[@that_weird_kid00]

I can’t believe how interactive you are with commenters! And how good you are at printing😄

[@FranklyBuilt]

Oh well thank you!

[@UncleJessy]

Heck yeah man! Been wanting to redo one of these for a while now. Turned out amazing

[@TSOCrypto]

Can't wait to see a version of the helmet from you Uncle Jessy. Been watching your videos as I'm trying to determine what resin printer to get.

[@topher7379]

sir you're amazing, single handedly got me into larger scale printing and cosplay, I got the Sidewinder X-2, and Genius, and have made an iron man helmet, and working on redhood, I really appreciate the help

[@TommFoolery]

YEEESSSSS! I've been waiting for a high quality Daredevil Cosplay video for YEARS

[@Do3D]

This video was epic! Thank you so much for making this one. Amazing job as always! 👏👏👏

[@voidedsky0]

Frank I just wanna let you know how Inspiring you are. Four months ago I had zero printers and no dreams about it, and now it’s my favorite hobby and I just bought an Ender 5 plus as my second printer

[@weirdestweirdo9965]

Dude that’s really sick you know wolverine’s helmet is always ready to be next

[@sawyerg9935]

Yes!!!!

[@zallibik9931]

The amount of information you provide in all of your videos, testing of various methods and products is ridiculus, thank you so much for sharing, you legit save people money!

[@Jakedasnake0426]

He’s a really good Lawyer

[@alex_gavel]

I've seen so many people try to make a decent daredevil mask. and this is the best

[@SandF3DPrinting]

Pretty much everything I know about 3d printing came from you and your channel and TikTok Frank. I can't possibly thank you enough for getting me into this amazing hobby. You have an absolute lifetime supporter in me.

[@docmorrell]

I'm just getting into 3d printing and cosplay. Your videos have been so helpful!

This video was amazing!😂 “Not risk this little point failing and falling over” man I wish I knew that before it failed like 5 times on me

[@twotoasty0638]

That’s sick man, turned out better than I expected. Thank you so much for taking in my suggestion on making this prop!!!🔥🔥

[@TSOCrypto]

I'm actually printing a daredevil helmet and I also had the plan to fit it with the red led eyes. Looks really nice.

[@diegochacon9872]

Frankly thank you so much for these videos, you were the one that introduced me to 3d printing and this was very epic!

[@samuelm.7797]

Same here

[@VVilliampagan2010]

the leds make the mask look so good

[@Noah_Bisch]

So awesome! Great info and great paint on the helmet! I love your opening screens and the sponsorship segment was amazin! The time joke was funny also! 🤣 They are so good! It makes me want to watch daredevil

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

daredevil was trash. watchmen was far better and won a record 11 Emmys.

[@IsaacThePanduh]

Great video and congrats on the ad spot!!

[@NerdvanaCustomCreations]

Love this build, working mine now! Wasn’t going to add LEDs but now I think I am, thanks FB! Great video and tips!

[@greyyguy]

Great video! For the textured fabric, a lot of it is a painted on texture. You could do the same thing making a pattern in a cricut (or probably on a 3D printer, or on a regular printer and being very careful with an exacto blade) and then airbrushing the pattern onto the fabric.

[@generalkenobi7657]

I love how you had the same idea I did I wanted to get a pair of cosplay led eyes for mine

[@TJ10033]

Great video Frank 👍 I'm looking forward to printing this one 👍

[@chriseastty2874]

Spooky, I've just started watching the series and this pops up, great build

[@SaturdayMorningProps]

You're the best man, my buddy was so hyped for your message man!

[@jonathan__g]

Great build. Looks great.

[@schodown4036]

Very nice build. Love the intro and the ad skit. Lol

[@BuzzBallsHiding]

this really helped hell skull helmet

[@haz927]

ngl, the nano leafs making up your logo is perfection

[@dafelixjnr371]

Looks so good!

[@AlexHaitch]

"You must have so much thyme on your hands" was an amazing joke, thank you for that!

[@ryannault647]

OMG ITS THE REALLY GOOD LAWYER

[@hansencustomcreations5355]

Grate video agin my man. I like how you did the weathering technique pretty creative. 👍👍🇨🇦

[@darkpanda0220]

The reveal beh got me laughing.

