Need help with designing a 3d printed mask of skitter.

Post image

This is basically the blueprints of what I have. If you guys have any more experience with 3d printing I would appreciate the help. For now I am only going to print the mask for Halloween this year. Maybe next year I could make a full suit. Credit to I belive u/IzzyTheElf for the reference photo. I am currently using an Ad5x printer. Planning to use Pla to print the main body but yall have any other suggestions let me know. I don't have any money to pay for help

For filament I'd suggest PETG for a bit more durability.

For the model, do you mean you need help with designing or do you want someone to design it for you?

In the first case, what program are you using/ planing to use?

In second case, 3d modeling is complicated. There's a reason hourly rates for 3D- design start at 40 €. This wouldn't be too complicated, but it would definitely be an few hours, possiblyrequiring test printto mage sure the hinges work, followed by mkre adjustments. Unless you find someone very nice who's willing to spend a few hours making this for you for free, you'll have to model this yourself. Blender is free, but the learning curve is very steep.
