Halo Reach Emile Cosplay Project

[belfahst]

Hello I am committed to make an Emile cosplay but here is my main issue. Im completely new to 3d printing but ive been binge watching 3d printing back to back but im stuck on what printer to get. I keep seeing creality k1 max but if i get that 3d printer how much of slicing am i doing just for each piece to completely fit me (I have armorsmith) Also pray for me about doing Emiles visor cuz god christ all mighty im gonna hate myselft doing it any suggestions would be great

Welcome! We’re very excited to see how your build comes along! We do have a thread that explains what printers our members chose and why, linked here What's Your Printer?

I use an Elegoo Neptune 4 Plus myself, it’s a good size printer and their customer service will usually replace any parts that break for free.

Hope this helps!

its just the visor im worried about

Visor is the toughest part for sure. if you dont have a vacufoming set up, it might be best to buy a visor from somewhere. I know branfuhrstudios.com or galacticarmory.net sell very nice visors.

i can buy a vacuforming setup i keep seeing videos on how to do them its just needs to be perfect or its juts scraped

There is definitely a bit of a learning curve to vacuforming. I made mine for pretty cheap, and it works well, but learning to get a good pull can be frustrating. I am definitely all for building the arsenal of cool tools and gadgets though. I wish you luck with it, and I'll keep a watch on your progress.
