One of the key features is the ability of the base of the helmet to "cascade" up inside the helmet, allowing the wearer to place the helmet on their head with ease. In his first video below Ryan demonstrated the mechanism. It took him about 100 hours to develop and fine-tune, but it incorporates all of the functionality he sought to include. Ryan introduced his first 3D printed Mark III Iron Man helmet in July. Using a Stratasys Fortus M360 3D printer from a 3D print lab at the local university, Ryan 3D printed all the parts of the helmet in plastics. He started with making MkIII Iron Man Helmet. Ryan wants to make something functional, authentic, and with light on.
He started researching online and found some others that had made different kinds of Iron Man costumes. Inspired by the first Iron Man movie, this year Ryan wanted to make his own Mark III Iron Man suit. The Discovery Channel's Daily Planet featured him, and he also made the front page of the Kitchener-Waterloo Record in 2011, and won "Best in Show" with the debut of this costume at ComicCon 2011 in Toronto. His first attempt was the briefcase suit from Iron Man 2, which is able to transform from a slightly large briefcase into the fully detailed and fully functional suit of armour. In 2011, Ryan Brooks's passion for all-things Iron Man inspired him to teach himself programming, electronics, 3D modelling and mechanical design, with the intent of bringing the onscreen armor to life.
