Dude you gotta show us more of the costume man the first part is amazing 👏 I'm gonna start 3D printing after watching ur stuff use inspired me amazing stuff thank you
Use a thin gaiter glued to the neck pieces that goes under the cowl. Then you can use velcro on the outside of the gaiter to hold the cowl in place more. But this will cover any skin that may poke through and tie the pieces together in a way that still allows some movement.
That looks incredible! Although I do suggest that you soften the cheekbone area. It sticks out a bit to much so when you put it on you kind of look like an alien. It still looks amazing and it’s better than anything I could ever do.
Hopefully the next parts of the build come out soon but great work you inspired me to print the nikko cowl in tpu and it looks beautiful. Keep up the great work
If you rough up the tpu, you can apply creature cast as a base. Creature cast is a Neoprene material used for masks and cosplay. I use it on foam allot and the beauty os that you can sand it down and use any acrylic paint to dress it up.
You do good vids. I've tinkered with tpu a little bit, here's what I've done with clean up. After removing the big stuff I did some scraping to help it get rid of any lumps/jagged spots, then hit it with some heat. For the back where you sliced it, maybe some rivets and elastic strips might sufficient to keep it in place as well as for ease of taking it on and off. Looking forward to the next parts. Thanks for the content!
I know you went and showed your kids, I’d love to see that video and there reaction. Lol I ordered the Jupiter on kickstarter and I’m def going to do this.
I love this! I was looking at this suit myself and you inspired me to take the leap (plus the discounts help) I am so excited for the rest of this series
ive been wondering how feasible printing a batman neck piece in tpu would be but couldnt find any videos or posts on it, this video came at the perfect time
One thing about Nikko's files... they are built by someone with printing experience. He keeps orientation in mind. You should see this Battinson file I have. My gosh orientation is next to impossible. Looking at Nikko's file, printing this would be soooo much easier.
That would be awesome if you made a mold and casted the helmet! I think that would be a great video, I’ve been wanting to print a full cowl batman mask and make a mold but lack the knowledge
Why not design fasteners into the CAD file: post-and-hole or other snaptite-style fasteners like mfrs used to build into snaptite, glueless plastic models? Also, instead of TPU, why not silicone resin on the Transform for better resolution, fit, and finish? Just a few thoughts that may either improve things or not be doable for reasons my feebl mind cannot fathom. Fun stuff, though.
You should cast that neck piece (the cowl) in hard or medium silicone, for better mobility. I think those black 3d printed parts might prevent you from turning your head around. Otherwise beautiful work!
Hey Jessey. That's a very great big project you got there! You might want to add some magnets here and there to hold some pieces together while still being able to take them off separately. I only have a Ender 3. Do you think I can still make a project this big?
3D Printing looks so easy but you don't realize the problems that happen and it gets exhausting. I would make it all in PLA and or Resin and then cast it in a flexible material.
Yeah. Batman isn't concerned with aesthetics, only function. He wouldn't let his suit get too damaged to be functional (in normal circumstances), but he'd absolutely keep wearing one with some scuffs and battle damage.
Dude, I was super hesitant when I saw it was Robert Pattenson. I am warming up to the idea, but DC has played with my heart one too many times when it comes to the bat. Anywho, it is a great costume and I am super psyched about this!!

Gonna be like Keaton Batman where he had to turn his whole body lol
Haha 110%
Oh Good Lord that was/is awkward to watch
Looks like “neck injury” Batman after chasing the Joker through Walmart went bad.
Random Gothamite: Hey Batman, over here!
Batman: *moves entire body to look to the side*
I love TPU. Great stuff! Good to see you *really* excited about this project. Can’t wait to see it when complete!
Will there be a part 2?!
That looks incredible! Although I do suggest that you soften the cheekbone area. It sticks out a bit to much so when you put it on you kind of look like an alien. It still looks amazing and it’s better than anything I could ever do.
This was so awesome!!! Im glad somebody finally took this on!! Great job!
So dang excited for this one. Chest piece printing right now 🤘
@@UncleJessy dude..YES!! Cant wait man!!! 🦇
@@UncleJessy Are you going to make anymore videos of this build?
