Re: Duke's Custom Reach Suit with Bruteshot (with Step by Step) +photos!!
Chernobyl making a strong play for MVP up in here haha!
That bicep looks great, Duke. Was that the first pep or did you do a couple size testers?
Haha! I know, right! So helpful! If by in here you mean everywhere on the 405th. Girl has superpowers or something. :ninja
Oh and thanks, yeah first pep.
I poke around a lot with the "measure distance tool" before I print.
Update:
Woo! A pair of muscly biceps.
Thanks to
ForgedReclaimer for the unfold!
For the record I did not change the scale. I kept them at their original 215mm Height.
One note on pepping these biceps. You
will need to mirror/invert them. The right and left may look the same, but they are not. There is a squarish side that should be pointing forward. I know, currently there is a Left and a Right file in the archive, but be warned they are the same
exact file and you
will need to mirror/invert one of them to be able to make both the left and the right. Maybe
Chernobyl will be able to invert one and re-upload it or just delete one to avoid the confusion. I have seen people's builds on here who have one good bicep and one backwards one. To avoid that.. the process is simple.
How to Invert (or Mirror) a pep model:
1. Sometimes there is only one pep unfold for a part that needs a left and a right. Some of these parts, are exactly the same and don't need to be mirrored, but others do. The easiest way to tell if it needs to be mirrored is if the front looks different than the back.
2. Once you know you need to print a mirrored piece simply go into the "Other" menu tab and select "Mirror Invertion (both 2d and 3d)"
3. You'll notice that the model has changed, but be aware that the unfolded pieces also moved. Make sure that they are all going to print properly and you're done.
