Now we see that Metabee is very large compared to Rokusho and certainly not centered with: first we must make smaller Metabee checking that isn't deformed, so we select itand press S to resize. Also check that the display is always in Ortho. IMPORTANT: To preserve the Medarot in proportions, for any resizing or moving process,we must always select Metabee (RED with the reference part in ORANGE, I always use the legs as reference). Then open a new Blender window and with the same process open the Medarot_Life_Size_Sample_by_Ajaxdima file. We select all the Metabee parts with the mouse (see Blender Miniguide) and do Control + C to copy. Open Blender and click File > Open and click twice on our file (metabee.obj). We take the model downloaded and extract from it to a folder (eg Desktop) the file, eg Metabee.blend. Another tip is to use ONLY MODELS EXTRACTED from videogames, because the models created or modified by users obviously haven't the right proportions and will never have the exact form of Medarot.įor clarity I'll take as example the Metabee file to well describe all steps.

zip package of the 3D model, there are already the Pepakura files. obj just look that importing them into Pepakura Designer, the colors don't be lost. obj or Blender (.blend) then be exported in. If you don't find the Medarot you want, look it up Google.

You found many 3D renders in Download LINKS below. If you have never used Blender, don't worry, all the most useful commands are in Miniguide following.įind the 3D model of your favorite Medarotīefore start we need the 3D file of the Medarot we want.
The model is already set with the workspace more usable for our purpose. The Medarot_Life_Size_Sample_by_Ajaxdima is a 3D model of altered Rokusho that we will use as a comparison sample (from this model will get the measurements of the Medarot that we want to build). Medarot_Life_Size_Sample_by_Ajaxdima from the Download LINKS below. Once settled the two softwares, we proceed to download the file that I have prepared for you:

zip version (portable) that requires no installation, I use that for convenience (Blender is a great software and runs well even on older Pcs).įor more information of installation and KEY, FOUND IN THE WEB, you understand?

Hello Medafighters! In this Guide I explain you how to make measurements in life-size of your favorite Medarot, then apply them to the 3D model and can print and assemble it as papercraft!įirst we need to download the 2 software that will use: Pepakura Designer 3 ( a bit useless without a Key code, serial key) and Blender (free) downloadable from their official sites:īlender also exists in. Referee declares the Robattle illegal! XD
If your Medarot comes out too big or too small, it isn't my fault if Mr. The content shown (eg dimensions) are not official but only from the approximate measurements of the action figures. All names / trademarks are the property of their respective manufacturers. The guide is only and for recreational purposes. If you follow the fold lines, the model should form itself as you progress.The forum and myself do not assume any responsibility for the use of the guide.
If at any point you become confused, you can always refer to the PDO file of the model which shows how each piece should be folded in 3D space, where the pieces should be connected, and all of the fold lines. In the case of papercrafting, a thin layer of glue applied with a toothpick is best. The white tabs on the edges of pieces are where glue needs to be applied to connect the pieces. Also, using the ruler as a guide when scoring can be helpful. However, it is possible to use an old, empty ballpoint pen, but I recommend the knife method. This can be done by slightly running the blade of the X-Acto knife along the fold line. If you’re not familiar with scoring, it simply means to scratch the surface of the paper to ensure a sharp edge on a fold. Once you have a piece cut out, you’ll want to score the folding lines. A dotted line (- – -) indicates a mountain fold, which means fold the paper down, and a dotted-dashed line (- -) indicates a valley fold, which means fold the paper up. To know where to score and fold the lineless model we will open the lined version PDO file in Pepakura Viewer. The downloaded ZIP folder contains a lineless and a lined version of the model as PNG files.
