Imagine have this guy as your dad. Your Halloween costumes would be LEGENDARY
If I ever became a dad man I’d make everyone jealous in world book day
I already did when I was in school to the point they had to make a rule when you have to show exactly which book it’s from and being the book in
So I did and I still won
Ironically I am making a MK 42 for my 7 yr old and MK 46 for my 5 yr old for Halloween and using Armorshmith for the first time so came across this video for some tips. ;)
I'm trying to make my daughter a panda mask for Halloween this year. Hopefully it works out!
Thanks so much for this. I've had armorsmith for a while and had no idea how to properly use it
Hi, do you think you can give me the program? If you want I can design a 3D model for you.
buy it yourself @@sekel9422 🤦♂
This video game me an interesting idea. I wonder how a high quality replica spandex suit of the MK85 would look over the armor. The 3D printed armor would give it shape but the spandex would still be able to stretch and move, giving that organic nano suit effect. I don't expect it would be as cool looking as the 3D printed suit but the effect it could have is a curious notion.
Feels illegal to be this early
Honestly
I’m calling the cops
It does indeed Frank.
Awesome..i just purchased this today, and have only had a quick look, didn't know you could manipulate parts so much, i just started using blender too, so being able to combine all the chest and back peices and then split it back up is really good to know.
This video is a lifesaver! I'm just starting on my first cosplay print and didn't know the Meshmixer trick, so I've been struggling for over an hour trying to get parts to fit properly in armorsmith until I saw this
Great advice again as always! Another thing you can do is when you import parts, you can just hold ctrl and click on multiple pieces. Armor smith will group them together as one piece. Then u can export it as single parts when you are done modifying them.
This is exactly what I need, thank you! Free-form scaling on specific bits of armor was the precise problem I needed solved
Frank as always thank you brother, for this video! I have had so many bad fit pieces and it has been driving me bananas. With this here video I can now move forward with my builds. Thank you!
This is the video the people have been waiting for!!! Great job brotha !!!
Great episode Frank. Have had Armorsmith for 2 years and didn't know how the stuff you just told us.. Thank you.
been watching your vids for sometime and they have heled me greatly . i just downloaded armor smith , ty for all your hard work and help
you are by far 1 of the best tutorials ive found appreciate you ant what you do so much man
THANK YOU SO MUCH, my first printer comes in 2 days and I can’t wait to make halo armor!
This is incredibly helpful, thank you! Almost ready to take those first steps towards making my own MK 39
And back into the project I go, was waiting for more details on how to use this program!! Thanks!
Perfect timing! Just bought Armorsmith last weekend and have struggling with it. This video should help a lot.
Been playing around with this program for a while, off and on. Some pretty great insights Frank. Great as always.
Just bought my first 3d printer and this videos have helped so much. I can't wait to finish my first suit of armor.
EXACTLY the tute I was looking for. Much appreciated.
Great software! I bought it a few months ago and it’s worked out great for sizing Halo armour.
Thx great video, I’ve been using this for years and I just learned a bunch of new tricks
Awesome video Frank 👌 cool to see how Armorsmith works I will definitely be getting it
Your videos and channel are amazing. Thank you for sharing all of this information.
This is an amazing guide I understand perfectly now
The G. O. A. T has done it again💪🙌
The mark 85 is constructed of Gold-titanium nanoparticles and Nanties that forms a fibrous wetweb that sound and feels like metal but flex like fabric
Another brilliant video
I just started 3d printing because I also want to make an Ironman suit. I've been watching your videos for a while and have to say that your channel helps me the most for that, a big THANK YOU
I think you help thousands of people with your videos, even if you don't get the feedback for it, be aware of it and therefore thank you, thank you, thank you, please continue
YESSSSS MORE VIDEOS
This video has been so helpful. Thank you
Really great info. Love armorsmith now.
