Please Note That This Is A Copy OF A Post I Made To The Facebook Page, It was Only In Hindsight That I Posted It Here To Increase Chances Of It Being Seen.
So quick question, does it count if I create a cosplay suit for a PC case? LOL ok let me clarify. With Halo Infinite coming to PC next year I decided to be ambitious and for my second build create a custom PC case. (the good ones are $100 plus so might as well make it worth my while right) I decided to create a case that looks like the Falcon from Halo Reach. The only problem is I have no experience with 3d design whatsoever.
Luckily Im a custodian at a university with an engineering department, an engineering department with a student who is also into Halo, knows 3d design, and has access to a 3d printer. After some talk we agreed that it would be best to find an existing file that is editable so that parts can be filled and hollowed out as needed to fit the components. Only problem is that I CANT FIND ANY!!!!!! (insert sound of me banging me head into my desk repeatedly here)
Then, after a slight concussion, an idea! Now tbh I have never tried Pepakura before and have just admired all of yalls cool designs as a fan. That said, my base understanding is that Pep files are created so that the parts can be edited hollow within certain software, (which is how yall make the awesome suits). So by chance would anyone have a Pep file (or better yet the 3D design files) of the Falcon that they would be willing to share and then me and my friend can try and use it to 3d print the parts needed for the case?
ps. sorry for the long winded dialogue, had a long day at work and when Im this tired I tend to somewhat babble LOL.
Thanks in advance!
