[@UncleJessy]

Should I paint it or leave it as a raw print?

[@LuckyPrintClub]

100% paint

[@jackcanon2139]

First to comment on this comment 2:57

[@jackcanon2139]

Jessy are you there ??

[@FinWeirdoh]

+1 vote for painted

[@nestormenendez5295]

Paint it! :D

[@gingerdog8203]

FINALLY! Fabric cape and paint (hopefully a smaller wait time lol)

[@UncleJessy]

😂 doubtful

[@cidrain]

For the cape: try making a form with chicken wire, then draping fabric over it. Spray the fabric with some sort of hardener (pva glue?) and when it dries it should theoretically be a lightweight piece of material shaped how you need.

[@UncleJessy]

Oh man! Loving that idea thanks!!

[@bryantgutierrez9191]

That sounds wonderful! Makes you wonder tho if you should just use a light wiremesh painted close to cape color and just have it under cape and just shaped to desire?

[@ClayMann]

I do love the idea of solving a problem more easily and it gives you actual fabric that has its own realistic look. But when even the base has its own 3D printed part to cover that stand. I think it would be a shame not to go 3D print for the whole thing including the cape. I have a Loki model I printed with a massive cape and how they solved the print being too thin was to just taper the edges so from a casual view it looks thin but its actually quite thick over most of the cape making it very strong. A whole other thing asking if that remains true at life size. I'm not smart enough with zero experience printing that large to say.

[@nightninja90]

@@UncleJessy they have something like fabric starch should be able to help too

[@Drtydawg300]

Definitely paint. Wire armature for dynamic cape movement. Maybe some purple n pink LED backlighting behind statue. LOVE IT!

[@wickedart8574]

Madness! Jesus, that statue doesn't even fit in my house! Its glorious to see the model that big, man! You can see every little detail

[@dekopuma]

This project is ridiculous and I love you for it. Also, I appreciate your choice in having the support pole go into his torso as opposed to...other places.

[@UncleJessy]

🤣😂 I should have considered it from the get go but knowing me I would have scaled the hole wrong like I did 2 times on the upper torso before I got it right 😂🤦‍♂️

[@PeteLabrozzi]

Oh man, I've been dying for the past year to see how this ended up and the wait was absolutely worth it!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

LOVE the progress! Cannot wait to see this in person someday!

[@UncleJessy]

Heck yeah brother!

[@zCreepingDeathz]

Must be painted.

[@oldplankme]

Painting it is an absolute must!

[@jimmonkey3555]

Fabric cape and a hidden fan at the base!!! Yaaaahh!!!

[@user-vi2pb1tp8c]

Amazing job!!! My amateur suggestion is to finish it and when designing cape, try to balance its weight’s center of gravity so that you don’t have to modify this beautiful stand. Maybe when printing large statues, it should help, if you print lower parts with full infill to make them heavier. Does that make any sense?

[@UncleJessy]

Thanks! Yeah in hindsight I would have planned this out better 😂

[@Googaliemoogalie]

Paint for sure. Grab some metal meshing from home Depot, the type that is used for chicken pens or thinner for cement pours. Bend it the way the cape would look then sew material (or glue) over the wire mesh. Also, maybe some mortise and tenons joins with a wedge would be very strong and easy to remove. (Hide the wedge behind and conceal it)

[@jra]

Awesome!!! Finish it please, and for the cape use fabric with metal wires to give a desired shape.

[@getbent57]

That turned out awesome.

[@UncleJessy]

Thanksn

[@tbrew1]

It came out great!

[@johnrazvaliaeff]

I think you should reprint some of the parts that have lots of pieces to save yourself time on filling in all those gaps and sanding now that you have that large printer. Definitely paint it. Cant wait to see this thing finished. Whos next?

[@UncleJessy]

Yeah I’m going to print some shims to jam into some spots 😂

[@jeramy77m]

Paint it, Paint it!