Thanks so much, Just about to embark on my first full suit. Wish me luck
Thank you for this video, just got a neptune 3 max to do cosplay prints and this should help me narrow down what i need to adjust.
Thanks for the tutorial!
SO SO SO Cool.Really great info.
Clean transition👌
Amazing, I'm just about to scale praetorian guard and a mk85. This will help alot
Hoping to get my first 3d printer at the end of July! Until then haven't been able to stop watching your channel! Amazing content thank you for the inspiration to start this journey. I cannot wait!
Nice! What printer are you thinking of getting?
@@Electro2040k I want to get the either the elegoo Neptune 3 or the 3 plus
Downloading this program now for my Dr fate
More tutorials let’s go!!
I've been waiting for this video! Thank you!
Question for you or anyone else who has done fully 3d printed cosplays - how much bodyshopping goes into it?
For example, I'm working on a Samus cosplay (my first fully 3d printed cosplay), and I want to make the arms decently tight. I got a good fit in Armorsmith, but the openings of the forearm are much more narrow than the rest of the forearm. I'm planning on printing it, and bodyshopping the openings to widen them. Maybe also thinking of cutting the forearm in half length-wise and attaching it around my arm with some velcro or magnets.
Picked up armorsmith about the same time you dropped this video and only now just saw it.. after pulling out my hair regarding front/back chest pieces haha
Frank coming in clutch again.
Thank you so much, i'm finally getting started on my Mark V Halo armor and i had no clue what i was doing with Armorsmith
How did it work out? Wanna 3d print a halo armor too but i have to get myself Into 3d Printig first.
@ugur0289 well, let me tell ya life picked up speed and here i am 7 months later, with really nothing to show sadly
The last few months I've been taking a break from 3d printing to focus on more important life stuff you know? But in april I'm gonna jump back in and start again
Great video 👍 💯 👍
Foot shape (length/bridge) is determined by our walking gait, and can change due to the length of stride.
If you're repeatedly wearing something that causes your walking posture to alter, you might want to factor that into any future builds.
I've been interested in 3d printing but life got in the way but now I have time and found your videos. Scaling armor is a big concern because I would like to do cosplay (late to the game at age 57) and as a bigger guy (6' 2" at 255lbs) this has been a concern. Thanks for the videos and especially the details for scaling armor.
A pretty cool program tool that enables suit builders to work with a customer that wants a suit from you but lives across the country.
Helmet wise I have model heads that I load in cura with the helmet to make sure it fits lol
This helped so much in the start of making an iron man suit
I hope frank realizes how much more accessible he makes cosplaying for anybody who wants to get into it
Bro been trying to get my sons armor to fit. This may help. Thanks
Very informative thank you...
i didnt know you could change color on there, that will help a bit im sure for my mando. can you do multiple colors on one file though? my bucket has a lot of details that i wanna toy around with
so i followed your tutorial for armorsmith rescaled helmet to fit my head, and saved it as an stl. but when i opened it up in slicer it was way bigger than it should be
You should make the prowler (miles morales) helmet from across the spider verse
Also thx for hearting my comment u got me into 3d printing
Hey, I’ve been trying to make my own cosplay for an upcoming con and am having trouble with making compound eyes for my helmet, any suggestions?
the new mark 85 suit that you said you're building kinda reminds me of when Ben got the completed omnitrix at the end of ultimate alien
Hi, I'm relatively new to 3d printing and cosplay and that kind of thing, firstly love your work, the giant flexy rexy on tiktok is brilliant. My question for you is how would you solve a 5ft6/7 puppet fitting a 7ft armour suit like master chief or robocop, iron-man that kind of thing
Do you have any advice or tips about scaling for flexible materials? Could scaling a for the smallest size and using an elastic filament give you sufficient grip on a (lightweight) part to avoid the need for a harness?
Can u do the doom guy outfit or the helmet?
