I've used alclad aqua gloss over molotow chrome and montana gold chrome to great effect. If you give it 3 or so days to fully cure before clear coating and build it slow it works really nicely and keeps the mirror finish. Love the videos!
Theres many methods and it’s mostly what works best for whoever is building it For me Montana gold works best as I’m from the uk and don’t have room or money for an air compressor
I'm more of a fan of no gold tint on the eyes because of a preference for comic/film accuracy, BUT the gold tinted eyes still looks absolutely amazing. Good job on the build, love the work.
Can i suggest using a 2k automotive clear over the gold. I think maybe it would look more true to the gold you wanted. Also it’s going to be pretty hard just like a car paint job. and you can even polish and ceramic coat it
I've had this helmet printed for a year and have been waiting for someone to post something like this cause I couldn't find a solution for the gold that I liked this is so awesome
It took me a minute to watch this, but I like the helmet with the shades on because it's like you're not at full power, it's more like you just walked in the room.
Frank this was an awesome build i would also love if you built a hulk buster armor because the hulk buster armor has been my absolute favorite since I was a kid and I would love to see it come to life
The Helmet came out really nice. Use a calligraphy cap with the Montana can, you get a much better finish. Have you tried liquitex gloss varnish, through an airbrush. It doesn't harm the finish and you can rattle can clear on top of the Liquitex varnish.
10:59 I want to invest in a clean room, but I don't have the room for it! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! 15:58 Again with the window tint... And I thought I would have to step away from that idea. 16:57 I like it better with out the gold eyes.
Yes, you can add protection to it. You can apply a ceramic coating to it. I’m a professional detailer and we apply ceramic coatings on a lot a different surfaces. That will add a good protection to it. You will love it.
There 2k Clear coats that come in a rattle can. The downside is they use a catalyzer so once the can is activated you only have about 48 hrs to use the whole can. So it can get pricey for small props.
I absolutely love it show, and all the builds you make, have to done any of the Star wars helmets? Or Spawn's helmet? Would be awesome to see, keep up the amazing work!!!!
Hi, just saw this video, thanks alot, for I am thinking of doing a Doctor FAte cosplay. I was thinking of using gold leaf for it. What would be your thoughts on that. The gold you used does look very nice, but I think gold leaf would really take the gold look to an other level. thanks JS
Hey frank, I don’t know how often you take suggestions on prints but I just want to say I’m a huge fan and would love to see you try to make an Arkham knight helmet. It’s a cool helmet and I don’t think it would be hard to do. That’s all from me. Again I love you your content, have a wonderful day.

second this its what i use for mini painting
Theres many methods and it’s mostly what works best for whoever is building it
For me Montana gold works best as I’m from the uk and don’t have room or money for an air compressor
the gold eyes amazed me, I was so surprised when he turned the lights back on and it just dissapeared and then back off and it was just so reflective
I'm more of a fan of no gold tint on the eyes because of a preference for comic/film accuracy, BUT the gold tinted eyes still looks absolutely amazing. Good job on the build, love the work.
I think it would have looked better using black window tint
Another great build Frank! Dr Fate was the best part of Black Adam.
Gold eyes are legendary
So glad I was able to give you the gold idea! Turned out amazing as always
the gold tint on the eyes is such a nice touch to the helmet, my god.
I personly love the gold and I really love how when the eyes are on they are a bit reflective.
Those gold eyes are great, thanks for another great video.
That gold turned out incredible! Great job.
Love the gold eyes
Those gold eyes are RAD AS HELL!!!
That is a awesome helmet, Doctor fate is one my favorite characters, and that helmet is insanely accurate, I love this
I love this helmet so much and you did a fantastic job on it, keep at it 🎉
Ooh been waitin on this since the Instagram posts
Thank you for the knowledge on gold chrome.. i really need it
It’s my birthday today and I love all your videos. I’m really happy you posted on my birthday even if it was just by chance, Thank you so much!!😊
When you’re doing the gold it’s called building sheen with multiple coats. Some paints build sheen at higher thickness
Thank you! Didn’t know that
I have been waiting for this video forever, thank you
Can i suggest using a 2k automotive clear over the gold. I think maybe it would look more true to the gold you wanted. Also it’s going to be pretty hard just like a car paint job. and you can even polish and ceramic coat it
My man Frank being one of the most awesome 3D printer here sharing what he knows and love is at it again... Making another awesome video.
Damn...That is an awesome looking helmet..Those eyes finish it off💯💣💥
I've had this helmet printed for a year and have been waiting for someone to post something like this cause I couldn't find a solution for the gold that I liked this is so awesome
That helmet turned out sick!
I have been waiting ages for you to make a video on this helmet! I have seen it in the background and it looks great
Love this, the quality of your vids continues to skyrocket frank! Keep up the good work!
I've been waiting for this for soooooooo long! Thank you sooooo much so excited for this!!!
That helmet looks stunning
Have you tried pledge floor gloss? I know Barbatos Rex uses it over some chrome without issues. Or maybe Vallejo polyeurethane gloss varnish.
The helmet looks so great. I made my own Mando helmet and it looks so good.
Absolutely love the time lapse! Super clean! Love the videos! Your doing amazing!
Turned out amazing…. The gold tinted eyes are perfect 👍
Another BANGER of a video from good ole' Honestly Constructed!!
