Pepakura Programs

[wgerych]

Hey guys, my name is Billy and I have been turned on to this whole modeling stuff for sometime now and now i think i'm ready to try it out I've done quite a bit of research but kinda stuck at just where to begin. So i've looked at some other topics and stuff and decided i want to start off by making a helmet or just one piece of a suit to start off maybe. But when I go to pepakura's website I see there are multiple versions of the program, which one/ones should i download? Thanks for your help in advanced

Pepakura designer will allow you to print off, and scale your armor. That's the one almost everybody uses.





Cheers!

but you can't actually make models in pep.

you need to get a modeling program like metasequoia to do that.

(among many others)

thanks for the help, yeah. i definitely have no clue how to run 3d modeling software so im gonna be sticking with just printing out premade blueprints for now haha. Any suggestions or links for a blueprint of a good helmet to be my first?

scratch that, I just found a large page of some blueprints i can try out. I think i'm gonna start on a recon helmet next week when i get the time. I'll be posting soon
