3D printed cosplay items. Characters of games, movies, comics

Cosplay is an amazing opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of science fiction, fantasy, computer games, universes of anime, fairy tales, action movies and movies. However, there is a downside to all this miracle - the need to create complex costumes, props and accessories with the finest detail. And to do this with papier-mâché is not possible. 3D technologies come to the rescue.

3D Services provides 3D printing and 3D modeling services for cosplay items. Our experts are ready to help with 3D modeling and 3D printing of elements of any complexity. nine0003

Advantages of 3D printing in cosplay

Advantages of using 3D printing in cosplay mass:

  • the ability to implement a project of any degree of accuracy and detail;
  • space saving - no need to store a lot of materials for hand-made;
  • time saving - printing is much faster than manual labor;
  • a wide range of materials for implementation;
  • maximum character match.

However, printing cosplay elements is not just pressing the start button on the printer, there are a lot of subtleties and nuances. nine0003

Difficulties in 3D printing for cosplay

Why is the help of specialists in 3D printing of cosplay elements necessary? In fact, there are a lot of nuances that only those who are familiar with the possibilities of 3D printing can easily cope with.

  1. The choice of printing technology - in most cases, FDM printing is used, since this option is the most budgetary. However, variations are also possible. It all depends on the specific task.
  2. The choice of equipment It is no secret that different models of 3D printers differ in size, print quality, accuracy indicators, the possibility of combining materials, etc. nine0012
  3. Material selection - most products are processed and dyed after printing, so it's not only, and sometimes not so much in color, but in the characteristics of the materials. There are materials rigid, elastic, flexible, firm, transparent. It all depends again on the requirements. In addition, post-processing will also play a role, since not all materials lend themselves to simple post-processing.
  4. The choice of 3D printing characteristics - printer settings, printing, use of supports - all this is very important for the result. nine0012
  5. The accuracy of 3D modeling is a professional issue on which a lot will depend. If errors are made in the modeling, the result will also be unimportant.

Thus, 3D printing is a complex process that is best left to professionals.

Application of 3D printer for making cosplay elements, application examples

07.10.2021

Contents0003

Cosplay should not be confused with role-playing, because cosplay does not imply the development of the character or history of the character. It focuses on the detailed reproduction of the image of the character to the smallest detail.

Some people think that cosplay is limited to curvy girls in skimpy outfits, but this is far from the case. The skill of some cosplayers is amazing. They manage to single-handedly create amazing things with precision and detail that many workshops cannot reproduce. nine0003


Terminator suit from Warhammer 40k

A good cosplay is not only an external correspondence to the appearance of the selected character, it is the ability to convey the character and other features of the character (for example, characteristic movements, facial expressions, etc. ). At photo shoots, with the help of Photoshop, they try to add the atmosphere of the world in order to better convey the nuances of the character.

It is believed that the term Cosplay was coined by Japanese journalist Nobuyuki Takahashi. The word itself is a combination of the initial letters of the word costume (costume) and play (play). nine0003

The advantage of 3D printing for costume elements

Previously, a cosplay costume was literally made from improvised materials. Each, to the best of his skills, available tools and ingenuity, used various, mainly construction, materials to assemble the costume - isolon, glue gun, tourist rugs, etc.

Now available special materials for the manufacture of parts. The most popular of them is Eva foam. nine0003

Eva

Eva is a very convenient material for making a variety of armor. The biggest advantage over other materials is thermoplasticity. When heated, eva easily bends, and after cooling, it keeps its shape. On sale you can find eva foam of various hardness and thickness.


Making armor from eva

But there are certain nuances - for the correct cutting of eva, patterns are needed (there are special patterns or patterns for pepakura are redone). When cutting, it is necessary to take into account the location of the edges and make the cut not straight, but at an angle. Sections, after gluing, must be further processed with sandpaper. The surface of eva is porous, so it is advisable to treat the surface with latex before painting to obtain a smooth surface. For painting and putty, it is desirable to use elastic materials, because eva still remains a little flexible. nine0003

Pepakura

Papercraft - this is the name of patterns (reamers) for the manufacture of various elements from paper.

Not only cosplayers are addicted to papercraft, for some it is enough to glue a paper model for a collection.

Usually pepakura is used as an inexpensive and easy way to make massive armor when there is no way to get eva foam.

First, the paper model is glued together. Paper is usually chosen with a high density to minimize the risk of deformation of the model during further work. nine0003


Finished paper model

After gluing, the model must be strengthened. For this, fiberglass and epoxy resin are usually used. When impregnating a paper model, it is very important to ensure that the geometry of the model does not "lead". Usually epoxy and fiberglass are applied in several layers. Before applying a new layer, it is necessary to wait for the polymerization of the old one, usually it takes 24 hours.

