[Contest Time] Win 1 of 3 Bambu X1C 3D Printers! A new grim contest starts TODAY!

I did clarify from the beginning that collages were allowed

Aaron Hughes

I’ve seen some of what people have submitted for the contest, and I think you should have clarified what’s acceptable for picture entry. A SINGLE picture is just that, a SINGLE picture. A collage of pictures in one “frame” is not a SINGLE picture. Just saying…

Alex

You can paint it whatever color you like

Aaron Hughes

1 photo per helmet or one photo for all the helmets? (all in one picture)

Lui

ok yea only need to change the front grill and add wings

Lui

To what extent are modifications are allowed?

Lui

Yes, as long as a majority of the helmet is from the approved list

Aaron Hughes

Lui

Just wanted to bump this because it seems the community might agree based on the “likes”. Any consideration for the suggestions about the entry details?

Alex Falgione

Yes

Aaron Hughes

Is the reiver helmet allowed in the contest as that's what i have printed

Richard Lee

I do have one question that may have been asked before. Are we able to paint whatever color we want, or do it have to match the paint scheme chosen? I assume we can, but figure I ask to be certain.

Will Maloy

Most my Bulwark helmet is almost printed. So excited for this, and to see other members handiwork. Good luck everyone! 🫡

Will Maloy

Seems like everyone is doing chaplain, know nothing of warharmer but thd designs are cool, so i along with so many others will most likely be one of many GR style chaplains

Irish Justin

Can we limit each patron to one helmet? Multiple helmets per patron coukd lead to non members submitting or friends helping each other win a prize without paying like we all do.

Irish Justin

If we set the print scale to 90% but alter one axis to a lets say 120% is that ok?

Jive Turkey

Can I enter two helmets to the contest ? Or just the one ?

Alex

Question about the contest. My idea was to print one of the helmets and nurglify it. I would not use any other creator's files; I would most likely use sculpting clay. Would that be acceptable or against the contest rules?

Sean c Turner

Enter anyways and after you win, withdraw your name. They can always just give the prize to the runner up.

Andrew Alexander

This is my first competition and I'm so exited! However I'm in high school so I don't have too much time to work on it but I'll do my best. I'm currently working on the Chaplain Helmet which is looking pretty good so far. Wishing everyone luck! FOR THE EMPEROR!

Edwin Brink

Can we customize with parts we make ourselves? Would love to use the Primaris as a base for a night lord build!

Kieron

Just joined for the space marine helmets and saw this! Rocking a Neptune 4 pro but ill be trying to crank one out in time. Awesome offering!

Austin Coppedge

Yes

Aaron Hughes

Kane

Can I suggest instead of only one picture submission we actually require three photos? 1 front, 1 45 degree angle and 1 rear photo? I feel like this would give us all a better idea of the quality and detail of the paint job as well as insuring that the helmets are complete and not that anyone would do it, but it also helps to make sure a lot of digital/post production editing isn’t taking place. Also, I’d just like to be able to show more of my contest entry. Thoughts?

Alex Falgione

I would give yourself 2 1kg spools to account for failed prints

CASE

Yessir! Thank you for responding

Drew Rodgers

Let's not include files from other creators please

Aaron Hughes

This is going to be an awesome challenge! I can't wait to see everyone's hard work from making these already glorious helms into legendary wargear! When it comes to adding accessories to our helmets, are we allowed to use attachments that are from other STL creators as long as we give credit and are using Galactic Armory's base helmets? Or are we only allowed to use attachments that are made from Galactic Armory/ in Space Marine 2? Any clarification would be greatly appreciated! FOR THE EMPEROR!

Drew Rodgers

I don't believe so

Aaron Hughes

I'm not sure if you answered this elsewhere already but does the Bulwark dome (without the bottom attached) work with the Secundus face plate and back pieces?

Coy Johanning

Hell yes! Just printed the ODST helmet in 2 pieces but might have to first do this then! Super fun

Jojojoppie

I'll see what I can do!

Aaron Hughes

I will be giving this a miss. It won't be fair to others as I am a qualified Prop Maker and I have handmade helmets in 2 Games Workshop stores.

Keith Brown

I've started printing the Chaplain helmet at 90% but would love it if there was an face option that was untextured yet still with rivets and panel line details. Would that be possible you think? Cheers

ALEX Rimmington

so we can enter more then once ????

Chris Bingham

With all the great work that was put into the Helldiver contest I know this will be a solid challenge. Looking forward to measuring my talents against this creative community. Cheers all!

Lonnie Dunkin

500gram minimum

Creative Lifestyles Studio

Yes you can as long as it's still recognizable

Aaron Hughes

Yes

Aaron Hughes

Just to make sure, the assault helmet is the primaris one?

Max Bukovsky

How much filament will I need on average to print one of these?

Jon Bowers

might have a crack at this, even if i am yet to delv into the warhammer universe (keen try to try the game). In terms of modifying helmet, can we add clay ontop of it? or just accessories? would mean slightly modifying the design a bit just want to be sure.

EmmiTheGeek

what is the reccomended settings for example like the infill ect

NIGHTSLASH599

I've started printing the chaplain helmet at 90% but would love it if there was an option that was untextured and with rivets and panel line details. Would that be possible you think?

ALEX Rimmington

Ow Man, I am sure you'll be able to visit soon, I am in Guadalajara, capital of Tequila and Mariachi 😉

El_Pandalorian

You are not alone

Nick Smith

🤣

Nick Smith

🤣 me too but less fails than printing 1 inch commando droids

Nick Smith

Hi from the UK, say hi to my cousin and uncle if you pass by Merida. I dream of accepting their invite to my daughter and I but at £2k per return flight each it stays a dream.

Nick Smith

I feel like I don't know so much about this universe other than Helsreech but I will definitely enter something. Maybe the four times it took to print the last part of the current helmet. Three fails on the face grill before I realised that the temperature has dropped so finally the lightbulb moment and this genius raised the bed temperature by ten degrees and bingo. 24hrs it took 🤷🤦😂 What a spanner!

Nick Smith

Challenge expected!! Good luck everyone 🤩

Phillip Parker

Wowzers!

SuperSaltLee

Thank you sir!

El_Pandalorian

You can do multiple helmets but only 1 photo

Aaron Hughes

Multiple helmets are allowed but only 1 photo

Aaron Hughes

Yes but just 1 photo

Aaron Hughes

Are we allowed to submit more than 1 helmet?

Taco Studios

I usually never participate because I have a very bad luck, but hey! I just finished printing the Bulwark helmet and I am going for the Chaplain! Question though, is the picture only for 1 helmet or can I include both? Greetings from Mexico! - For the emperor!!

El_Pandalorian

Can we submit more than one helmet ?

Compendium Ordo Cosplay

Any chance that the sniper's headgear is coming even if its not part of the contest?

Unreal Soldier

As long as it's still recognizable you'll be fine!

Aaron Hughes

Ben

For the Emperor!! …But mainly for me cuz I want to win! Edit : too bad we can’t do the Galactic Armory 40k helmet too!

Robert Noon

Hope I can get mine done in time. I’m printing mine on an ender 3 so have to print all the parts separately and having a lot of fails lol

Johnpaul

Awesome just in time for Christmas

Mark Morgan

These are just the X1, not the combo

Aaron Hughes

Awesome stuff! Will give it a go. Are these With an AMS?

ALEX Rimmington

Global

Aaron Hughes

That's the "Vanguard" I believe but yes it's included, might have got my classes mixed around

Aaron Hughes

No reiver?

Joshua Martin

Good luck folks 🫡

Augustin Mazet

The Disappointed Dad
