The Fay Mannequin

thingiverse

This model is my own body scan. I'm into cosplay (Batman mainly) and building costumes. Frequently, I need to put my costumes on a mannequin to work on them. It's nearly impossible to find a mannequin with your exact measurements or one that's in a neutral pose. So, I decided to have myself 3D scanned and printed myself. The 3D scan was done by leeway3Dstudio at Dublin Ireland; check them out. I posed in a way that makes it easy to work on all parts of a costume (i.e., fingers apart so you can work on gloves, arms out enough so they're not touching my sides). I think this mannequin would be useful for both costume makers and people who just want to display costumes. This seems to be how most actors pose when they are being scanned by movie studios for the making of their hero costumes. I've started printing myself on my Creality CR-10 printer, posting progress on my Instagram account @dark_knight_begins. There has been a lot of interest in the files, so I've decided to share them here. I've split up the model into pieces that make sense for a mannequin, in terms of getting clothes on and off of it. I've been hollowing out the model using mesh mixer as I go and cutting parts up to fit on my CR-10. Depending on your printer, you may need to split them up further. I'll upload the hollowed-out pieces here as I make them. I'm 181cm tall (almost six feet), chest size: 41 inches, waist size: 30 inches. Happy printing! And please, no sex toy application!
