I couldn't ever find the version of the Ace Interceptor Helmet with the UEE Advocacy badges on it in-game, so I made one!
I normally work in the film industry and it's in a bit of a slowdown here at the moment, so I needed a project. Created the files in Blender and Zbrush, then printed in pieces on my Bambu Labs X1C. It's printed in PLA, with the pads printed in foamed TPU so they are squishy.
The helmet splits apart at the top with elastic so you can spread it open to get it on your head, as the neck is pretty small. I thought about detaching the back with magnets, but I didn't have any lol
I think total it took me a couple months, the paint is always the hardest part for me because I suck at it and am impatient- it took me a few tries and some touchups but I think it came out pretty good. The LEDs in those lasers on the side light up as well, but they're not bright enough to make out in the daylight.
I recreated the labels in Adobe Illustrator and had them made as waterslide decals. Big shout out and thanks to @Citizen_of_the_verse for getting me some incredible hi-res screenshots of the helmet so I could do the paint and decals.
Of course, the files are not available... sorry!
