We’re excited to share that we’ve completed 3D Printing all of the T-60 parts for the Full-Sized Armor set!
There’s still a lot of work ahead in the hand finishing, painting and assembly departments… but it feels good to complete this big milestone.
We’d like to share these two videos. In the first, our team member David explains what went into 3D Printing this entire suit of T-60 Armor on the Mantis fleet.
In the second video, Rob explains what goes into painting these parts to achieve the desired “distressed” look. Special effort must be made to achieve realistic scars, rust and patina.
Once these steps are completed, the suit of armor will go to our project partner Kat Mahoney at TheGeekGrid to carry out final fitting. We’re very excited to see the complete armor set worn for the first time!
The complete T-60 Armor Set will be revealed to the public at the upcoming STEAMFest 2021. Learn more about STEAMFest 2021 here.