[@haz927]

You should print magneto being chained up on the X from the cartoon😂

[@UncleJessy]

🤣😂 that’s for the private room in the studio 🤣

[@SamDunham]

Cyberfrog. Nice. :)

[@patrickfurtado4261]

I noticed it to🐸

[@williamowens5144]

Definitely paint it! All the work to get this thing together, seems almost a crime to leave it bare.

[@user-hv9lm5tm3b]

I think you should get some fabric then glue some wire in a flowing position then cover it in resin then paint it.

[@jessiewittmayer8768]

Reprint just the leg and base. Magneto Christmas Story Leg Lamp!!! 😂 But please do a wired fabric cape and paint it! So awesome !!!

[@UncleJessy]

Magneto Leg Lamp sounds too good

[@Fustercluck06]

That is amazing!! And you gotta paint that bad boy!

[@Ryoku1]

For the sign, mount it on the wall behind his left shoulder with some beams pm the back to give the illusion that Magneto is ripping it off the wall. Also definitely paint it.

[@UncleJessy]

Oh damn. That’s a cool idea!

[@hyosworld109]

Holy moly that's epic! I vote to paint it; and cloth would probably be most practical for the cape

[@snowwolvesproductions]

Def finish it! It will look fantastic!

[@figuresix]

Amazing job Jessy. You should finish it. Would be more amazing.

[@CharlieBasta]

This is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Just WOW!

[@CharlieBasta]

What do you do with all the failed prints when they're that large. Can you break it down and re-use it?

[@speedy3d524]

It looks awesome

[@ThePapaVader]

Finish it, a project that big warrants it.

[@speedy3d524]

Definitely paint and sand it up

[@MythicalBuilds]

I've been waiting FOREVER for this!! i love it!! i would DEFINITELY finish it

[@marc6340]

That umbrella stand was a stroke of genius!

[@suelenbraga2006]

Definitely paint it. Pls!

[@SkateSoup]

So awesome to see the pieces come together, its looking fantastic.

[@skiphenry9274]

Prep and paint. Looks epic.

[@rustyv6274]

That’s amazing. You should make a vid on how you used the different slicers to do all those features

[@JustLocal]

Paint it, even better for the environment!

[@mountpeek7490]

I think paint and armature wire would make it look even more badass than it already is

[@saywhatnyc]

Finish it! you came all this way Jesse... Might as well get er done!

[@DonsArtnGames]

For the cape, get a hold of what's called "horsehair" Its a fabric sculpting material that is used to shape fabric. Some examples of use are those geometric shapes you see in medieval collars and shaped skirt hems. Holds really well and is VERY light

[@jmaxx6894]

Finish it!! Looks awesome!!

[@radovanbucko4973]

yeaaah finish it pain it cape it will be epic

[@AirmanCS]

I think this is something incredibly amazing!, dude use the 12:06 mark as a thumbnail or something along! I thought from the thumb this was table size :O

[@UncleJessy]

Thanks! Yeah I might switch it up

[@4DPrinting]

Oh man, I have been waiting for this video. I almost lost hope that magneto was abandon. Glad you worked it out. 🎉

[@greyshadedminis]

Absolutely wicked definitely needs painting it's going to look epic

[@Coffee_And_Creatures]

Thats SO cool! I'd love to paint that!!

[@charlesdefibaugh5009]

Definitely needs to be properly finished and painted.

[@wongy81]

Well done uncle Jessy , leave as is its a testament to your commitment to art of 3d printing !!

[@sliverbaer]

Wow, this is EPIC. I'm glad you figured it all out. It looks really good with all the different colors, but I think eventually you do need to paint it.

[@UncleJessy]

Agreed. Leaning towards painting

[@chrishechtl8330]

That is insane! I would recommend wrapping the pole in cotton, maybe with bits of silver in a spiral around it and around him like he's got metal bits to use as ammo and as a shield. If you added LEDS to it it would look cool too. (though it might look like a big fart lol) He could have bits of metal shooting off along the extended hand too! The cotton could cover some of the jenky bits on the base that you aren't happy with. You could add LEDS under his boots to give him a glow effect there as well. I'd definitely finish it. And the chicken wire cape sounds good. Be careful with the magnets, you would do well to either embed them into the parts as you print them or use a lot of epoxy and supports around them. (they can deform the plastic) I can't wait to see the next step!

