Re: MF's Iron Man Helmet Builds
Mark 42 Build Starts Here:
Hey guys! A year is a long enough time to go without updating, right?
Essentially, I started this build thread with a friend when I was 16, now 20. The Mark 3 helmet we started with did eventually get finished, but after a failed molding and realizing it wasn't too accurate or well crafted, we more or less lost hope in that build. After a while, we then printed the Mark 45 that I modeled, but nothing really came of that since we were only really building it because it was new at the time, and not because we liked it. My buddy printed Gimpee's helmet (post above) and he finished that and loves it. I always feel a bigger sense of pride doing things myself, so I decided to make the Mark 42 Helmet since that is the one I love the most. I modeled the helmet a while back but just recently started printing it out and finishing it. The two videos below follow my progress of the build. Do note, that the helmet in the first video was actually sold, and I am currently printing/finishing a new one. More updates to come soon!
Some screen grabs from the finishing of the rear part of the helmet:
