.... DO THIS! A scaled back portion in urethane/latex/whatever you want that can slightly clamshell onto a skull cap would be perfect to me. I always end up tearing my skull caps (that doesn't sound creepy) so this would allow me to have a durable back with a replaceable cap. LOVE IT.

haha I have no idea if I'll do Robocop. Maybe one day when I shave my head so I don't have to contend with hair in the helmet. I love the costume and I'd love to see someone do the metal "skull" but this costume is nowhere near the forefront for me.

If you have the chance you should try making a pep for it for others like it was suggested!
 
Re: Robocop: The Original for Pepakura

Well, since some of my modeling software was corrupting my files, I have spent the day uninstalling and reinstalling programs to get back to work. The only high point of this is that I got to work on a 'Murphy head' in a couple of programs I'm pretty sure weren't giving my computer gremlins. Anyways, everything is reinstalled and it looks like it's working the way it should, so back to the chest work. Lesson learned, when rendering, save often and BACK EVERYTHING UP DAILY. Loving the external drive right now. :thumbsup

The texuring is making him look great, but the mesh needs tlc.

Re: Robocop: The Original for Pepakura

I took advantage of my newly-replaced software to get the chest into shape. I modeled the shoulder rings to be separate in Pepakura to make pepping a little easier.

Re: Robocop: The Original for Pepakura

Starting to divide the proto suit into the individual files. The individual files are as follows:

Helmet- 3 pieces
Neck wrap- 1 piece, still working out sectioning*
Chest-3 pieces (2 shoulder ring assemblies)
Lower torso- 2 pieces (abdomen and cod)

Biceps- 1 piece each (not symmetrical)
Forearm- 1 piece each? still working out sectioning*

Thighs- 1 piece each (not symmetrical)
Shins- 2 pieces each? still working out sectioning*
Feet- 1 piece body & 1 hinged toe section each*
Leg Pistons- 2 pieces each

* still finishing detailing

The pieces that will need to be scaled together are bicep+forearm and the thigh+shin. I have modeled gloves, but they need a lot of work so I'm stepping away from those now.
Sorry for the delay in releasing files, but I though it was a bad idea to start before the chest was scaled properly. I am hoping to have the chest ready for unfold before Monday. I am setting the scaling this evening, the helmet will (as usual) be in a different scale than the suit components. I would like to build a helmet test file.

Re: Robocop: The Original for Pepakura

Really cool start! I once shared a dressing room with a promo guy who put on a Robo cop fiberglass suit supplied by the studio. Only problem was he put the calf pieces on backward...didn't notice till I reviewed a photo of us together later . It looked like someone had turned his shins backward! ....ha! Keep going .....want to see the finished suit.

That's hilarious :lol

The chest is being unfolded now, followed shortly by the lower torso and cod pieces. As pieces are finished, I'll update in the first post, along with file and scale information. Thanks for being patient!

Re: Robocop: The Original for Pepakura

Your 3D work is amazing!
Like everyone that has seen this thread I'm waiting with baited breath for a look at the finish product.

Keep up the fantastic work.
 
Re: Robocop: The Original for Pepakura

and here is the chest in full foam glory:

robocop chest by laellee foam template by gaiatron - Download - 4shared

note: some details like the air vent on the right breast, and on the battery pack(dunno what its called) located on the back, can be etched, traced or stenciled using hot soldering rod or heated up flat head precision screw driver so you wont be having a hard time gluing parts on the details.

enjoy your chest build guys and gals.

When the foam template is connected like that, how do you cut it up? Or do you really have to print it like that :confused
Click to expand...

refer to JFcustom's speed foam pepping technique.:cool

when printing, be sure that the "print alignment marks" option is set.
 
Re: Robocop: The Original for Pepakura

is this going to be made available as a paper pep file at all? i know it takes a lot longer to do that but i think i speak for a lot of people when i say i'd very much appreciate it!