[@masonl87]

Clay this is the craziest thing I've seen in a long time. KEEP GOING! And definitely print it!

[@Squatle]

*Deep Mortal Kombat voice* "FINISH HER"

[@3DPrintedProps]

Awesome Man! Print some smaller rocks to put in front of the sign to help tie it into the backdrop.

[@KyleofAsgard]

What a monster of a print!! Nice work dude, If you are going to paint it (even just grey) I strongly suggest you have a play with "duratec grey surface primer", It can be brushed on, rolled on, or sprayed if its thinned down, BUT, the main reason I suggest you use it is because it is AMAZING for sanding, super consistent, easy to sand, and can even be pollished once you have finished sanding. I use it for boats, car parts, props, armor, even weapon masters. Lastly you can add filling powder to it, you could probably use baby powder, but typically you would buy "Q-cell" or and sanding/fairing filler powder. This would allow you to do some really nice thick coats in areas like joins, cracks, or even just really nasty print layers. The stuff smells pretty strongly of fibreglass, this is its only draw back, but once its cured I promise you, you wont want to use anything else ;)

[@UncleJessy]

Heck yeah will look into that thanks man!

[@dkev0]

Ya, you gotta paint it. Your a mad man by the way. That's amazing.

[@ChilledTheMage]

You should add a Bluetooth speaker and some sort of distance sensor to detect when people go by and play a quote like "I am the master of magnetism!".

[@UncleJessy]

Oh damn! Now that’s an awesome idea!

[@airelmo]

Amazing work. Alot of hours for sure. You started it and now you have to finish it. You have to paint it.

[@israelrobles681]

Just in time for X-men 97 final. Awesome work buddy!

[@UncleJessy]

Debating on adding a quick mod based on this past episode

[@fesko76]

Amazing work! It looks great with all the different colors, but it would be dope to have a huge detail painted Magneto. With a real cape?

[@MaheerKibria]

Strong magnets are kind of hard to work with. So I would probably go with ball or spring plungers with friction providing most of the staying force.

[@ahmadhajmoussa7988]

Awesome In the future try to paint everything before starting assembly. Great video again

[@xXPhanillaXx]

Most definitely a fabric cape with some sort of wire support and definitely paint it! Also the Xavier sign that shifted, you should just cut the shifted part off. Because it's supposed to appear damaged anyways right.

[@CorneliuTicu]

This could be a very cool business branch. Painting it and send it and other of your beautiful prints to advertising acencies. Malls, Cinemas, big stores... sky is the limit.

[@justinmoss1163]

Finish it, you've come this far. cape would be fairly easy with thin gauge hex chicken wire from tractor supply, sandwhich it between two sheets of thick fabric, either super77 the edges or actually sew it. bend to a dynamic shape. My printer is way to small to even attempt a project of this size, id have to chunk mine like x5 smaller and that sounds like a nightmare.

[@rafaelsalazar1767]

A Simple metallic paint job would be great, and a Fabric cape, using wood glue or some sort of PVA to make it keep that fluid motion would look great.

[@alvaro2305]

I really want to see this printed. I Know is going to be huge hustle but is going to look awesome

[@cyclingman1584]

Definitely paint it, something like that has to look like it belongs in a museum.

[@romeo1410]

Paint, use auto body filler for your gaps, glazing and spot putty is easily sandable. i do auto paint as a hobby, and applied techniques to 3d prints and quality comes out amazing.

[@AAEardley]

I'd definitely paint it - ta amazing

[@richardknecht492]

Love the Ted Lasso ref.😂

[@wsseibert]

Looking great!

[@robindavid2989]

CRAZY CRAZY COOL !!!!

