Power Armor T-51b 1:1 papercraft model

[toudi_sk]

latest progress → front reflector , all pieces together still without glue and size fail


now must complete left "rubber" hose

what's next? making one that's colored?

at first I must successfully ending betatest (make certain of shapes right dimensions etc)
than maybe we convinced him to make color version too

(must speech skill boost at 180-200%)

creator Esy primary designed this papercraft model to making "real" armor,
using laminated plastic, body filler and color spray

[OT]
my pet strikes back

[/OT]

 

[toudi_sk]

and paper torture continue


uff, I finally finish those pieces of cake

you see all tools, except PC, printer and internet, whichs necessary to assembling this model

 

[monsharen]

pure excellency. You really make me want to try this someday

 

[toudi_sk]

You really make me want to try this someday

I wish, you do this

now I must go assembling bottom of helmet and "try" place rubber hoses to their positions
but this operation will be critical

and need help, when I will someone convinced to make color versions (New, Used, Old- Tribal's look from F2),
need some good pics of this versions, can you post here some originals, if exists
or you all can create some of your visions, maybe right to pics from pepakura views

 

[toudi_sk]

Mr. Badass assembly still without glue



and what happens before

practically_____tagging _____rear
planimetry_____shapes_____ look



rubber hoses cant place at right position, but its not my fault
really need cut-out edge, but not 1 like noob/lamer/geek/nerd


but at least 5 last edges from both sides


in game are few polygon collisions not a big problem

but I cant helmet put on head, maybe yes, but with problem,
in case of resizing of +10- 15 % must be comfortable for ALL sizes on heads

That is really badass, and it's very accurate as well, nice job!

 

[Lexx]

Mr. Awesome is on the phone, toudi. He want's to talk to you.

Man, I wish I wouldn't have two left hands, heh. Then I would build my own helmet too.


Also if you have finished the helmet, I am tense for your live sized power armor body.

 

[Jesterka]

Fucking hell, damn Czech(oslovak)s. What a nation of nutty handymans (I'm some kind of weird exception - amateurish as fuck, quite regurarly spilling my afternoon tea out, milled sugar on the whole fucking floor, causing an epic traffic accidents, etc.)

 

[Continuum]

Damn, this is amazing! And crazy!

What next? Highwaymen in 1:1 scale?

 

[toudi_sk]

What next? Highwaymen in 1:1 scale?

hmm
maybe no problem
all what Esy need, is a 3D model , like this helmet from F3

Kahgan: thx

Jesterka & Lexx & Continuum : what is this against YOUR great work - only piece of cake
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and now:
____latest progress______________________all sticked with glue

and from back side


watchful look of my project leader


and final look



now must build 2 plug-in connectors with cable, 2 buttons and helmet is finished

 

[toudi_sk]

left and right side


Fallout with love and Top Project Leader do output quality control


when I finish 2 buttons, make finaly "walkaround" pictures in daylight

 

[Josan12]

Man that is awesome. have you tried wearing it? Is it too small?
Maybe it will fit your project leader?

 

[toudi_sk]

have you tried wearing it? Is it too small?

sure I try, its a bit small, but with force sure can wear it

if cut out 1cm wide strip like in picture, sure can wear it comfortable



but its not my style , this helmet I promised to vaultmaster Chekotay
at madbrahmin.cz to his good hands

I will build color model 1:6 like Tribal Look
but still missing another pictures of this nice version of helmet

if I in future make helmet for "daily" use, maybe like this plastic bucket half-breed with
tin can of silver color and this paper model

but sure I will inform you about this activities

Why don't these people post their pics over here? The second one looks great, but it looks ridiculous on that guy's head. A tad too small, I think. The size of the first one looks much better, but the colour is off and it looks too "stormptrooper" to me.

I'll just post them here, 'cause people are too lazy to click links, I think. And people need to see this.

Hello, I build the last one showed obove...

Here are some more Pics:

Ligth works:

Ermm...jo XD

If you have any more Questions about it, or if you want to see more pics, then ask or say it

 

[Mafio]

I aint like the Paperversion, either.

to much edges and just a quantum of durability


Urlags Helmet is atleast more stable even if its made of old Newspaper.


The Plasikthing seems to be the Best i think this one is made with a Vakuumtable like the Stormtrooper helmets, yo know.

 

[toudi_sk]

Mafio, this is sure not for daily use but you can build it, stick on it old newspaper,
use emery paper to round off edges, create vacuum form etc

you have a many odds

if you want to see more pics, then ask or say it

thx and sure I will, its my purpose to find creators of those great helmets

Here is a Video where you can see the Helmet in "action"
