Honorable Mentions: 5kgs of Polymaker PLA of your color choice.
- Social Media Prize: Most likes/hearts on a social media post - submit to same email as above
- Aaron and Jamie's Picks: Our personal favorites!
Judging Criteria:
How else do you win a Helldiver helmet contest other than DEMOCRATICALLY! On April 26th I will post a link to vote on all helmet submissions. Voting will be open over the weekend up until April 30th at 9AM CST. You will be able to vote on as many submissions as you like! Emails will be collected at the time of voting. IF YOUR SUPPLIED EMAIL DOES NOT MATCH AN ACTIVE PATREON ACCOUNT, IT WILL NOT BE COUNTED!
Important Dates:
Contest Launch: TODAY!
Submission Deadline: Friday, April 26th at 9AM CST
Winner Announcement: Tuesday, April 30th at 9:30AM CST
Additional Details:
Photo touch-ups are allowed but please no photoshopping the helmet directly. Changing backgrounds/lighting is allowed. If overly edited, clarifying photos may be requested.
If you have previously won a Bambu X1 Carbon printer from one of our past contests, you will not be eligible to win a prize higher than 2nd place.
If you are in need of visors for the helmets we do offer them in our shop but it is not necessary for entry.
Both canon and custom helmets are allowed for submission.
Feel free to add accessories to your helmet to make it unique but the helmet should include the typical Helldiver Dome, Back, and Faceplate.
As always I'm so excited to see the creativity and skill showcased in this community! Please let me know if you have any questions in the comments!

2024-04-22 12:58:50 +0000 UTCMy Helmet is printed, partially sanded and assembled, waiting for some petg sheets and dye to come in the mail. Then I get to figure out how to make a vacuum former and learn how to make a visor
Cal Brown
2024-04-21 05:55:16 +0000 UTCJust one, but multiple helmets can be included in a single entry
Aaron Hughes
2024-03-21 18:02:00 +0000 UTCCan I have more than one entry per email address? I'm almost finished printing my second Tactical, and was wanting to print a Champion next. Must I decide on which is my best, or can I leave it to the people to decide?
Big D
2024-03-21 16:58:20 +0000 UTCnever tried a contest before but i'm super exited for this one!!
Warsys9
2024-03-20 00:33:27 +0000 UTCYes they can be, however you must include one of the 3 main helmets as the centerpiece
Aaron Hughes
2024-03-11 22:08:35 +0000 UTCOh ive noticed that for the later helmets are not counted for the contest, can they still be included? i understand if it does not count to the overall grade of the image
DragonFruit
2024-03-11 21:41:01 +0000 UTCIf it's between the 3 models it should be okay. If you want to dm me about it I can double check
Aaron Hughes
2024-03-05 22:49:24 +0000 UTCis it against the rules to mix n match parts from the models? Id really like to do a combo of two of the helmets, if that's okay, it'd still be base helmet files, id just swap one faceplate for another.
Zander Laird
2024-03-05 22:44:41 +0000 UTCif you want to buy a finished one, GA's website has them
Jackson S.
2024-03-04 21:05:33 +0000 UTCCan anyone help with the visors for me?
darklorrd
2024-03-03 00:18:55 +0000 UTCJust bought the helmet, gonna have to put my spartan armor on hold. Side question, are you going to add the recon scout helmet with the poitier mouth guard? That ones my favorite
DandersonJA
2024-03-01 03:05:39 +0000 UTCI need a PLA printer desperately π
M4X TV
2024-02-29 23:43:34 +0000 UTCcan u add stuff to the helmets like horns and range finders
Cody Evans
2024-02-29 20:14:59 +0000 UTCIf you are a paid member, yes you can. It would be cheaper to go Specialist than buy the files individually though
Aaron Hughes
2024-02-29 14:11:51 +0000 UTCJust 1 submission per patron but the 1 submission can have multiple helmets in it
Aaron Hughes
2024-02-29 14:11:18 +0000 UTCCollages are okay
Aaron Hughes
2024-02-29 14:10:51 +0000 UTCIll have a go at this, not made a helmet for a while
Zedwoo
2024-02-29 13:31:12 +0000 UTCI'm excited. I've done some cosplay before but never a helmet, looks fun!
Tom Turney
2024-02-29 13:15:28 +0000 UTCIf we are not in the Specialist member level can we compete? If so how do we buy the files?
Recon Skimmer
2024-02-29 13:11:45 +0000 UTCnever played the game or won a contest, and only have a few days before i have to leave for work (for weeks) but ima give it a try!
t-rav
2024-02-29 05:00:08 +0000 UTCIs it possible to make multiple submissions to these? I have alot of designs coming along the way and I wish to showcase them all!
Isaac Palacin
2024-02-29 03:56:45 +0000 UTCwould you guys be able to provide a slicing profile for Cr-10s that you use? I see one in the patreon folder but im unable to load it or open it
Tanner Govin
2024-02-28 22:10:59 +0000 UTCMy Default one just finished printing I'ma have to print another one now cause I'ma do a custom paint job on one of em
RealUncleG
2024-02-28 22:10:41 +0000 UTCI was just talking to a friend about what Iβd do for the next contestβ¦and this is weirdly on point with my idea! Iβll get started this weekend!!
Robert Noon
2024-02-28 22:10:20 +0000 UTCHope to improve on my first one. I do have a question for clarification: the rules state that we should take one photo. Being my first time in the last contest, I took that to mean literally one photo, not a collage. I am assuming collages are acceptable again this time?
Jonathan Zimmers
2024-02-28 22:08:21 +0000 UTCIβm finally gonna do it, Iβm gonna enter the contest Iβm already almost done printing the helmet!

Aaron Hughes
2024-02-28 20:49:33 +0000 UTCSo exciting! My first contest where I have a printer. Are you still going to be selling lenses? Theres no way I can make my own in my situation π
Chris Rico
2024-02-28 20:47:49 +0000 UTCIt doesn't need to be full sized
Aaron Hughes
2024-02-28 20:46:58 +0000 UTCI just started printing one! And then a thunderstorm started and my power flickered!
Trammell Byce
2024-02-28 20:44:57 +0000 UTCCan it be a smaller scale or does it have to be full size?
PatKnez
2024-02-28 20:44:42 +0000 UTCAs long as it's one of the 3 mentioned