[@nestormenendez5295]

I've been waiting for this video since the beginning of the project! Thank you!!!

[@Pjiggy]

DEFINITELY finish this

[@SargesCustoms]

The Magneto Returns! This is awesome and has been a great project to follow over the year or so. That just screams Uncle Jessy's Workshop in the entrance way. Looking forward to the continuation as it takes shape.

[@oren907]

Definitely finish it and paint it

[@radicalreel]

Wow huge! Amazing work. Unfortunately it doesn't really look floating. Wouldn't it be possible to hang it from the ceiling? Maybe the fixture could be hidden using the cape?

[@scottdecleene6071]

You need to paint it. It would look amazing!

[@fuzzydragoncosplay955]

it looks awesome, I wonder if you put some emery cloth into the connections it would let you do friction fits.

[@thebristlyboss]

Angry Ben franklin? Angry Magneto? Looks more like Vigo the Carpathian! :D

[@MakerBees333]

7’5” of awesomeness ❤️! Well done

[@stu3379]

The way it is now completely highlights the immense amount of work that you put into this. mount a few photos of contstruction next to the fully painted, and potentially....lit up version of Magneto? Well, that would just break KZbin with the views. Great work.

[@JohnHavord]

You have to finish and paint. Would be criminal not too!

[@Andy81m]

Of course painted. Magneto is not a clown

[@SevenProductionsCSS]

1:34 I tought little uncle jessy was gonna say: "using this 6ft long metal pole, that we're gonna shove through Magneto's ASS" 😂

[@UncleJessy]

Pole for magnetos hole but reshot it because “KZbin” 😂

[@ClayMann]

I do think it would be a crime if you didn't paint it. Not a color accurate paint job because I think at this scale it would bad unless you were doing high end air brushing. But a basic primer that'll smooth it all out nicely and then a single color paint job. You wouldn't even need to do a dark wash to make the details pop as remember the wash is recreating shadows that would appear at 1:1 scale. And as this is 1:1 scale it creates its own real physically accurate shadows. So you just need to do the basic one color stone grey and boom, that's a finished stone looking statue that would wow anyone. I have to say that's an amazing achievement. Its a bit of a wake up call to us all dreaming of larger prints just how difficult it is once you start getting beyond 1/6th scale which is so nice and easy to do on any machine. Quarter scale I think is really hard and expensive. So half or crazy, 1:1! that's just madness and I tip my hat to anyone that takes that on.

[@jonrrobinson]

Another great video - thank for sharing. I haven’t printed in while but seen many are using Orca slicer - what have a missed with the move to this slicer? Any tips?

[@J.KINGTOONZ]

Looks so cool, great job! I wish I had a 3D printer XD.

[@Queue22]

if you like magneto, you would love xmen 97. idk if you have been watching or not but they are doing him justice

[@UncleJessy]

Can’t wait for next week! Bring on Onslaught!

[@JarJarThinks]

I’m printing a helmet right now but I’m not sure if I need supports or not for the dome. What do you recommend? I sliced the dome into quarters by the way.

[@UncleJessy]

Typically I don’t put supports on the inside dome. It will usually buildup on itself. Might look a little messy inside but the outside is clesn

[@lowan7073]

I would like to see it finished. Looks so f cool.

[@emilkhaziev1864]

How many kilos is the final weight?

[@ath_greek]

you can use pvc tube for support the statue. you even can heat it

[@SamDunham]

Definitely finish this. Paint, weathering, the whole shebang. Maybe even get more ambitious and add some RGB lighting.

[@anthonylong5870]

Oh Lord PLEASE paint that thing!!! It deserves a nice paint job. in METALLICS!!

[@unB10]

I was just thinking about this earlier this week because I wanted to see how it turned out. Been wanting to make a life sized dwarf fighter for my studio.

[@thegps7197]

Could look really nice to leave it just primed. Almost like a clay sculpture

[@magomat6756]

Painting but now it's also cool