I love this style of video. Glad you decided to start making these!
with the gold eyes, btw
It took me a minute to watch this, but I like the helmet with the shades on because it's like you're not at full power, it's more like you just walked in the room.
With the gold yes tbh or any color like green would be cool too.
Thank you for this. Not sure if you saw my comment to your question on IG but this is really what I was looking for. Thank you Thank you!!!
One of the Best characters of DC
I love the gold eyes 🤩
Definitely golden eyes
Frank this was an awesome build i would also love if you built a hulk buster armor because the hulk buster armor has been my absolute favorite since I was a kid and I would love to see it come to life
one tip i remember hearing about 3d printing helmets is to print them upside down, that way it uses less filament on the supports
Not always true. Also makes post processing harder
That looks epic!
Damn I want the big helmet! Lol nice video man
The Helmet came out really nice. Use a calligraphy cap with the Montana can, you get a much better finish. Have you tried liquitex gloss varnish, through an airbrush. It doesn't harm the finish and you can rattle can clear on top of the Liquitex varnish.
Another great build 👏! I think the gold tint looks the best 👌 👍!
Love your content Frank! Thanks to your videos I've been able to start a cosplay business from my house using rattle can paint 😎
A good way to protect it without clearcoating it is ceramic spray wax
“It is difficult for a lord of order or chaos to maintain a presence on the physical plane.”
-Dr Fate/Nabu(aka bully, killjoy, and geezer)
now you have to make the gold eyes on Starboost😂
The gold eyes are awsome
How 11h ago?
Nice job Frank. Go for the 100% with the clear. I know you can do it! 🙂🏁👏
Day what feels like a 100,000000000 of asking Frankie Built to make doomguy's predator suit from Doom Eternal
Praetor suit not predator
Wow!!! Just amazing, man!!
Awesome job man looks great.
10:59 I want to invest in a clean room, but I don't have the room for it! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
15:58 Again with the window tint... And I thought I would have to step away from that idea.
16:57 I like it better with out the gold eyes.
Goes without saying but amazing work. Keep it up. Big fan
This looks so good!💪🏼🔥, honestly Frank well done!👏🏽👏🏽💯 ...now i want Dr.Fate costume 😂. Kudos!
Gold eyes!
Frank is a cool dude.
Love the eyes
LOVED this build. Thanks for sharing
I've been thinking to add goldleaf on some 3d prints, might look nice on dr fate.
You are really inspiring me to do the damn thing bro! This Is The SHIZZNET
This is sick
Hey Franky. Saw your Dr Fate TIKTOK and here I am.........a new subscriber.
Nice helmet! Try chrome window tint for the eyes I think it would look a bit better
Soo good love your vids mask looks real 😊
Frank,
Thank you for all of the awesome content. Your videos have helped me progress in prop making.
Could you share the link for the LED eyes?
A little foam padding will save the 105% fit I would think.
that is insane i Love it i wish i will be like you one day
You should try car rep 2k . Test it on Montana gold it’s spray can 2k it’s awesome
The gold iron man helmet that I show later in the video where the gold yellowed was 2k can actually. Didn’t work
Yes, you can add protection to it. You can apply a ceramic coating to it. I’m a professional detailer and we apply ceramic coatings on a lot a different surfaces. That will add a good protection to it. You will love it.
Fabulous build. Do you have the LED eyes link? Couldn't see it in the info. Thanks, pick up so many tips each time.
There 2k Clear coats that come in a rattle can. The downside is they use a catalyzer so once the can is activated you only have about 48 hrs to use the whole can. So it can get pricey for small props.
Am I the only one that watches the videos all the way through even though I know how to do everything to make the project 😅
This is completely awesome. If anything I really want a giant printer now. Will you link to the AliExpress eyes?
I absolutely love it show, and all the builds you make, have to done any of the Star wars helmets? Or Spawn's helmet? Would be awesome to see, keep up the amazing work!!!!
Awesome
Hey frankly I’m having trouble with my ender 3 pros fans they aren’t running and I just replaced the thermistor so I think it’s the wiring
Fantastic look on this...the reflections you're getting off of it are stunning...think you could do a video on the creation of a painting/clean room?
The Iron Man Space suit looks like he has no neck 😂
Bro turned into deathstroke in spraying the helmet 💀
can you do a guide on doing the helmet in pieces for those of us with the smaller printers?
I kind of have. I show how to split models up and also weld and fuse them base together
I love Dr. Fate
Make a deathstroke!! Please
What do those eyes look like from the inside? They look like they'd be bright enough to blind you during prolonged usage.
i'd love to see you get ahold of some of Polymakers cosPLA that's made to be easier to sand
I have some. Honestly? Not really too different
@@FranklyBuilt really? well suddenly im less mad that this a US exclusive
Frank do you still have the old Dr gate helmet that you have had in videos from a while ago
Do you have any instructions on the standins for your Iron Man Suits?
what would it look like if you wrapped it with the window tint?
You need to make the crucible sword from doom eternal
Would the sanding/priming technique work for any mask
Looks amazing! it would be great to get your opinion on using conductive spray paints and then electroplating helmets.
Hi, just saw this video, thanks alot, for I am thinking of doing a Doctor FAte cosplay.

What about using car wax to gloss it up? Would that work?
Can you make Rhinos helmet from the marvel's SpiderMan game plsss
Bro I love you work, its coming in handy for my White dino thunder ranger stuff. However I must ask, where did you get the hellbat file from thought?
i like goooollllddd!
