For the rebreather, you could even set it up to hook up to the sides of the helmet and actually use the vents in the back as air channels so it doesn't feel so restrictive!
Just noticed something you did but didn't mention and I feel like its a must for clear coats. I saw you did a "dust layer" of the clear. People, that is an absolute crucial step in applying clears! You never want to spray your clear on wet! Most issues people have with clears are they just shoot them on heavy and pay the consequences in the end! Great work on this Helmet bro!
10:41 that's about the color her body armor should be. So if someone's doing the armor as well they could just stop there for the body pieces then add more layers of red for the helmet and chest.
Thanks so much for this video I was surprised with a 3D printer as a gift and this was the first print that I needed to print in sections cause it's a ender 3. I followed your instructions and product suggestions and it came out AMAZING!! This was super helpful 👏🏾 👌🏾
Not only are your painting and building skills getting better, but your video production quality keeps improving as well. Your videos are on point with TESTED. Your editor (is it you?) Has been killing it lately. Also, the out take at the end might be my second favorite part of the video right behind the actual content.
Sir. You have no idea how much that means to me and my dedicated editor ( my wife) we’ve been managing and handling video edits much better now and she’s killing it
Holy crap!! Dude I didnt know that you could get a 3D print so polished! Seriously I bought a Samus helmet off Etsy it was $500 and it fell off my shelf and broke. :( And this one has lights and action looks SO SMOOTH. I also got 3 Power Ranger helmets and they were SO EXPENSIVE. I just bought a 3D printer now Im on my way to making all the props and helmets my heart desires!! Megaman X. Doom Guy! Im so excited thank you for the insparation.
That is SO COOL! It really does look amazing. Awesome job, Frank. With Samus' helmet now in the books, you're kind of obligated to make Link's Master Sword. Just kidding, you do you my dude 😂😂. Thanks for sharing and blessings!
This is honestly amazing work I personally like the dread helmet more than her other helmets. You should do one of Doom Slayers helmet from Doom Eternal or Master Chiefs helmet
Frank i Hope you see this because my fookos 3D printer stopped working and I have tried everything to get it fixed and even went down to the people that have made it and nothing seems to make it work again. So I would be very happy if you told me a different printer and you know for a fact that it works. Mad respect man keep doing what your doing I’m glad you have found your passion😌
I have to say, I love the Samus helmet the best over your other helmets. Just because I grew up with playing Metroid and beating the game!! Wooohooo. Not saying I don't care for a good Iron Man movie from time to time. Keep up the amazing work.
Mate this is fantastic. I will be working on this. I print little models for the kids and random tut i don't need mainly because i get scared of a power cut within the 3 day print lol But this is epic and I will be taking the chance!. Thank you so much for the tutorial. Amazing stuff.
Hey man, I'm a fan from BackyardNinjas, I just wanted to say I think it's amazing you've found success here and managed to do so much good. Much love and keep at it. It's crazy how time flies.
I saw and played the game and it is a masterpiece, great game, definitely recommend checking it out, you will love it. Great job with working on the helmet, looks exactly like the game!!!🔥🔥💯🎨
Hey man I love the video as always the hole tinting thing I was glad to hear you did 3 try’s cuz I have tinted my helmets and it’s difficult lol I even had my wife try which she did grate. It’s really the cheapest way to go if you can do it 👍👍🇨🇦 have a good one