The resulting model is strong, but too angular. Models in papercraft are high-poly and it is necessary to manually smooth out the angularity with putty and sandpaper. After painstakingly removing the surface of the model, it can be painted. nine0003


Left paper model, right after strengthening, processing and painting

Models made by this method are very heavy due to epoxy and putty. And the manufacture of one product takes a lot of time, but this method remains popular because of its availability and low cost. Epoxy can be found in any building market, and fiberglass is easily interchangeable with other materials.

Modeling and casting

This method is suitable when you need to quickly produce many identical parts. A master model is made (for example, from plasticine) and a mold is removed from it using special silicone, into which epoxy, special two-component plastics or polyurethanes can then be poured, depending on what characteristics you need to get in the finished product.


2-component plastic purity print with metallic powder

To color the finished casting, you can knead the dye into liquid plastic or rub the mold with special powders.

It makes sense to make silicone molds if you need to make many identical elements, it is not advisable to remove the silicone mold for one casting. Silicone is still not cheap and not everywhere you can buy it. In addition, it is necessary to have some skills in silicone and plastic/resin casting in order to minimize the amount of air bubbles and get a quality casting. nine0003

Handy materials

And of course, masters know how to use the most unexpected things for cosplay. For example, PVC pipes are often used to make frames for fantasy weapons. Izolon for making feathers for wings, etc.

3D printing

Using a 3D printer to make a complete costume may not always be advisable due to the high cost. But in the manufacture of elements with complex geometry, small elements or high detail, it can greatly facilitate the task and save a lot of time. A 3D printer becomes indispensable for printing engineering, moving elements. This is very convenient when a seat for all wiring and electronics is immediately included in the model and you don’t have to puzzle over where to place everything after assembly. nine0003

But 3D printing also has its drawbacks. When fabricated on an FDM printer, models must be further processed to obtain a smooth surface. If you print on a photopolymer printer, then the cost of the finished product will be quite high. Large elements of the costume will have to be printed in parts and then glued together.

Cosplay 3D Printer Application Examples

Whole Costume Printing

A 3D printer is becoming an indispensable tool for manufacturing geometrically complex suits or, for example, functional elements of armor. nine0003

Iron Man armor.

Emily Yarid has been modeling, building and refining Iron Man armor since 2013. She initially took it up out of boredom, deciding to upgrade the costume she had.

In the Tony Stark suit, the reactor glows, the helmet automatically closes and opens. On the back there are functional "wings" that open and close.

The girl uses a 3D printer to make armor elements. After printing, she processes and paints the details herself.

Armor 3D model

The armor is almost entirely 3D printed. There are a lot of issues that need to be addressed in modeling to keep the armor as mobile as it is in the game.

Pre-assembly of the upper part of the armor before gluing and processing. nine0095

The armor part is pre-cut into several parts and printed in parts on an FDM printer. After printing, be sure to check how the parts fit together, as the plastic may shrink unevenly.


Treated and painted hand protection

Costume print

Making a full-fledged costume using 3D printing is not always justified. Simple shapes are much faster and cheaper to make from other materials such as eva. nine0003

But complex parts such as helmets, weapons, armor elements are much more accurate if they are made using 3D printing.


Steam Punk Star Wars Helmet

Hand making all the patterns would take much longer, and it is important to make all the patterns symmetrical. This is a very painstaking work that requires a lot of patience, perseverance and experience. nine0003


Iron Man Steampunk Helmet


Composite weapon

Some elements seem quite simple to manufacture, but it can be very difficult, even with a template, to make symmetrical and smooth bends.


Wolverine's Collectible Helmet


Master model making

Sometimes the material with the desired properties is found only among foundry resins and plastics. But to remove the form, you still need a master model.

Epoxy sword casting

It was necessary to make a transparent sword. Epoxy resin is well suited for manufacturing. The master model (except for the rose) was printed on a 3D printer.


Prepared master model 9009five

The sword was printed in half - it is much easier to get a high-quality casting without bubbles. The halves of the sword are still the same and can be glued together. After printing, the surface of the master model was brought to perfect smoothness and primed.

Formwork is being prepared from improvised materials for pouring silicone molds


Preparation of the master model for filling with silicone

A slightly tinted epoxy resin is poured into the resulting mold to give an icy blue tint. After casting, 2 halves can be glued together with the same epoxy. nine0003

The result is a stunning sword, as if carved from ice. Such an effect would be difficult to achieve using other materials.
