Dude, you've become my favorite prop making channel over night. A lot of channels are really good at showing you how they go from point A to B in a very precise way and it leaves me feeling like I have tunnel vision, like their way is the only way. What is unique about your channel is that you're teaching people to learn. That's such an underrated skill but you do it so well. I'm currently making a full Mandalorian costume, and while most of the suit I know how to make, I still struggle to get the metallic finishes I'm after. But showing off just how much you trial and error things is fantastic because it tells me that no, air brushing is not the only way to achieve what I want, and if I spend enough time with this I'll figure out how to do things the way I'm trying to go about them. So, thank you a ton for posting these videos.
Can I like this comment twice? Dude thank you so much. I really don’t know what to say to that. I’m trying man. I love teaching. And I know my way is far from the only way. I just recently tried my first candy coat paint and messed it all up lol
So again. Thank you. For real. Please don’t be a stranger and let me know if you have any requests or suggestions!
@@FranklyBuilt So, I have a background in 3D modeling, been doing it since 2014, and what I've found is that it's way harder to figure out alternative routes to a similar end goal in prop making... not because it isn't possible, but finances step in the way. In CAD programs I can easily hop in one and without spending a dime try and model a helmet in like 20 different ways. I've actually iterated my character sculpting process I think ten times over the years and just recently found a workflow that's pretty powerful, but that didn't require me going to amazon and waiting a couple days only to find the results weren't satisfactory.
So I get why I find so many youtube videos where people are making the same prop and yet none of them differ at all, and then you go to forums and everyone has like the tried and true method and there's not really incentive to push a boundary because of that.
What really gets me is that I thought for sure I was never going to achieve the quality of paint I wanted with rattle cans, I thought I was doomed to airbrushing (which I'll probably pick up in the future but I have so many other things going on, I really don't have time for it), but after seeing the work you produced I now know it's totally possible and that I just have to keep learning from mistakes.
The whole reason I even found your channel is because I started working on my Mando costume again today and I got so tired of manually sanding all the parts, I knew there had to be a faster way, and boom, your channel showed that you can absolutely use power tools... but with the right control. But then I got roped in watching you go through all the primers, and man your workflow is just so simple compared to everything else I've seen, it's astonishing. Also I'm glad I found that video because it confirmed that the primer I've been using (The grey filler primer) is just way too thick for my needs, so I'm glad I found an alternative that won't kill my sandpaper so quickly.
But yeah thank you for these videos! If I wind up finishing this costume I'll share the final product.
Cuda Core man I totally get that 100%. When I started printing last year everyone said you can’t use power tools and I listened. I wasted so much time and effort on bondo and crappy hand sanding and eventually I just said “dude this sucks”
I hate spoon feeding people; it aggravates me so much because you don’t learn anything. Like asking for printer profiles and what did you learn about settings? Nothing.
Painting is a nightmare of testing and trial and error and no tutorial will ever cover it all; any that claim too are lying or stupid.
So I want to teach people to experiment and go through the trials that ARE required. I have so many more tutorials planned just. Not enough time lol 😂
@@FranklyBuilt I cannot begin to describe how much I detest bondo, when I saw you using wood filler that was also a big eye opener because it just looks so much easier. I'm very happy with how far I got with my mando helmet, but the seams are all still visible, and that has to be fixed. Thankfully I don't have to hand sand the entire thing all over again!
This is so wholesome
thanks again for another awesome video Frank! love how you guide us to find our own way so we can learn. The brains a muscle and you gotta exercise it as well. Just got 3 kg of filament in and already got my printer going, cant wait to finish printing off my helmet, not much longer now, so this vid came just in time for me, Thanks a bunch man
thanks man ,a lot of useful tips for everyone who wants to get smoother prints and best finish
this and the primer tutorial were so helpful and i am more confident in what i am going to do with painting my 3d printed Dr Fate helmet!👍👍👍👍👍
Dude. THANK YOU!! You SERIOUSLY need to get paid for all of the tutorials that you put out there!! (PATREON PLUG RIGHT HERE!) ;-)
Getting Fit at 50 bro no problem at all hah
Really love your videos - looking forward to your top coat video
Love the videos. I'm waiting for the promised Clear Coat / Gloss follow up :D
It’s in work! Haha
I definitely appreciate your philosophy on learning. From my experience I gained so much more when I went beyond tutorials, tried out things myself and used the products I found locally. It's especially relevant when you don't live in US of A and can't find brands like Plasti Dip, Krylon, Barge etc that appear in lot of tutorials (and not just from people living in States). After all, these are just brands and there must be some products out there that match your needs.
I see it a lot on cosplay groups that people expect to be spoonfed with tips, when they really could just do a simple google search, or as you said, do a little trial on error. I mean as long as you're not fiddling with high voltage electronics and you have some common sense, what can go wrong?
That’s my point exactly. I’m glad people are being receptive to it. You CANT have a true painting tutorial. You can’t. Not when it comes to things like this. Airbrushing and professional spraying maybe but even then it’s still all technique and learning. I don’t intend to spoon feed anyone. I refuse.
Awesome work bud, as a fellow painter you're absolutely spot on. I'm printing my own MK7 suit now and know it's gonna be difficult and fully expect to spend more time prepping and painting than even printing lol. Keep the vids coming.
