Rabbit said:
yes. do you have plans to unfold these? would you just unfold the solidier head?

Me?  Heck no---I just tape paper together.  I have no ability at all with unfolding stuff.  
 
Rabbit said:
okay so insanely noob sounding, how do you open and use OBJ files?
you need pepakura designer to open .obj files , .obj files are not unfolded you need to unfold them yourself
And when you save your work it converts to .pdo
but u need full version of designer to save
 
yup. nope. not buying the program and not talented enough to unfold shiz. im just gonna sit this one out until someone else unfolds. for now the AvP peps will do  nicely.
 
sorry for the double post. but the paper model of Eddie is coming together. slowly but surely, hoping to finish the model today, and wait for a nice warm day to fiberglass him then onto sculpting.

Is that the two part pep file with the detachable dome? I was thinking of using that file for my xeno head . . . . It looks pretty good.
 
I'm looking to make a cheap Starship Troopers MI helmet. There's a PDO file for it here on p 27 of this thread, but it's wayyy too small, and I don't have Designer to enlarge it.  If someone could repost a version of that scaled up to about 9 inches across, I would be very very grateful.  :)

it is, but i dont recommend building the dome, its kind of a waste of time it looks odd when sitting on the under structure.

Got it.  Lose the dome.  :)

Never mind---downloaded the free version of Designer. I can't save the upscaled file, but at least I can resize it and print it out. All pepakura'd up and resin is drying as we speak.  :)

It's not a very detailed model, but it's better-looking than the improvised helmet I got now.

I'll post build vid once I'm all done.

i have a alien head pep file for you its a 2 part but u can use both 1 is frome the movie aliens with the rigid head and the second is a slip cover that makes it a smooth dome alien from alien vs predator

I'm not sure I'm getting this. Why is there 2 parts? 2 different kinds of alien head, or are they supposed to be attached to each other? Also, when zooming out in Pepakura Designer, some peices are just laying around in the upper right corner outside the 2D surface...

One part is the complete xeno head with rough ridges on the top, like the ones in "Aliens".  The other part is just the smooth dome by itself, which if you want you can place on the other part to make the smooth-domed xeno seen in the original "Alien". 

But Rabbit reports that the dome doesn't look very good when attached to the other piece. So my plan is to drop the dome.

Done.  Build vid for foamie MI helmet is in the "Transmissions" section, in the Starship Troopers costume thread.
 
So I have a huge favor to ask :) I'm building a 3D model of the original Predator for an animation (fan film; non-profit).

I have most of his stuff roughed out, but I'm really struggling with his gauntlets (left and right), backpack and cannon + mount. I was wondering if it would be possible to obtain OBJ versions of anyone's P1 armor files so that I have a better mesh to start with. It'd be a huge time saver!

I would, of course, thank whoever decides to help me out in the animation :)

Sorry man :) That head is to be used in the film (spent months on it), I might release it after I complete it though.

Hi everybody! I'm a new hunter here, but I have been following this thread (among others) religiously for a while. I finally buckled down and started building my first armor set using a lot of Movieman's pepakura files. I wanted to ask if anyone could direct me to a P1 armor pepakura file/directory/thread as well as a female hunter chest armor pepakura file (if one exists)? I've looked through a lot of threads here already for a pepakura file for the P1 armor, but it seems that most people who do P1 threads make it with foam sheets (which i don't mind doing, but i would like to do a paper version for scale/sizing). And now that I have started my armor, my girlfriend wants to make one too. Again, I went through as many threads as i could find for a Huntress chestplate of any kind and I did find a couple that seem like theyre in the ballpark of what the GF wants. I was also considering using the Skyrim Daedric Female Torso Armor pep files that can be found everywhere and modifying them a bit. But if anybody has the pep files for any of these thing I would very greatly appreciate it if you could direct me there.

Also, Movieman you are the man! love your pep files! I'll post some pictures soon of the pieces i have built already (bio mask, avp shoulders, and currently working on backpack).
 
 sadly what you are looking for dont exsist right now, p1 only has a few parts but not the full armor....as for miss predator....i wish there were armor for her, my gf wants one too but i also serched the web off and on and i had no luck either
