Aloy's Banuk Sickness Eater Headdress

This is my first-ever 3D project! My favorite game right now is Horizon Zero Dawn. I'm obsessed with Aloy's costumes, particularly her skull-like machine headpieces, so I decided to model one of them. To tackle this challenge, I learned Zbrush to create the headdress and used the Lulzbot Taz and Lulzbot Mini at my local library to print out the pieces from ABS. I stuck with the default print settings for the Lulzbot in Cura. Once the printed parts were ready, I sanded each one thoroughly before bonding them together using ABS dissolved in acetone. After filling in the seams and sanding again, I applied a white base coat with spray paint before adding distressed textures with acrylic paint and metallics. Finally, I sewed the fabric pieces together and attached them to the headdress via the channels on the front. The best part of this project is that now I get to feel like Aloy! Thanks for checking it out.