Yes!! I am so stoked for this!
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!! THANKS MAN!!
The man himself!
Terrific collaboration!
gotta try printing it with flexible resin!! dope vid
you use the flexible resin to create molds, to pour the flexible resin
Did a part 2 of this ever come out? I cant find it anywhere
Can't wait for more videos in this series, for the TPU pieces you might be able to fill and clean up the print with a 3D Printing pen.
Ohhh great call! Will add that to my list. Will for sure be putting out a video testing out TPU cleanup options.
AWESOME Job!!! Looking Forward to the Series.
Hopefully the next parts of the build come out soon but great work you inspired me to print the nikko cowl in tpu and it looks beautiful. Keep up the great work
for the TPU i think you could try liquid latex on the defects and a couple of coats of plasti dip on top.
Yeppers full video on TPU cleanup testing coming soon
This is going to be so cool!
Thanks man!!
Man I love your laugh and passion. Your laugh after making the neck piece 😂😂
Try some magnets to connect the cowl and neck piece, that way they stay in place but won't break if you move around too much
If you rough up the tpu, you can apply creature cast as a base. Creature cast is a Neoprene material used for masks and cosplay. I use it on foam allot and the beauty os that you can sand it down and use any acrylic paint to dress it up.

Use neodym magnet on the inside to close the seam
Do you sell the Batman Helmet? If so how much?
Great job! It looks Amazing!
looks really good!! what if the cowl also in TPU
I was debating on reprinting it in that
@@UncleJessy please... :)
I would,
@@leavethekidsalone I’m printing my Batman cowl in TPU today. Wish me luck
I know you went and showed your kids, I’d love to see that video and there reaction. Lol I ordered the Jupiter on kickstarter and I’m def going to do this.
Love this! Very nice work and I love seeing the different approaches that you took for each piece. 👍🏻
I love this! I was looking at this suit myself and you inspired me to take the leap (plus the discounts help) I am so excited for the rest of this series
How did it come out?
have you done it?
Watching u get excited about chin and neck piece and then redoing in purple made me want to get into this so badly now!
So cool can’t wait to build my own
Love Nikko!
ive been wondering how feasible printing a batman neck piece in tpu would be but couldnt find any videos or posts on it, this video came at the perfect time
Looks dope 👍
Paint some stitching lines along the nose,eyes n ears section
You should use black elastic strips for the neck piece to keep it secure
Looks amazing when you finishing the cosplay
At 8:30 roughly, what tool is that that is used to scrape/pry off? Home made? Bought? I need that in my life.
One thing about Nikko's files... they are built by someone with printing experience. He keeps orientation in mind. You should see this Battinson file I have. My gosh orientation is next to impossible. Looking at Nikko's file, printing this would be soooo much easier.
If you really wanted to go crazy you can print all of the flexible parts in PLA. Finish them with paint and then mold and cast them with latex
I would say to try put at least a few super magnets to the cowl to connect it to the helmet?? I know velco wouldn't be as good, but it's worth a shot
That would be awesome if you made a mold and casted the helmet! I think that would be a great video, I’ve been wanting to print a full cowl batman mask and make a mold but lack the knowledge
You can use maybe magnets to connect the pieces together
I am so excited for this!
Excellent look, he's Beardman! I look forward to the complete look.
Try velcro with elastic straps or buttons to fasten it down
This will be interesting. I have wondered about how painting the flexibles would go.
Has there been anything ever created that has brought more joy to the nerds than 3D printing? Maybe Big Bang Theory?
Lol how funny. Here I was on Reddit trying to tell you how to finish your prints with bondo. Had no idea it was you 😂
No worries mate 🤘🤣
Jessy, you always remind me that it is ok to be a full grown kid...LOL
The Pattinson Batman is starting to become one of my favorite Batman designs. So badass.
never finishes a series. Really wanted to see the rest
Great stuff. I am printing the same mask. What are your tpu settings and what nozzle.
Nikko is a great guy and that cowl is A.W.E.S.O.M.E!
u can put belt or somewhat an elastic material
So cool! I am going to make on for me and 2 for my boys, thanks!

