=JJ= Industries: Kylo Ren Helmet

myminifactory

After watching that iconic first trailer, I knew I had to be involved in this character. Ever since then, I've been obsessed with all things Kylo Ren. This mask represents just a small fraction of the time I've spent researching his elements, from recreating his outer robe fabric at a mill to delving into the details of his costume. But enough about that. The time has come to release my source 3D files for my Kylo Ren Helmet V1 to the world for free. All I ask is that you credit me (http://www.facebook.com/JJIndustriesUK) and share your awesome prints with me on my page. Star Wars is something we can all share and love together, and through collaboration, we can lift each other's costume quality. Designing this helmet was a massive undertaking in the 3D world, taking almost five weeks to complete. I designed it entirely in Solidworks, refining the design for over 100 hours before I was happy to proceed. I went through four physical prototypes of domes before settling on one that was comfortable and looked good. Redistribution & Selling: This set of STL models are not to be redistributed by any other means than direct from MyMiniFactory.com. If you'd like to sell prints or cast my helmets, I'm okay with it as long as you cite me as the original creator with a link to my page in this format: Original Creator: =JJ= Industries - http://www.facebook.com/JJIndustriesUK. Furthermore, I'm happy for folks to take my helmet and remodel it to improve its accuracy. Please credit me again as the original creator. Happy making and may the Force be with you! Thanks: My wife Karen has been an enormous support throughout this project. While holding down a full-time job, she's had to deal with the long hours I spent designing, printing, finishing, and sanding. I've also received incredible support from the prop community on this project, with continuous well-wishers and positive messages during my development on the RPF. The group that emerged around delving into the details of Kylo Ren has been a fantastic place to be a part of. You all have given me an amazing welcome response, selling out my short run of helmets in no time. Thank you and enjoy! Love & Metal, Luke Maker =JJ= Industries http://www.facebook.com/JJIndustriesUK