Hey thanks man! It’s really it’s own art haha you Surely know that.
your the man very great info
Thanks for the tips! Your workspace looks like a scene from Dexter though :-)
Hey I'm late to the show and I used your play list to check out the priming and preping video plus the paint video but I couldn't find the clear coat video. Did you do a video for the clear coat of those iron man parts
Finally the moment we all have been waiting for lol 🤙🏼
90 degrees and 88% humidity makes it hard to paint here! Good info nonetheless, thanks for putting these videos out!
What I do is spray, then bring the part inside to dry. That seems to get me better results in a hot and humid climate.
Love the video Frank thank you! Do you have any videos or tips on how to do different colors on the same piece? I’m brand new to spray painting. Thanks in advance!
I kind of cover it in my mk85 build series. You just need good painters tape
@@FranklyBuilt Thanks! I’ll check it out
thank you very much for this video!
Do you use a base coat for your rustoleum metallic red? Got the same stuff!
Recommendation for best white paint? Trying to get a gloss finish to match my white vehicle, as I am painting car parts.
Good job man
This is such a good video. Thanks.
I’m from the UK as well, which rust-oleum paints did you go for? Red metallic, elegant gold and which grey?
Yep! And I use sky grey metallic
@@FranklyBuilt thank you! I thought it might of been!
I'm in the process of painting some models right now. Filled sanded and put my first coat on. Looks quite good already... do you flatten between paint coats. Also do you flatten befor clear coating and inbetween clear coats? Thank u :)
Do you need to remove ALL the layer lines so they don't transfer thru to the top coat, or is that too a matter of experimenting with the primer and paint combo? Thanks for sharing!
The more you remove in the sand/prime stage the less will appear. Paint and clearcoat won’t hide them
So do you have a video on sand and repainting messed up spray jobs
Do you apply a finish once finishing the painting? I've been tempting to use 2K clear coat to give everything good protection.
Yep that’s a great clearcoat to use
Great video what is the name of the red colour for the captain America shield in the background I just made an aluminium one for my nephew but not sure what kind of red to try on it.
It’s a special artisan Spraypaint. I have a whole build video on it!
Just wondering, do you have a video on how to make the helmet 3D model fit your head since it fits on you so well
Aaran Poon I talk about that a lot in my scaling video actually! But maybe I could make a new video 👌🏼
I need to get into printing and painting my helmet again. I have some equipment I bought online and I have paint I need to use to get the best asthetic as possible!
Edit: Sentence Structure improvement.
Just about to buy filament but just wondering if there is any particular reason that you went with pla? I’m looking at eSUN pla+ because it is reasonably priced and available. Do you know of any downsides to the +? Thanks
PLA+ is just a little stronger and sands easier in my experience
Thank you for the info. What is pros/cons between using rattle cans to air-brushing?
Ease of application mostly
@@FranklyBuilt ok. I didn't know if paint availability or cost of airbrush equipment was a deciding factor. So, spray cans are easier to use/control? Thanks again for the info.
Have you ever tried hydro dipping any of your prints?
I’ve hydrodipped before just never a print
@@FranklyBuilt think it would work out well? Or do you see your method as being easier more time friendly?
I mean hydro dipping is just another form of painting. If prepped right it would work fine
What Rust-Oleum Red do use for the MK85 please
Automotive metallic red. It’s a UK only variation
@@FranklyBuilt that’s fine that’s where I live up in Lincolnshire near to the RAF Base where the Lancaster and Decota Live
I just printed my first helmet. I just want to know your or others method of taking the damn excess supports off lol.
Google Name I don’t have methods lol I just pull them off. Considering support placement and evaluating how many you’ll need and angles is a tricky thing. I’d they’re too hard to remove you need to work on some settings and temperatures
@@FranklyBuilt good to know. Also what is the name of the gold paint you used on your other project. I cant catch the name.
Google Name Rustoleum metallic gold
So I recently painted a mortal komabt mileena mask. It contains purple and metallic silver. I had some minor purple spray paint bleed onto the silver on the areas that were taped off. What do you recommend to fix this? I was thinking of using a good quality micro brush and gently touching up these areas. The key words being micro brush and gently...so I don't get brush strokes. Thoughts?
I've read that when you mask off a color, before using a different color give the piece a dusting of the previous color so that if there is any paint to bleed, it'll be what's under the tape already. You then move on to your next color.
If you put a thin coat of shoe polish on the silver rustoleum spray paint, you will be able to clear coat it
Testing that this weekend!!
what glossy panit u use to make the helmet shiny like that,mine glossy paint cant be that shiny
It’s not just about paint. You need to sand and smooth it properly
@@FranklyBuilt I have sharpened it to smooth, it's also smooth when I paint it, but when I add a layer of gloss, it's not as shiny as your
i love having my prints being able to see that they are 3d printed, i always sand but make sure i can still see layer lines. in my opinion it looks way cooler
This is like the 5th video about this topic so far on this channel
Insparational Chicken ? No its not? Lol
This is the first video on painting. You are probably thinking of the priming stage, which he has made a video on.
There had to be more,
I'm probably remembering it wrong
Insparational Chicken I mean. They’re MY videos. Lol I would know if I made multiple. I promise this is my first painting diy video haha 😂 I talk about it in other videos but never a tutorial
This is a random comment but
