Chappie is another great movie by Neill Blomkamp following up his early Tetravaal short. As soon as I watched it, I knew I had to build something from the movie. Going through the ReplicaPropForum threads, I found someone had already designed the files for Chappie’s head, so I had to give them a try.
The Start of the Project
I got the files from RPF member Razmataz and then added and modified some pieces to my liking or to make them more accurate. This was a big project that took me several months and taught me new skills along the way. I had never done electronics before, it was my first time using an airbrush, and my first time building something this complex.