Hi Frank. I wanted to see how you made the green visor for this helmet. I have a Vigilante helmet (from MAX series Peacemaker) with a dark red visor. I was wearing the costume when I saw you at SDCC last week! Anyway I did something similar to what you did. Traced out the 3D lens onto a plastic gel and glued it to the visor frame. It was barely held in because there isn't a large surface area to glue the visor to the frame. I ended up making a few spare visors in case the visor came off the frame. If I had a thicker visor it would be rigid and easier to attach to the frame. My idea was to cut out the visor in a thicker pexiglass and shaping it with a heat gun. This will be difficult to get right. So my question is, can you print a transparent visor with a resin printer? Have you ever tried it? I've seen a few videos which makes me think it's possible. I'm just not sure how transparent I can get it. I haven't taken the plunge into resin printing myself. P.S. I see that you applied a green film to the clear plastic sheet for your visor. Have you tried colored gels that are used for theater lighting? They are flexible like what you are using, but you can get them in many different colors. You can get an assortment of colors from Amazon to get the right shade. I used a green and red gel to get the color I wanted. Plain red was too light. Cheers mate!
another great video Frank. Have you ever printed any figurines or scaled statues? I'm actually working on a 1/3 scale IronMan from "Did3D" but I'm following your tutorials for all the painting. It was great to see the layering of the gold and then multiple red. How long did you wait for the gold to dry before applying the red on top? Curious your thoughts on a base of silver instead of gold. Another thing I noticed was that when you did the clear coat it almost seemed to have dulled it in the first layer but then the 2nd pass brought back the clarity and color.
i would love to see a printed green goblin helmet!! one from the sam raimi spiderman and now in spiderman nwh! i was telling my brother when i finally get a 3d printer ill be printing a ironman mk3 and mk85 helmet and the green goblin helmet! love the content keep it coming!
Frank I followed your tutorial and everything looked great but when I woke up today I noticed the paint had started cracking. Do you know why this could have happened?
@@FranklyBuilt I think you are right... I got a bit excited and impatient and applied the clear coat about an hour after the red. I just recently re-watched the part where you said you waited a couple days.... Ooops! :D
Frank, can you advise which scaling direction should be more taken into consideration, X or Y. I'm measuring on meshmixer the X distance and Y distance of the head opening and trying to decide if I should scale uniformly or scale individually?
Can you PLEASE make a video on best support settings for helmets, I own two Sidewinider X1s I only print large things like armor helmets etc. Printing supports for such large objects can make a print time go from a day to 4 days. I noticed in a lot of your videos you have minimal supports when I see unfinished projects. I would love to know how to accomplish that for fast printing armor (mainly helmets)
@@FranklyBuilt awesome! What about aorind servos too? Would that impair their movements and if you don't cover them would anything like longer hair get caught in them you think?
@@FranklyBuilt my bad, brainfarted for a sec😂 Forgot it wasn't an iron man helmet, but I meant to specify that I'm referring to helmets with servos, like an iron man one hahah
Question: How would you go about putting two smaller peices together with quite alot of detail? I looked at videos and the soldering iron looked best. However I dont want to damage the detail of the print.

