About this 3D model
THIS IS A DEMO VERSION, YOU CAN FIND THE FULL VERSION AT aguilarworkshop.com/product-page/grenadier-helmet OR READ MORE ABOUT IT HERE aguilarworkshop.com/post/grenadier-helmet Major Features*The following description was pulled from the full Grenadier post on my website which features dozens of pictures and recounts my own build process and more clearly shows off all the features for this helmet, it can be found at https://www.aguilarworkshop.com/post/grenadier-helmet Unique, Easy-To-Assemble Design.This helmet was designed to fit together like a 3D puzzle. This model was originally comprised of 40+ pieces, but now accomodates over 80! (Parts that can be mirrored are included as singular models w/ instructions to reduce file size). All of the large major pieces are designed to snugly fit together utilizing aligment pegs that allow for the helmet to be securely assembled/dissembled without the need for screws/glue. Some of the smaller accent pieces require glue to place in their slots, but outside of that, this helmet is printable in such a way that a vast majority of the pieces do not require glue to assemble, this ensures that there are no ugly seams to hide/sand away. Below you can see two pictures, both show how the helmet slides together one piece into another. The first picture show how all the "central" pieces slide together from the front. The second photo shows that all the "side" pieces slide in from the sides and lock all the rest of the "central" pieces in place. The optimal order to assemble the helmet can be found in the video at the beginning of this post. Helmet CustomizationThis model features the most customization of any of my helmets. The model features 4 separate attachments that can added and removed at will. All attachments as well as their attachment features in the main helmet can be mirrored to be attachable to either side of the helmet. Additionally, there has been a massive functionality update that includes ventilation systems, lighting systems, and speaker systems. UAThe helmet comes with a stock version of the overhead visor and one that accommodates the UA attachment. There are additional versions that accommodate overhead fans for cooling/venting, but I will talk about that in a later section. The overhead visor is able to swapped out on the fly as it slides in from the side and is locked into place by two, printable, hex-key compatible screws. HULThe HUL attachment comes in an easy-to-print 2 part assembly. The front plate and back body are printed separately and attached via 4 small alignment pegs. This allows for printing both pieces without supports. HUL[3]While the HUL[3] attachment is not available for the Grenadier helmet in-game, I thought that there was no need to limit this model (plus I had recently modeled it for my Commando Helmet which you should absolutely check out). The attachment features a multi-part, sleeved design that locks together using insert-able antennas in the back. CNMThe CNM attachment also features a multi-part, glueless design that only requires a small drop of glue to attach side button. Functionality UpdateI've never included space specifically dedicated to internal electronics and would supply them on a case by case basis when requested. That all changed this past week when I decided that with all the many features I have added to the Grenadier for private requests, it was time to release an updated version of the helmet. Removable Chip Insert It was brought to my attention that the Reach version of the helmet does not feature the AI chip insertion feature like the Halo 5 version does. I included two seperate versions of the large main cap and the top of the neck to allow others to make a choice as to what version of the helmet they want. Ventilation SystemThe newest feature, and the one I am most excited about, is the added ventilation system. The side plates and cheek plates now feature a square slot to fit hobby duct fans. This slot is connect via duct to the front of the helmet, where there are several options for small printable vent covers. The slot is a 52 mm square, so it should be able to fit 50mmx50mmx15mm duct fans with ease. Here are some pics of the two printable vent covers. Additionally ventilation was added to the top of the helmet and is only usable with the UA attachment. The slot is a 42mm square and should plenty of room to attach a 40mm hobby fan. Forward Lighting AccommodationDirectly underneath the side duct ventilation is a separate channel and casing to accommodate various lighting fixtures of your choosing Integrated Sound SystemEach ear piece comes with a circular hole to easily insert 40mm hobby speakers. The hole is 42mm wide and features a large bottom square feature to allow for wires to easily pass through. Visor Insert FeaturesThe inside of the helmet features Guides to hold the visor in place. While the visor can sit on these alone I would recommend a low strength glue or tape to help fasten hit while still
