Sharing some updates for my latest 3D printing project. This is a custom 3d printed oversized water holder for my car with adjustable LED lights. I scanned my dashboard with an free photogrammetry app called DisplayLand. It allows you to use your phone to scan any object, convert it to a 3D model, s...

Here's an update displaying my finished 3D Printed Mortal Kombat Cosplay Armor for the upper body. 3D models created in Maya and Z-brush and the files were 3D Printed on Raise 3d N2. The prints were then sanded, primed and finally airbrushed and hand painted with Acrylics. A clear coat was applied t...

Mask is complete! New video update below.

Haven't updated this forever but finally got some work done on this! Got my airbrushes back up and running.

Base color are finished, time to move on to the weathering.

Hello fellow Raisers, Here's an update on my 3d Printed Apocalypse Bust printed on my Raise 3D N2+. I used Z-brush for the modeling and creation of the 3d Print files. Did quiet a bit of finishing work to the bust and I'm really happy how it turned out. Next step is to finish printing the neck armor...

Thanks Rob, trying to get some more work done. Halloween seems unlikely by now but trying to push thru.

Thanks Rob, Yea getting the hang of it, I had some peers use XTC3d and told me they tried the brush on technique you mentioned with some success. My mistake was that this piece was basically my first true prepping experience. Would have been good to experiment with smaller prints but I jumped in hea...

Looking good....brings back memories, huge fan of the series. I thought about his myself but at 5'8" just don't have the height. I modeled him and ed 209 years back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQRD8VKsmwU&t=6s

New video out! I break down the following: ► The initial concept and character design. ► 3d modeling and digital sculpting in Zbrush. ► The use of live booleans in Zbrush for designing and preparing the model for 3d printing. ► The 3d printing process along with showing time lapse footage on a Raise...

Thanks Vice!

I created a new video breaking down my modeling workflow for this piece.

Managed to get some work done this weekend on my Scorpion Shoulder Armor....looking to start deigning the forearm armor next. Armor sculpted in Z-brush and printed wit PLA on a Raise 3d N2+.

Got some gluing and sanding done this weekend. Trying to balance out the sanding between getting rid of the print lines but keeping the surface details. 35514083_607029686349257_3620194978514337792_o.jpg 35487985_607029599682599_2279839851274567680_o.jpg 35465370_607029633015929_8321230782148378624_...

The propmaker's approach to this kind of thing would be to print it in something like PLA, make a mold, and cast it (the strap-like bits might get sewn and distressed). I don't know where you're located, but in Los Angeles, Reynold's Advanced Materials could talk you through molding/demolding and r...

I would really like to actually build the black scaled body suit that he has. Would this be possible to do in a flexible material, especially the neck part as it will need to bend. I'm open to suggestions. I could also create a cast and mold it with some type of rubber, so that another option I coul...

Really nice work! Curious -- I do a lot of reverse engineering these days but it's usually in an engineering context. When you're designing things like the mask, what's your process for fitting it to the scanned data? Do you just model it close? Do you snap it to the scanned geometry? Thanks! Well ...

Scorpion Shoulder Armor has been quiet a challenge so far. Two different designs and numerous sizing changes. After a couple of tweaks to the models and some failed prints, I got all the final parts printed. This weekend we glue, sand and prime! These is the final design that I decided to print. 352...
