Oh man the gold under came out amazing. That Metalcast paint is "FUN" but the results are amazing. Great video series!
The series of prepping a 3-d print is amazing. Thanks so much
You're a lifesaver. This is exactly what I wanted to do. Thanks for giving so many comparison types. Your choice of gold+ mettalic red + matt clear coat looks amazing
Subbed for probably the clearest step by step prep and paint tutorial I’ve seen.
Thanks for the sub man. Glad it helped. :)
I followed exactly step by step your instructions, the results were amazing 🔥
Awesome! Glad it helped.
The spoon test is really smart!
Thanks, can't take credit for that. I saw it on a lot of other paint tutorials. :)
Been following your two part videos all weekend and my mask came out amazing. Thank you
Man. That gold underbase with the matte finish... it just glows. So good.
Yeah, I was so glad I did the tests. :)
Gold under red, amazing!
Didn't think it would turn out that amazing.
Yeah, it was a great choice.
hey thank you so much I'm getting into 3d printing and this has helped so much with making things a final finish
Two videos in, this channel has quality written all over it - subbed.
Thanks!! I appreciate it. :)
This was very educational, thanks for this, I've subbed
that paint job is stunning!
Thanks😀😀
I love the matte. I didn't think I would, but I was wrong. It's awesome
Excellently produced video(s) Kevin :^D Keel up the villainy!
Much appreciated! Thanks! 😀
Great advice, staying in the same family of paints. Gold base and matte clear turned out awesome. I think I’m going to use that with the custom Mando armor I’m doing for someone 😉. Thanks for the idea and as always, awesome job!
Glad it was helpful! Good luck with the helmet!
This was very helpful thank you. Also thanks for posting the links to the products u used in the video
perfect material - thank you !
Glad u enjoyed it.
I ordered some Duck Brand non-adhesive shelf liners from Amazon and used them on the center section of my helmet. If you use that with your second coat of clear you can simulate a carbon fiber weave when the light hits it the right way.
Cool idea!
Looks great, thanks for sharing. 👍👌
You bet! Thanks 😀
I followed your vid on this helmet and mine turned out beautifully thank you!
Glad it helped!
Nice work with those colors and excellent explication!
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing Video Series!!!! Used this to paint my Darth Revan helmet & made a project out of it with my girlfriend! Thanks so much for going through all the steps & explaining everything! Can't wait for Halloween!
I think this might end up becoming a hobby of mine!
It looks great.
6:20 - Whoa, that is a beautiful end result.
Yeah, I am super happy with how it's turning out. :)
Very helpful video. Should help with making my T-800 bust silky smooth.
Thank you.
Excellent video! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dude you are awesome! and from Mexico and Im learning so much with your videos! :D
Thanks man, I appreciate it!! :)
Sinister sheen. Good choice. Nice work.
Thanks. Wait till I weather it. 🙂
Super helpful video. AAA quality!
Glad it was helpful! :))
Nice work!
Thanks! 😀
You're awesome. Thank you so much
Awesome awesome awesome! Great content!
Thanks so much!
Using the gold and red however I found a slightly different gold and love it
awsome job
Thanks a lot. I appreciate it. 🙂
that gold made it beautiful! I wouldn't have thought that could do that effect. very cool! would you suggest to do spray painting for small and tiny prints too?
Sure, that would work on small prints. Just use really light coats so you don't gum up the detail.
I just did a Red Hood helmet and for the black lines i thinned out the paint till it was runny and used a syringe to apply it. It ran down through the lines beautifully. Gravity baby!
Great idea!
How long did you wait between the gold and the red? And also how long did you wait before sanding the run? Beautiful result, here's hoping I can achieve the same :)
thanks for the video man , did you cover up inside of the helmet do not get paint into it ?
My favourite gold I’ve found is the Montana gold chrome gold
After you’ve given the part a good sand give it a good wet coat and I swear you’ll think your holding freshly cast and polished gold bars
Hey man loving your videos! Just a question though. Its is very difficult to find rustoleum products you use and I couldn’t find another brand that makes filler & sandable primer. Would it be possible to get similar results with just regular primer?
Hey man, great build! just wondering does the paint scratch off or no?
Hi, I’m very new at this. I have 3D resin of sixth scale iron man Id like to paint. Do you recommend airbrush or just brushing? Also what type of paint is recommended for each technique? I appreciate any help. Thank you! Subscribed.
QUESTION: Do you think it's possible to layer the metalcast purple and red to make a burgundy? I'm looking to re-create the color of the Washington Commanders helmets.
A black oil wash works really well for pin washing the “valleys” in the Red Hood Helm.
Cool, I'll have to try that. It sounds interesting.
I would love to see how it would compare to a primed and painted helmet that has not been sanded at all! :D
not sanded at all does not work with FDM... you will see the print lines. This is why people sand the model... it looks crispy. sure you can prime the heck out of it and get rid of the lines, but it will look bulky and uneven. give it a try and you will see pretty quickly that sanding for 15 minutes makes a huge difference.
