@lucpet: Awesome! Thanks for sharing the work in progress images; looking forward to seeing your final version of the helmet!

For the cloth: I used some superglue and sandwiched it between the ClothEye and ClothMouth parts like so:

The other parts that are in the image were for the facial prosthetics but I never completed them. They are not used on the helmet. Friction with the registration keys are all I used to hold the helmet together while wearing it (same for the face plate.) You could add some magnets to help solidify it if needed :slight_smile:

Thanks for sharing the link!

this thread is awesome are the stl files available

#65

Ofc this looks amazing. By any chance did you make templates for the suit/chestplate? or did you go free hand?

#66

Hey! Thanks for the files! This is an amazing piece and I started making my own. I am printing in ABS because thats all my school has on them but warping is not a problem so far as I can see (I have only printed 3 parts and have another on the way) I used kapton tape to just hold it together to take this picture because i ran out of normal tape haha…

I have two question:

  1. Is 1/4 pound epoxy sculpt enough?

  2. Are you planning to make templates from foam for the rest of the suit?

Thanks a ton. I just finished the electronic shopping and all I need to do is gather money and buy them! I need to mae some money before I can buy the paint and primer ect. Great tutorial and amazing piece of work!

@smasherpredator: Gumroad link has an STL version free for download

@ProfPorpoise: Looking great!! Thanks for sharing the image! For your questions: 1/4 lb of Apoxie Sculpt should be enough, I used it to reinforce the joint sections. (I think there is around an $8 difference between 1/4lbs and 1lbs of the material. You can purchase it off of Amazon which is nice.)

I have plans on making a full suit at some point however this is a ways off. I just free-handed the flooring foam tiles for the initial chest piece. Eventually my goal is to make templates and CNC them out of the foam. I need to find a working Tardis to make some time to do this thou :slight_smile:

Looking forward to seeing your final result!

So i have just bought the file and did not notice it would be a ztl file, in which i do not have ZBrush. Is there anyway to convert it to an stl or obj file?

#69

@Yodarules2: The main gumroad link has *.ZTL, *.STL, and *.X3G versions of the helmet free for downloading.

Here are the direct links to each of the file types:

ZBrush Decimated *.ZTL: https://gumroad.com/l/ZHXV
3D Printing *.STL: https://gumroad.com/l/FnuNz
Makerbot Replicator 2 *.X3G: https://gumroad.com/l/focTb

Cheers,

Awesome walktrought man. thanks for sharing

I’ve downloaded Zbrush trial, exported the ZTL file as an OBJ, downloaded Meshmixer, converted to Solid, Next using Autodesk Inventor I’m modifying the model to make the character Handles. This is for my ultimate robot collection.

I was going to just dremel the cyberman helmet toy but that was a totaly different design. So I’m greatful you’ve done this work.
