prusaprinters

<p>Jebediah Kerman from the game Kerbal Space Program in his IVA suit.<br/> the suit is a mix from the different suits that the game had along the different versions, cinematics and the ACES suit.</p> <p>I printed it at 250%, .08 layer height on my ender 2. It took 60 hours total.<br/> But if you print it at 100%, .2 layer height, it takes under 6 hours.</p> <p>It was painted by my mother with acrylic paint. (I'm a bad painter, I can't paint inside the lines)</p> <p>The visor was made with vacuum forming. There is an stl for the visor itself, and one for a vacuum forming mold.<br/> I used a homemade vacuum forming machine 20cm* 20cm and a .2 mm acetate sheet. If you have one thicker, the better.</p> <p>update 1:<br/> I'm adding a full body mesh by request. but I strongly recommend you to print it in pieces.</p> <p>Q&amp;A:</p> <p>The Head doesn't go through the helmet. (?)<br/> The head has to enter through the visor opening.</p> <p>How to orient the prints, and where to put support on an FDM machine?<br/> I included a Pic with my Gcode</p> <p>What paint did you use?<br/> Acrylics; many different brands.</p> <p>What specific colors?<br/> What I had at hand. I don't have the names.</p> <p>How did you made the clear visor?<br/> With vacuum Forming and acetate, There is a Pic of my homemade machine.<br/> If you want to know more search "vacuum Forming" on youtube.</p> <p>Are you going to include: EVA suit/ valentina/ bill/ bob/ other facial expressions/ other poses?<br/> No in the immediate future. If enough people Show interest I might consider it.</p> <p>Can I print and sell this model?<br/> Yes, the only restriction is attribution, so make sure to include my name and a link. And i'm not responsible if "take2" unleash their lawyers upon you.</p> <p>Do I have to pay you something to you to sell this model?<br/> You don't HAVE TO, But I appreciate very much if you do. (And I can't speak in behalf of Take2 and their lawyers.)</p> <p>How Much do you want?<br/> I don't know. It's more about the gesture than about the money.<br/> To be honest; I never received any Tip from my models. (and only one people asked me) And I saw them for sell at Etsy and other markets. So I don't have high hopes.<br/> I don't want to put my work behind a paywall. And I know that 1 USD can be a lot to some people. (In the country were I live, the salary is the half and everything costs double) But if you are going to sell this, I appreciate if you make the effort to tip me.<br/> If you are going to tip me money through PayPal, don't send a dollar at a time. PayPal has a fee of 5.4% + 0.30 USD. It takes a big chunk of small transactions. Gather at least 10 USD before tiping me.</p> Category: Art