Great video! I want to ask why, why did you put the finish before paintbrushing the black lines instead of doing the lines and then finish?
2:41 I love goooooold! The look of it! The tashte of it! The shmell of it! The texture!
LOL! gooooooold!
do you have a video where you show how to smooth the inside? If not what do you use to smooth the inside?
Was this all done same day?
Kevin you've done it again.
Thanks man!
Would a chrome undercoat paint still give a metallic shine to the object in case of a final black paint instead of red?
Amazing work and both videos are super clear at demonstration of techniques and tools! How many hours of work would you estimate this entire process from sanding to final product took?
Thanks man :) I'd say sanding, washing, priming, painting 8-9 hours.
@@3DPrintedProps am I mistaken if I say that with a little practice one can prime and sand this helmet for one hour and still get good results? Especially if the helmet does not have a lot of details and sharp corners, like the one you did on this video? let us know... great video.
I've got a question, whenever I hand paint my prints with acrylic or gives the print a shiny look but I don't want that, is there something I'm not doing correctly? I do prime the print before and sand it
dudeeeeeee!!!, you really safe me, i bought a hulkbuster and i looking for a video that help me so how give it this finish and when i almost gave up i found this!
Awesome! Glad it helped you!!
Loving how this looks. Is the red matte paint duplicolor? I don't think the brand for that was mentioned. I'm looking to do my helmet like this.
The red is gloss, its this amzn.to/3jsEgfG (affiliate link) its matte because I used a matte spray over it. :)
Thank you for all of your videos ! Best tutorials we can find here, keep the good job man.
Also : Is it possible to restart the paint after it dried and been varnished ? My Golden spray paint was not a good one and it ended up reacting with the varnish even 2weeks after it dried... I just want to took off the varnish and paint, and redone it without printing it again. Is it possible ?
If the paint can dry you can sand it all off, or close as you can. But if it won't sure there may not be another option. Sucks man.
The finish looks more like a satin, I love the look so far on to the next video.
Got them Adidas slides on I got the same ones!
Love those slides!!
This series is really helpfull. My prints finish well but it takes me a lot of extra steps. You did a good job of ordering sanding, priming and bondo efficiently. I'm curious about your painting though. I was under the impression I was supposed to wet sand between coats. My prints definitely benefit from it. With your method you get the print perfect and super smooth, paint without sanding and you don't have any orange peel?
Glad it was helpful! I have seen others sand in-between but I never have. I'm sure you would get an even glossier and smooth finish but this seems to work for me. :)
wow! the rendering is absolutely incredible! Unfortunately I have looked everywhere for these paints and varnishes in Europe but they are nowhere to be found and not available for shipment. Does anyone know of an equivalent for France, the UK or Germany?
Yeah, that's always a problem, you have a few paints and fillers I would love that I can't get.
Have you ever used resin on a print then sanded the used primer does it make the process faster?
How long did you wait in between applying the base gold coat and the top coat metal cast?
looking at your - searching for Super Nova helmet... are these sized to be wearable?
Thank you for the video but I am not clear at what stage you used this chrome paint , Dupli-Color ECS101007 Chrome Instant Enamel Spray
I'm trying to paint a Daredevil helmet and I'm sort of new to sanding, priming, and painting 3D prints. I want to give it like a matte red look for my helmet. Are there any techniques I could use that you recommend?
How many layers of the gold and red did you do when I tested it was really dark
hi , i love your video's , they help me so much! i am making a captain amarica shield , i still haven't chosen what colors i want to use , because i don't want to copy the flag. any suggestions ?
Firstly, thank you for creating such easy to follow and thorough videos! I just finished watching the previous lesson, and was curious if I can use acrylic paint over the 2 in 1 primer? If so, should i let the primer cure for a much longer period of time, or can I just let it dry, wet sand, then wash, then paint?
Sure, u can use acrylic paint. Just let the primer dry as long as directed. At least 24 hours
This is really amazing!! I want to replicate this, You mentioned using a matte instead of glossy to finish it off. What brand or type of matte finish did you use. I only see a link to the high gloss one in your description.
Thanks for letting me know. I fixed it. Here it is though. Its an affiliate link Thanks. amzn.to/3hBUMsn
I looked through your videos and didn’t see a Mando helmet. Mine is just coming off the 3-D printer and I have a lot of content saved on how to do it but I know for this helmet I need it to be super reflective. Do you have any tips?
How did you get those forehead "wrinkles" so clean, was this a single piece print? I only have an Ender 3 V2 Neo so my Mando Helmet printed in 8 pieces, (13 when you add his "ears" and rear vent"
can you do a video on masking and painting?
Great idea. It's on the list. :)
@@3DPrintedProps awesome! Thanks can't wait!
Hey bro so it's like ,50 degrees here and I decided to paint in my garage. I got some reaction the cracked up and veined up. What is the preferred thing to do when painting? Do I heat the paint up?
