Some have you may have seen the new Iron Man film in the cinema, it was a great film and it wouldn’t be possible without Legacy Effects, the production team for the Iron Man 2 film.
One of the things I didn’t know until today is that Legacy Effects used an Objet Geometries 3D printer to create some of the parts of the physical Iron Man suit. The Iron man Gloves are one of the parts printed using the Objet printer. All parts that were made were perfectly adapted to the actors that had to wear them after the actors’ bodies were scanned for the perfect fit.
Legacy Effects bought the 3D printer for $114,000 after having used one when creating the suit from the xbox 360s’ halo ad. campaign.
