Also remember that both of these scaling methods are not perfect. It sometimes will take 2-3 tries to get the piece peped to your liking. Now, just a warning, this scaling method is NOT always the best to use. From there, all of the other numbers should snap into proportion: From there, click on "Specify Scale", and input the number. Do this by opening your Pepakura Desinger of choice, clicking on "2D Pattern Window", then going down the list to "Change the Scale of Development". For this step, take the number you just got (for me, 39.2cm or 392mm) and input it into the scaling table. Now for the second step-Type in the numbers. If you are making another piece, look at your reference picture(s) to find the basic where abouts of where the piece lies, and how bit it should be on the body. For me, the width (Arm-pit to arm-pit) was 39.2cm. For this specific piece, have your partner measure from one of your arm-pits to your other arm-pit and add 2cm-5cm for padding, and fiberglass. For example, I will be using Flyingsquirls MK.VI Torso. Now, have them measure the height, width or depth of the area of your body that will have the armour piece you are scaling on. For this grab your friend or second person, and hand them the measuring tape. Well, there’s no better place to start then the First step- Measure up. Now, there are 3 easy steps to scaling your armor using this method. You will need:ģ-A Measuring Tape (Preferably a body measuring tape) In a few moments, I will explain each step in detail, but first off, let’s talk materials.

There are 5 easy steps to sucessful armour scaling: Each rating category means:ĭifficulty-The difficulty of the Method (the lower the number, the easier it is).Īccuracy-The accuracy level of the Method (the higher the number, the more accurate it is).Ĭompatability-The ammount of use the Method has (the higher the number, the more compatable it is).

If you believe this tutorial was stollen, feel free to PM me on the boards at the 405th, or contact me by any way you wish. I am a member of the 405th Forums (the origin of this Tutorial was from the 405th). I am the original creator of this tutorial. I am also experianced with Pepakura, and wish to make some Clone armour using a mix of Pepakura, and scratch building.Īnyway, enough about me, onto the tutorial. I don't think i am as good as some of you members here, but I hope to be one day. I am a wiz with Cardboard weapons and armour, and am very good at scratch building. Now, here I am 4 years later, ready to get a jump start on Star Wars prop and costuming again. Shortly after I abandoned it, and later went to Halo costuming. I started costuming when I was 11 when I began to make props from Star Wars. I really enjoy the Star Wars saga, and most of the cartoon movies that have been coming out reciently. Ever since I was a child, I grew up with the awesome glow of my television with the Star Wars movies playing on it nearly 24/7.