[@marcom1600]

amazing video as usual bro. your step by step make it so easy to follow. still waiting for the HALO sword tutorial lol

[@mertz7305]

Great job dude!

[@obsessedgamer3348]

Keep up the great content man!

[@Ginger_666]

1:32 this guy is a genius

[@HAZEM_ADEL]

thanks for this effort 👏❤️

[@ohhellothere9366]

This is Awesome!!!

[@82LaPlume]

Had to give it a like just for the intro. Lol

[@Thatbrownguy454]

The eyes look cool man.

[@vincediesil]

That turned out great. My other favorite parts of the video was the scene with the Iron Idiots, and the return of the blooper outro :)

[@eprohoda]

dude!wow-incredible !take care! 😉

[@MCM1738]

Let’s goooo now I can catch bricks that fly through windows!!!!

[@Alex-vb6wn]

I love this helmet

[@pathetictoaesthetic4518]

For the back of the cowl, you should put the tightening mechanism for a bike helmet, that way you won’t have to reattach it every single time

[@juliendoes2044]

No print timelapse? That’s the coolest part

[@thenexttube4280]

That's amazing👍👍 Please also built for Spiderman ❤

[@danielpineda4824]

Can you make a video of how you make figurines like the ones you have in your background? Love your videos!

[@joeytpants2506]

That's not a bad idea

[@BrightNightTech]

This looks amazing! Do you think it would survive printing it right side up and blocking out the inside supports?

[@spideyboy6612]

I'm 13 and I have an ender 3 pro and I want to be daredevil for Halloween and for comic con in September. I think it will take some money and patience but I'll try. It will be so cool.

[@RetardedGoat16]

Could you do a tutorial for the LED eyes?

[@steveklepacki7111]

Do you have a video on how you got your head printed and scanned, that’s a very useful tool when making helmets.

[@kn9075]

very cool

[@OBAMA3325]

Firstly, Go USAF! I did 6 years active at Scott AFB. Thanks for your service. Secondly, I’ve been doing my own 3D printing and I run into the paint peeling often. I do try to stick to the same family of paints but it does still happen. Any advise or recommendations on what you’ve had the most success with; in terms of paint.

[@kari2231]

3:45 i almost spit out my drink, i am not lying sadly

[@liran8799]

Can you do a tutorial for making his homemade S1 costume

[@johnsantos507]

Daredevil is my mom's favorite character.

[@rezixt7165]

Make a video on how to light up the arc reactor or hand for suit and where to add straps

[@zachmhuber]

Hey Frank, I have a quick question. I constantly switch my 3D printed projects and can’t seem to land on a specific one. What motivates you to complete a project? I asked Emily the Engineer and she said that custom painting one helps, but I also wanted to see your opinion as you haven’t created any custom painted suits. Thanks!

[@Sage-0708]

What if I don’t have windows? What could I use instead of cura or mesh mixer. Also amazing job!

[@spooderman24YT]

You should try and make a full daredevil suit from the Netflix show.

[@flynna]

Found you on instagram today, great content, newly subbed :)

[@kellys6456]

What's the software or phone app you used to scan your head to a 3d model?

[@garvin0313]

Amazing. Can you make some some spider man related things, goblin mask or bomb, web shooter or doc ock arms.

[@daremo50na76]

Cool!

[@BombAstro]

I absolutely love this, sad how we do not get the cosplay led eyes here in India :(

[@Bobba_fett]

I need a tutorial on generating supports and playing with the hotleys and shortcuts you are using.

[@maxwelljenkins1695]

dang, he must be a really good lawyer

[@zethbooterbaugh]

What is a cosplay prop you would recommend for someone who is starting 3d printing?

[@juliosoares8]

The LED mustache

[@JackStannard93]

Frank can you teach me how to print a loving family??

[@btbbelgudei3320]

He looks like Benjamin pointdexter from daredevil s3

[@sirhappybeariii1488]

what did you use to get a 3D scan of your head? I'd love to get do one of mine, it seems super handy!

