how the fuck is this even made?

Ever heard of casting?

I know many ways in which this could be made, but I'm not here to speculate. I want the facts.

an artist sculpts it in zbrush
it's broken down into assemblies and 3D printed
everything get's cleaned up, sanded and primed
molds are taken
copies are made in fiberglass or resin or whatever
it get's painted

It is the same fucking method. You make a mold, you cast the pieces, and you fucking assemble them.

The pieces are not one whole fucking unit, you cock gobbler. There were probably at least fifty pieces minimum that were assembled and sanded to get to that point.

Fucking moron.

>>158040392
the fuck is wrong with you OP?

>>158040582
Forgot yo mention: see>>158040536
for the finer details. Most main molds are now done first as a 3-d prototype, then the pieces are disassembled and made into molds.

>>158040054
They pour liquid plastic into a mold then sell it to idiots for 100000000x the value of the materials

>>158040440
means I want to know the specifics on how they chose to do it.

>>158040755
well call them and ask, the fuck are you asking here for

3D model for reference, styrofoam then casted

OP here, thanks anon.

>have to build metal structure inside them so they don't colapse on their own weight
