«When Kostya invited me to participate in this project, first I did not quite understand what we need to do, and most importantly - how it all realized. Creating a model from scratch would be a long and laborious process, so we decided to take a sample model and bring it to the desired state. Initially tried to alter the model for the paper pattern, but she was in a sad, so that took a more appropriate model of artistic and since she began modeling. " Blockquote>
3D Max - package for working with 3rd dimensional models - provides a wide range of tools, so the main work has been done in it. Overlaid materials, photographs, diagrams, started to work. Model costume is an external sort of "armor" kinogeroya, so the main work - the removal of all unnecessary, alignment interconnected parts of the model (but it is important to comply with the maximum similarity with the original!) I spent a lot of time on the adaptation of the model, but it was worth it.
The result of our work was this:
Further, there was a problem Resizing under me, we decided it quite original. Taken from the Kinect Xbox360. Connect the scanner to the computer on windows 8.1, used the standard programs OSes, though had to download multiple drivers and long enough to retry the process of scanning. The result was something like that.
Get the exact size in 3D, it was necessary to combine them with smodelirovannymym suit.
Calibrate every detail of the costume had to separate proportional resizing armor made unfit for use. As a result, he looked at me like that.
Now is the time of the press, and I am very pleased that the printer did not disappoint. Printing was done on PICASO 3D Designer using the program POLYGON FOR DESIGNER ver.1.3.
And here is how the item looks in the program and after printing:
After the whole costume will be printed, I have a very long and tedious process step, painting and assembly. Of course, not as Tony Stark, but not too fast. And it will be the subject of a separate article.
At this point do not set. Because the suit continues to be created. In the end, the movie character built it not for one day. So that we have a small reserve time! ..
And yet - that's the time and material (in the sense - the material, not money) costs.
It seems that someone has a lot of free time ...
As for the amount spent plastic: not all details have been designed successfully on the first try. After the development, printing and fitting some of the details had to redo and print again. When printing complex parts have to use the support that is printed in the same ABSom, it takes quite a lot of material. This project is being implemented with the support of REC (thanks to them for natural plastic), so I can only orientate in terms of spent plastic - 30-35 coils.
