I finished assembling it. This is what it looks like. I really like the finished product.

The visor looks thin, and it is, however, it is plenty wide enough to be able to see through. It gives a similar view to the one in the game.
 
wow man thank's, i was looking for this pep for more than a week,

here in colombia there's not too many people dedicated to this art

and for me the rc files are not an option because the dif between

the dollar and the local currency is the double :(



once again thank's :D



pd: sorry for my rusty english

I'd highly recommend Skip's files. They may cost a few bucks, but in the end it will save you twice as much in bondo.

Well I do not have a few bucks to spend over the internet. If I have to modify MJOLNIR and standard clone armor then so be it!

I bought the skip files and assembled the entire thing and id have to say that its good but the helmet has a few problems with it, its a good build but the visor is a little messed up and the chin is way to far out, Not trying to step on any toes or anything. I can see that he was just following the blueprints he was working off and even when i was assembling it i was happy with it but once i was finished it just didn't look right.





Edit: with your permission id like to give a go with your file and tweak it a bit to get it a little more accurate.

I can vouch for the good visibility of the visor, I have a "Boss" RC bucket (as seen in my avatar) and Its got brilliant visibility. Hope to see some more pics of this build! :)

Looks nice, but I think you might want to smooth it out for those who are pepakura-impared (I would do it, but I don't have a key)

alrighty, guess I didn't mess it up too bad :D , so if you want it you can snag it from here rcbucket redo.pdo



Edit: not quite sure what you mean there Volgon about smoothing it, like making it higher detail?

Go to Settings> Other Settings and check Hide Fold Lines Almost Flat. I usually set the angle to about 160. It eliminates a lot of the unnecessary folds and makes everything smoother once assmebled. Anyone can do this before they print it, though.

Not everyone has designer (even the trial) and a lot of people, even if they DO have designer, don't know about it or how to do it (as was just made obvious). It would just make things simpler if the download was smooth.

Thank you Remraf, that is a very good tip for a noob like me. Made the build a lot easier to.

No problem. It's something I wish I would have known during my early builds and would have saved me a lot of frustration.
