DREDD Helmet Build – 3D Print, Paint & Weathering Tutorial

Dredd Helmet

PLAY VIDEO

I finally built one of the helmets I’ve wanted to tackle for a long time — **DREDD**.

Dredd is easily one of my favorite comic book movies, and in this video I take you through the entire process of turning a 3D print into a finished, battle-worn Dredd helmet.

I’ll show you how I:

• 3D printed the helmet
• Prepped and cleaned up the print
• Painted the entire helmet
• Added the metallic finishes and details
• Weathered it to give it that worn, gritty Dredd look

If you want to build your own, the **Dredd helmet STL file is available now on my website**.