the Respirator is a great idea visually and also helps to not fog up the visor!

Yes you’re right! I’m so sorry I skipped that 🤦♂️
@@FranklyBuilt you’re good! Just wanted to point that out. I get asked frequently about my clear coat application.
THank you for pointing that out. I mentioned it in my other comment and was confused why. Now I will look up dust layer for clear!
@@offearth3d just to be clear... by "dust layer" you mean just do a very very light layer first? thank you
@@thecyberhobbit that is correct. Dust the entire piece, let it setup for about 5 minutes before you move to a wetter coat.
That respirator completes it! Great job.
I love how everytime i need help with some specific thing such as adding Lights to the helmet and a cheap way to do it frank always comes through.
Heck yeah!
10:41 that's about the color her body armor should be. So if someone's doing the armor as well they could just stop there for the body pieces then add more layers of red for the helmet and chest.

It definitely needed that respirator without it, it would’ve been incomplete I like it 🤘🏼

That's awesome. i was playing the game just last week. And that respirator was definitely the last accent it needed. Totally dope.love ur channel man.

I NEED THIS!!!!! This helmet looks BEAUTIFUL, I love Metroid, and to see the level of detail on this helmet is amazing!
Thank you for this video. These complete how-to really give us confident to do it ourselves. Great work as usual.
that orange primer got me thinking about Home Depot edition Samus
Damnnnnnnnnnn, your finishes have improved so much since the last time I watched.
super awesome video man. really helpful tips throughout
frank killing it again!
The production quality of your videos is on another level now, man. Excellent video!
Man, thank you! My wife is my new editor haha she’s killing it
🥰🥰🥰
The helmet looks amazing!…makes me want to print on out now…🤔
That is SO COOL! It really does look amazing. Awesome job, Frank. With Samus' helmet now in the books, you're kind of obligated to make Link's Master Sword. Just kidding, you do you my dude 😂😂. Thanks for sharing and blessings!
Dang you right
This is honestly amazing work I personally like the dread helmet more than her other helmets. You should do one of Doom Slayers helmet from Doom Eternal or Master Chiefs helmet
Looks great frank! Now to complete things you should print out samsus' Metroid suit helmet from the end of the game
Ooooo
Frank i Hope you see this because my fookos 3D printer stopped working and I have tried everything to get it fixed and even went down to the people that have made it and nothing seems to make it work again. So I would be very happy if you told me a different printer and you know for a fact that it works. Mad respect man keep doing what your doing I’m glad you have found your passion😌
Hi Frank, another great video about making a 3D print , sanding and painting. I can wait until I complete my classic Ironman suit.
Heck yeah I can’t wait too see it
I will post pictures when I finish, I’m printing the faceplates now.
I have to say, I love the Samus helmet the best over your other helmets. Just because I grew up with playing Metroid and beating the game!! Wooohooo. Not saying I don't care for a good Iron Man movie from time to time. Keep up the amazing work.
I cant believe you really did it!!!!! I remember when I asked a while back and I finally see it!!!!😁😁😁😁😁😁 thansk you for making my dream a reallity
Awesome video buddy. The helmet is so clean i can't wait to build one for myself.
Thank you!
Mate this is fantastic. I will be working on this. I print little models for the kids and random tut i don't need mainly because i get scared of a power cut within the 3 day print lol But this is epic and I will be taking the chance!. Thank you so much for the tutorial. Amazing stuff.
I wanna make this
Step 1: buy a 3D printer
I seem to be stuck
Awesome helmet, it looks so real. I’ll be making mine out of foam lmao
Looks INCREDIBLE, dude!
Great video Frank! Turned out really well
Super cool! I’m saving for my first 3D printer super excited to start making cool stuff!
Pretty sure I say this every time you make something new…but this is my favorite build yet! 🔥 🤤
Spot on 🔥🔥
Might try this method for my Mando cosplay. I was wanting to make a red visor that glows.
I was literally just talking about making one of these today and this popped up. Looks so good!! 😃🖤
Yooooo! That looks so sick!
That's pretty cool
Dude yes, that's friggin' sick!
Hey man, I'm a fan from BackyardNinjas, I just wanted to say I think it's amazing you've found success here and managed to do so much good. Much love and keep at it.
It's crazy how time flies.
Thank you so much man!
This one came out amazing!
Awesome job as always, now I'll have to print one as well.
Insane🤯
Frank with the camera angles 🤌🏻🤌🏻
Thanks my dude

The respirator really does complete it!
never heard of samus but thats a cool helmet!
LETS GOOOO!! Hell yeah Frank!!
🔥🔥🔥
Second, finally posting this, I started building one my self
When Metroid Prime 4 comes out, make her full suit!
yooo thats sick!
Incredible video!
Make more of these!
Of these videos? Haha I have tons
Another awesome video.
Thanks!
My personal favorite thinmg boout this helment is the respirator, it helps create the idea fiurther that it's a helment.
Metroid games are my favourite
1:30 Where do I get this helmet model? not from the new version of Dread but from Prime 3
I’m going to get them to 3-D printing soon
Bad ass man!!!!
If you connected the pipes from the mask to the actual respirator mask so you can breath through it would be cool with voice modification.
Oh that would be some next level mods lol
Now that u have the helmet u gotta do the arm cannon 🔥
Damn this look so sick
Amazing work as always.

