Iron Man Mark 42 Helmet made out of cardboard (and some stuff) - tutorial

[@RonaldFinger]

I'm pretty sure I made that 3D model that's used in the Pepakura file! Glad to see it's getting some good use :)

[@craftdistry]

Wow, it seems like it, based on your mark 42 video. I found the model online and modified some parts of it, so that I can transfer it into paper, nevertheless thanks for making the model and yours, I think is by far the most accurate model on the internet.

[@aj_art8058]

I've printed 2 mark 42 helmets, and this literally looks 3d printed. You are very talented.

[@craftdistry]

Thanks!

[@tomasik4487]

Bro... I am making cardboard things, but i've never seen this low budget channel (with love❤) and the quality of your props are awesome. Keep doing ur hobby 🎉

This is one of the best versions of iron mans helmet i have ever seen, I'm gonna try adding servos to make it open but thanks so much for the template and tutorial

[@gandaputra9969]

Best cardboard ironman helmet.. Please make another ironman helmt. 👍👍👍👍🤝

[@Toaster-m4f]

Nice

[@neogenwr4149]

Tip: You can use wood filler to make the cardboard hard, then sand it when it gets hard , sand it until you get a smooth texture and after that spray it with primer and it depends on you oh how many coats you will do.After spraying some primer paint the helmet red and gold and don't forget to cover the parts with masking tape or any tapes when spraying it with paints

Is there an alternative way to do this without wood filler and gray spray paint?

[@craftdistry]

Yes, you could use the paper mache technique but it won't give you a super smooth finish unlike wood filler

[@callmeryan5734]

Thanks for replying and keep up the good work!

[@C_E_O721]

Brother, can I use the wood filler without the coating of resin on the helmet? And then sand and paint it?

[@craftdistry]

@@C_E_O721 you can but you should find a way to make the helmet sturdy, otherwise, one small bend or wobble from the helmet would cause the wood filler to crack on the surface

[@C_E_O721]

Hello bro for the resin we hv to mix with water ryt also for how much time should we leave it to dry

[@craftdistry]

Nope, you should not mix it with water, you should check the type of resin you are using before mixing it together and also its drying process depends on how much hardener you put in your resin Watch some tutorials here on KZbin about mixing resin so you can avoid some mistakes :)

[@ashwinsreejith5860]

Hello, I have a question. Does the helmet fit you without taking the lower removable portion on the back of the helmet?

[@craftdistry]

Even if I take out the lower portion, it still doesn't fit my head cause I scaled the helmet incorrectly and should have make it bigger 😅

[@ashwinsreejith5860]

Ok so how should I scale it?

[@captainjt3048]

it fits to your head?

[@craftdistry]

Well apparently not, it's because I resize it almost exactly to my head and I should have made it bigger

[@captainjt3048]

Do you have the bigger template?

[@craftdistry]

I'm sorry I don't have but you could make the template bigger using pepakura

[@ratrapeejirachotjirat371]

What is the type of resin that you use?

[@craftdistry]

I used polyester resin

[@arnavawesomeplayz5956]

Hi, what are the paints you are using?

[@craftdistry]

I used a grey primer spray paint for the base coat then I sprayed the helmet with silver spray paint before spraying it with gold spray paint for the faceplate and red toner spray paint for the helmet to give it a metallic look :)

[@arnavawesomeplayz5956]

Ok 👍🏽 Amazing MK42 helmet, it looks just like the real movie helmet.Looks like you just need to motorise it and it will open and close the face plate. Keep up your good work... 😁👏🏽

[@arnavawesomeplayz5956]

Just to inform you that I also do similar things as you like making a full iron man suit out of cardboard then hardening then filling and painting.

[@IWETROBOTICS]

Does it fit you head correctly? If yes can you wear it to show us

[@craftdistry]

Tbh, I can't wear it because I resize the helmet to my exact head shape and I didn't add some allowance so lesson learned is that you should make it a little bigger for your head in order for you to wear it 😅

[@21konvict]

I actually find this really impressive on how you made this stuff. Instead of using a 3d printer, you're using your hands! Youve got some great talent there😂!!!