Do you have any experience with resin printers and im thinking the flexible resin specificly 🤔 happen to see another video on it recently and it made me think of Tony's flexing backplate maybe done entirely in gold resin 🤔 but also at that point I feel a body fit silicone (bodysuit in place of those parts so it moves more fluidly with the body. I'm just brainstorming things and liked the thought
Curious if there's an import image function for overlaying an image of yourself to better help scaling. Would be a good thing to have to make things a lot easier.
Is it possible to scan individuals and then import that data set into Armoursmith?
(I'm guessing that'd be easier than measuring then inputting each individual bit of data).
What causes filament to peel away from itself during the print process?
Yo can u make knulls Symbiot sword from marvel
Just got a printer big help
im new, have you ever had/thought of doing a giveaway in some way? (yes i am finding an excuse to get my hands on this stuff lol) your stuff and content is awesome, keep it up!
I do giveaways all the time haha 😂
i put my measurements into armorsmith and it bumped my chest size from 113 cm to 143 cm, and changed some of my other measurements as well.
Would this software help in printing a life size alligator? I'm trying to figure out how to print in pieces on my ender 5 plus.
Question, can you print the avatar itself? To make a custom mannequin?
How do I add 3D printed files into the program?
Thank you so much for this video. Trying to make a female Iron Man costume. And with this Programm it is hopefully a easier to fit it to a female body❤
I have a quick question. Does the program also have milimeter option?
hoodie and sweat pants absolutely the way to go
I see a few new comments saying not to trust armorsmith but i still want it for halo cosplay so can i trust it or not?
I got the war machine mark 3 from do3d. Is there another way to combine the pieces together on armorsmith? Tried the meshmixer method but the parts would stack on each other not auto align
cant help but feel bad for starboost in the intro
I’m literally eating a nacho bell grande while watching. 🤣🤣🤣
how'd you get your forearm for the mk 85 like that? mine is seperated and i got the same one from Do3d
$40 to have software fat shame me....thanks Frank.
Seriously though, my very first go at Armorsmith made my stormtrooper armor fit perfectly
Hi, do you think you can send me the program through a link? If you want I can design a 3D model for you.
Where do you get your 3D printers?
Quick question … if you create a 3D scan of your body can you import this as your avatar?
How do you measure your spine by yourself?
Hi! does anyone know why my armor garage is crashing as soon as I upload a file? any help would be appreciated! thank you!
I bought this program a few months back and my stomach is kinda stuck out there. What are ways you may be able to make it look a bit less stuck out in an armor. Scale the chest up with space to equal abs piece to look flat?
Hi, do you think you can send me the program through a link? If you want I can design a 3D model for you.
Haven't gotten there yet but what file did you use for the M85?
Hey , listen I'm a big fan of your videos and content 😎🔥💥.
_can you tell me when we'll you make a full Arkham Knight (Jason tade) cosplay/costume.please
Meshmixer does not currently install on Windows 11 😞
after i seperate shells in meshmixer after using armorsmith, it makes the helmet one shell and a 149 empty shells how do i make it seperate into it's original shells?
I don't know why but I don't have the ability to drag my avatar measurements by using a mouse, I just have to click on the part then type in the length, which isn't as much desirable, do you have an answer by chance?
If my helmet needs to be 108 and my body is 104. Should I scale my armor up to something like 106 to minimize bobble head ?
I've been trying this but my models don't turn out right when I load the measurements into armorsmith
Wish they’d make it for Mac or else I gotta use my dads computer for armorsmith and then move the files back over to my Mac.
@franklybuilt do you use armorsmith to scale your helmets or do you use your 3d scanned head from your other scaling video?
I use the scan of my head
Thank you! Your videos are really helping me!
I love trying to get buff 10 days a week lol😂
Do you still recommend this software? It appears there hasn't been any updates in years?
Fortunately, Kyle Hill already escaped from the void.
Oh yeah
Would I be able to buy a costume ?
Does anyone if there's a program similar to Armorsmith that works on mac devices?
