Kato 3D head and mask WIP

[rsaffle]

I've been 3D printing for a few years now but most of my designs have been mechanical shapes and the organic shapes have been eluding me until now. I have been practicing in a sculpting program called Nomad sculpt on my IPad and I'm starting to get a hang of it.

This is my 1st attempt at making a Kato mask. I found a Bruce Lee head model that I removed the hair and ears and reworked a little, then used that to make my mask. I hope to print the head and removable mask in Mego or 1/6 sized and also a full size mask. The program only cost 15$! I have already used it for several other projects in progress too.

New doors are opening and more fun ahead. Btw, I'm buying a new printer soon and hope to be able to start making some of these things for selling.

Looking forward to see what more you will create, Randy.

That is awesome. The size should be spot on since it fits the Bruce Lee bust. I have a couple of Kato masks I've purchased, neither of which are probably accurate. I'd be interested if you make them available.

Very cool! I know the first things you did with the program looked promising but the more you get the feel of it, the better! Kato mask looks awesome!

It would be great to see a proper 1:6 scale Kato, instead of the oversized Enterbay figure. That, and a Kato that actually bears some resemblance to 1966-67 Bruce Lee.
