Mari Makinami Illustrious Cosplay Interface Headset

Big Evangelion fan here, both of the original and the rebuild, and these have been on my list to make for a while despite others existing elsewhere.

Hair Bands

Please choose a hairband from the Cosplay Hairband System (CHS) page to download and print to go with these accessories, where you can find hairbands with mounting points at different angles on the hairband.

This should be printed in blue and be one of the “tapered width” variants, to match the one Mari wears (I didn't use a tapered width variant in the pictures above as this got designed after!).

Printing

It is probably a good idea to use a fine layer height to improve the appearance of the very top of this model. In the above pictures I used a 0.2mm layer height and it definitely would benefit a smaller one.

There is a Bambu Studio painted file for the easy print version available. I used a 0.4 nozzle.

Assembling

The accessories clip on to the hair band. If you look carefully inside the accessory you will see one edge has an angle on it and the other does not - the thinner edge is the one you slide into the clip. 

It should go in and out without breaking pretty easily, but be secure enough to also hold in the accessory without falling out if you are careful.