[@XKnightRiderX]

It’s called a head sock Usually worn when wearing things like power ranger helmets

[@bigtimespidey38]

2:44 Arnold Murdock

[@primus1873]

Frankie l used the driver from those cheap remote led candles to to have remote controlled eyes. The flicker move even makes the eyes kinda pulse!

[@primus1873]

Mode not move!,

[@yagoquintana5424]

What are the LED's you're using for the eyes? I want to make a cyclops visor using those. Great job the the DD helmet!

[@bub6121]

Awesome! Can you do the Batman helmet?

[@LegitOreo64]

"Hello Karen, it's nice to see you again."

[@michaelalanstlouis]

Hey Frank. I discovered your channel a few weeks ago and have learned a lot. Excellent work sir. A few questions: 1. Where did you get the light up lens? I may have missed it in your links. I have a Batman mask I’d like to use it for. 2. How did you make the 3D scan of your head? Maybe there’s a video I missed. Thanks man. And thank you for your service. Best regards.

[@FranklyBuilt]

Ali express and I used the Revipoint POP scanner

[@NHPaintballer]

Great video man! Curious how you are holding your strapping on the inside of the helmet?

[@FranklyBuilt]

Cyanoacrylate glue

[@Screamfancast]

Is there a particular filament that is preferred for these cosplay items? I assume you want durability and flex. Thanks

[@IcanCwhatUsay]

Just found your channel and have been binging a number of your videos. You do a great job with explaining and keeping things concise which makes watching you videos very easy. This particular video sparked some questions and I'm hoping you have a video that can help. The first is how did you get your head scanned? Did you DIY or did you go somewhere for that? The second is I recently switched over to a 0.6 nozzle and have been having some difficulty getting it to print well as opposed to my 0.4 nozzle that I could print anything with. Do you have a tips/tricks/your settings that you use for the 0.6 nozzle?

[@FranklyBuilt]

Hey! So I actually have a whole video on scaling helmets that shows how to measure and scan your head :)

[@IcanCwhatUsay]

@@FranklyBuilt Ha! I actually just found that after posting my question. What about on the 0.6nozzle settings. Do you have one for that?

[@elnabawymohamed056]

"Not only print this off and scare my wife..." What a nice prank for an April fool!🤣🤣🤣 And that other one "It's on my head but it's not on my head." PAUSE!

[@Shane-RocketMan]

Is that regular chrome red window tint, or reflective is it a reflective type?

[@josepetrowski2974]

Hey Frank! I'm new to 3D printing and was wondering what you use to scan your head

[@weathermanstoys1506]

You should do a death stroke mask I know the Arkham knight one has only the left eye open but you could maybe figure something out idk but yeah love your vids man

[@levofspades]

You own a 3D printer is you own whole world 😅

[@Cufc08]

Frank, I need to pick your brains about slicing parts smaller then printing and sticking together. For instance the mk85 chest in 4 bits do you ever find the half’s are different sizes when printed by 3 or 4mm I’m puzzled. Lol.

[@BatmanOfRI]

Hey Frank, love the content! New subscriber! Can you do a tutorial on how to complete a 3D head sculpt?

[@FranklyBuilt]

Hey! Thank you! And I have haha in my helmet scaling video

[@XKnightRiderX]

420k subs! Great job! Hehe 420

[@bearvassar6690]

Could you make it where it expands over your head as you put it on using elastic material?.

[@TimDavey]

another great video frank! how come you dont use tree supports? do you not like them?

[@FranklyBuilt]

I use them just not in everything. They’ aren’t good for everything. Just like most settings. Change them per print

[@mattfokken1840]

What did you use to glue the window tint to the mask? great vid btw

[@kingaromasnow6514]

I like those Mask you have when I can buy them

[@TheBrute268]

Frank, my cura is taking forever to slice this helmet and sometimes crashes while slicing, ever experience this, and any tips? Thanks

[@thejyren3742]

What kind of filament did you use ?

[@colvinmatt1]

When you use a paint that doesn’t take clear coats well like golds do you use anything as an alternative to protect the paint or just put on more coats of paint?

[@FranklyBuilt]

Nope. There’s no real other options.