great vid. Every time you put the helm on you you do the Batman voice just because its Baman
Looks crazy awesome.......👏👏👏, great work Jess
Do you think you'll keep the neck piece the same or are you gonna try and modify it so you can move your head around more?
Still up in the air on that. I was debating on reprinting it with maybe 1 wall and zero infill to see how much more flexible it might be
Thanks for sharing your passion with the world keep it going
You should cast that neck piece (the cowl) in hard or medium silicone, for better mobility. I think those black 3d printed parts might prevent you from turning your head around. Otherwise beautiful work!
Hey Jessey. That's a very great big project you got there! You might want to add some magnets here and there to hold some pieces together while still being able to take them off separately.
I only have a Ender 3. Do you think I can still make a project this big?
Woah dude! Lookin NICE!
We need a drinking game for every time @uncle jessy says "run off."
Looks really good!
I need part 2!
3:35 get some adruino in there and get some servo assistance !
I would consider coating the tpu in black plastidip to cover the layer issues.
3D Printing looks so easy but you don't realize the problems that happen and it gets exhausting. I would make it all in PLA and or Resin and then cast it in a flexible material.
Are you printing all the pieces with the 0.6 nozzle but at 0.2 layer height? It all looks amazing.
uncle jessy finish the series!!!
Out of the 3d printers you had used in the video. Which one would be a good printer to start out with as a beginner?
Love the bat grimace
Now that’s a perfect size scale
May want to leave some of those imperfections to give it a more natural look.
I was thinking the same thing. I’m not a big fan of “clean” “perfect” costumes.
Even more so for Batman
Yeah. Batman isn't concerned with aesthetics, only function. He wouldn't let his suit get too damaged to be functional (in normal circumstances), but he'd absolutely keep wearing one with some scuffs and battle damage.
@@UncleJessy could smooth some of those problem areas down with a plastic welder (ie a plastic soldering iron)
"If you are justice! Please do not lie"
What did you scale it at for your head just curious as a starting point
Dude, I was super hesitant when I saw it was Robert Pattenson. I am warming up to the idea, but DC has played with my heart one too many times when it comes to the bat.
Anywho, it is a great costume and I am super psyched about this!!
I read if u melt it , makes it more brittle over some time ?
Followup video?
Awesome! Could please share the settings you used when printing this out with TPU?
acetone don't do the job to smooth the prints ?
Wild just how much faster bambu has made printing expectations. 54 hours, lol.
i think if u went .5 percent thinner on the neck u might be able to move your neck? idk never used flexible filament that big lol
nice bat suit... love it
One word.... AWESOME!!!
Looking great
Thanks for sharing :-)
Hi uncle jessy if you are thinking about urethane for batman cowl then you want look into smooth on rebound 25 make mold of the the batman cowl
Why doesn't the SLA printers have a resin reservoir to replenish as it prints?
Formlabs printers have a cartridge system that automatically refills the tray.
@@FranklyWry I look forward to owning one of them for my own mask making. The next level is a sensor that alerts you some way when that one runs out.
What’s the brand of the 3D printer or what is the best quality because I’m trying to get a good 3D printer but don’t know which one to get
Do you sell your masks ? And can you make a captain falcon helmet ?
What? No "I'm Batman!"
I love the enthusiasm. Good stuff!
How much does a good 3D printer cost ideally?
Btw sainsmart has purple tpu
Truly remarkable. Thanks for sharing your work.
Any update on the build? I’m starting to work on a suit of armor as well! Keep up the fantastic videos. I’m a huge fan!
How has it turned out?
Does nikko industies have eva foam templates included in that? Im trying to find the best templates but if not i think ill use xieng prods version.
No, it’s just the 3D Stl files
@MindCandy Podcast if you wanted to you could print at least half of the cowl and then put duct tape on and make a pattern off of it.
I've been wanting to get into cosplay and wanted to find a good and affordable printer. Could you give me some advice?
damn man i admire that you actually used tpu with supports x.x
Haha I saw people saying it wasn’t a good idea but 🤷♂️💪💪 and they came off haha
@@UncleJessy u tha real mvp
looks amazing!! ill follow your work till the end of times! cheers!
Looks like a very cool neck brace 🤣