Make zire to do a dark samus helm 👏
DOPE 😎👌👍
Great video by any chance do you sell some of these helmets ?
Is it possible to even print this on my bambu a1? I feel like its not unless i break it up quite a bit
Haven't played the new one yet 😅 but that's sick!
I’m trying to get into making helmets and models like this and I was wondering what a good starter helmet project would be?
I like the mk85 iron man helmets or a Nova helmet
You should totally make a doom outfit and mask dude

@@FranklyBuilt YET!!
Full Varia Suit one day?
subscribed in hopes to see more like this genre
sweet
i would love to see a printed green goblin helmet!! one from the sam raimi spiderman and now in spiderman nwh! i was telling my brother when i finally get a 3d printer ill be printing a ironman mk3 and mk85 helmet and the green goblin helmet! love the content keep it coming!
It’s in work’
@@FranklyBuilt yes!!! Thank you!
Frank I followed your tutorial and everything looked great but when I woke up today I noticed the paint had started cracking. Do you know why this could have happened?
You might’ve not waited long enough to apply the next coat!
@@FranklyBuilt I think you are right... I got a bit excited and impatient and applied the clear coat about an hour after the red. I just recently re-watched the part where you said you waited a couple days.... Ooops! :D
Frank, can you advise which scaling direction should be more taken into consideration, X or Y. I'm measuring on meshmixer the X distance and Y distance of the head opening and trying to decide if I should scale uniformly or scale individually?
You need to scale them all together
Are you using armor Smith with the star boots
Frank, do you plan on completing the whole suit in the near future?
Can you make the Bisento that whitebeard uses in the marinefort, plssssss im begging
Wow, if I could put one of these together with a decent working respirator, I'd never wear a basic mask out again 😄
🔥🔥🔥🔥 watching your videos motivates me to turn my printer on. Have you printed a helmet completly out of resin?
Yep!
Haven't watched ya in a while glad to see you're doing well. Are you full-time now?
Nope! Still side hobby
Can you PLEASE make a video on best support settings for helmets, I own two Sidewinider X1s I only print large things like armor helmets etc. Printing supports for such large objects can make a print time go from a day to 4 days. I noticed in a lot of your videos you have minimal supports when I see unfinished projects. I would love to know how to accomplish that for fast printing armor (mainly helmets)
I have a few videos on settings and what not you should check
Do you put anything inside your helmets to avoid them shaking around or rattling on your head? Padding, foam, some sort of plastic crown?
Yep! I use foam and felt
@@FranklyBuilt awesome! What about aorind servos too? Would that impair their movements and if you don't cover them would anything like longer hair get caught in them you think?
What do you mean? Servos? In this type of helmet?
@@FranklyBuilt my bad, brainfarted for a sec😂 Forgot it wasn't an iron man helmet, but I meant to specify that I'm referring to helmets with servos, like an iron man one hahah
looks fucking nice bro 👍
Thanks for your detailed videos. I wonder which nozzle size you use. Can a 0.6mm save time since we may sand the helmet anyway?
Yeah you. Could
@@FranklyBuilt I can only sand by hand. Is it possible or a electric tool is necessary?
What did you use for the primer?
How long did you leave the red to dry?
That’s soooooo sick dude. Where did you put the battery pack?
How do you spray helmets so close together, indoors, without getting overspray on the other helmets?
I’m just careful I guess haha
Okay I am here looking for how you made this breathable aaaand how to make my Lenses more visible
Do resin helmets break easier if they fall? What’s stronger? Resin or Filament
Sooooo just a question how much for a 3d print of clouds buster sword and or a monster hunter greatsword and how shall I get it delivered XD
Question: How would you go about putting two smaller peices together with quite alot of detail? I looked at videos and the soldering iron looked best. However I dont want to damage the detail of the print.
Frank just an idea, what if you made Daredevils weapons, or poles, whatever you want to call them??, or Wolverines helmet from X-Men??
Nah I haven’t yet. Wolverines helmet may be cool
Cool cool 👍🏼👍🏼
Great job with your props!!
Make predator from 1987 and glowing eyes. Think that would be well cool🙏
1:24 ok take my like