How much time i have to let dry the paint before apply the clear coat, im having color change and dripping of the base color
How do you get the matte look?
Gold hood looks amazing tooo 🍿🤏😎
Thanks man!!😀
Should’ve did the acrylic prior to clear coat. But still a very dope project
Yeah, I like to do it after, especially the weathering. This way it can still take more wear and look different over time.
if I apply a clear coat like that since I didn't use a metallic paint will the 3d print still look matt?
I am currently working on a 3D print of the Master Sword from the Legend of Zelda. But I can't find a good blue/purple spray paint. Do you have any suggestions?
Firstly, incredible! but im wondering, would it not have been more beneficial to do the acrylic black or any other cutting in work before you put the clear matte on the mask? or would this not work with the acrylic?
Yes, I probably should have, but I just got ahead of myself. :P
I'm completely new to working 3D printing props, and advice to brand new newbie? The first print I'm planning is for Raine Whispers of The Owl House, their violin. I know it's bit of a bigger build and I probably should start smaller, but there's nothing smaller I really plan right now, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!! (Also really want to have the red hood helmet, so if my first build goes well I'm doing that next!!)
you should try learning car painting. the paint job you did would come out better with less orange peel, also if you use blue masking tape you don't have to worry about being sloppy. also the painting technique in auto paints is called "candy" which is a basecoat of gold, chrome, or more commonly silver metallic and a colored semi transparent of clear coat on top to show the base coat underneath, that's the candy part. car paints also have something called chameleon/ DNA which is a color shift technology. just remember to use organic rated cartridges for the respirator, and those do have an expiration so keep them inside ziplock bags
Would love to learn how to paint on that scale. :)
If I mess up, can I just sand again and try again or will I have to re print it
Great finish. However, your spraying technique could do with some refinement. Mainly this… spray past your work piece, stop, start then pass back over the work piece. If you change direction on the workpiece you’ll more likely to over spray at that turning point.
Keep up the good work!
Ment to ask this in the previous video. I let my primer/ filler dry for a day, sanded, and washed. When I wash is a lot of the primer comes off. How long should I let it dry before washing? Some what new to this but your videos are very informative
I let the filler dry a full 24 hours before sanding an washing. It should not come off at that point.
How long before the matte top coat did you wait from the red being fully applied?
It says wait 24 hours, but it was very humid so I waited a couple days.
What would you recommend for a Batman cowl I want black matte but I want a similar metal sheen to your red hood there
I would test like a black car paint with some fleck in it and the use a matt spray to see how that looks. And or test a high gloss black with a matt spray. I've never tried that, would like to see how it looks.
Did you sand before the clearcoat? Ive heard youre supposed to do that for the clear to adhere
What golf base spray paint did you use? Rustoleum or duplicolor? Is there a link I can go to to get the same one u used?
Hello, I use this for my primer. amzn.to/3eVLtCi (aff link)
is there a specific link to that rustoleum gold you used?
Hello, thanks for letting me know its not there. I just added it. Here it is, its an affiliate link. amzn.to/3Jjuabw
Hey boss I’m having problems sanding off a few runs of the red duplicolor paint, any bonus tips for getting rid of them?
Just take it slow and work it down. Maybe use a courser grit to start, then go up to smooth it all out.
Hey I was wondering if your doing multiple colors how long should I let one color dry before taping it off the apply a new color
I would wait 24 hours. Maybe longer if u live in an area that's cold or has high humidity. I've screwed more than more project up taping to fast
Hi. Question, is it absolutely necessary to clear coat? I have primed and sanded my pieces. But with the test spoons (thanks for the tip!), the clear coat turns my paint job yellow. Trying to find the best option of protecting my pieces but getting the look I want.
Not at all. But know that if you don't put on a corrective coating the paint can scratch. I've had issue in the past too, the key thing is to test everything before putting it on your final print.
I put a clear coat on a print of mine, and it dried white and had lots of cracks. How do I avoid/fix this?
Is it okay if they are some bare spots from sanding the primer before painting? Or should I make sure there is primer in every nook and cranny?
I would make sure its primed, but if there are little cracks and spots it should be ok, but if you can be sure its got a nice overall coat.
Try using painters tape. Masking is always better and faster than free hand painting
To fix runs for the Metal Cast Paint do you wait for it to cure? I have been doing super light coats 10 minutes apart and it still has some runs that I cant prevent.
No, its just a really runny paint. Just keep you distance with the can make sure its dry and warm out and do super light coats.
would the weather effect any of the painting process? gets cold here in Ontario
Yes, Paints and clear coats have a temp range. I have a heck of a time here in NY. Its 10 degrees out right now and I have no place to paint.
Little late to the party here, but does anyone have any good replacements for the paints used here? - can't find em in the UK lol
Sorry, its not something I've researched, but there should be something close. I wish I could get the spray putty you have there.
