I have seen the decoration and painting process that transforms 'Naniwa Mjolnir' into a figure that emits light from the inside.

O.H.INDUS , which boasts the No. 1 share of industrial hammers in Japan, ' Naniwa Mjolnir ' is a company in Higashi-Osaka that specializes in the production of resin and light metal design models in order to give it a more Mjolnir -like appearance. Decorated and painted by Monac 's Product Model Division.

A movie that captures the deliciousness of the work is like this.

Using 3D scanning printer, vacuum pressure casting, machining, and decorative painting technology, we are good at producing design models of resins and light metals that meet a wide variety of functions and needs, from development / planning prototypes to mass-produced products. Taisei Monac that there is.



There are two 'Naniwa Mjolnirs' at the scene. The left is after work and the right is before work. There is a difference whether the handle is covered or not, but you can see that the texture of the head is quite different. The materials are the same.

First, make a transparent sheet like this ...



It is said that the pattern was drafted according to the four sides of the hammer.



After putting in a draft, the rest is just carving.



It is easy to scrape if it is made of resin, but it seems that the work was difficult because the forged metal like this time can only be scraped little by little. According to Mr. Matsumi who worked, although it looks like a crack, it is not really cracked, so I adjusted the strength well and finished it so that it was not unnatural.



When the carving is finished ...



I will paint. The pattern on this corner is difficult to carve by hand, so I entered the design and carved it by machine. However, each hammer head has a slightly different shape and surface angle, so even if it has the same design, it cannot be processed by assembly line as it is, and fine adjustments are made for each surface. As for the painting, the shades are added where the color is applied only once and where it is applied multiple times.



Fluorescent powder and phosphorescent powder are mixed in the blue paint.



A fairly bright blue will be painted.



'Naniwa Mjolnir' after painting the pattern. According to Mr. Matsumi, the point to be careful about is to balance so as not to lose while there is already 'real power'. If you apply all of them, it will look like a toy, but it seems that you had a hard time trying to get as close as possible to the original Mjolnir.



It is said that the pattern part of the corner includes 'OH' of OH Industrial, 'TM' of Taisei Monac, and the city emblem of the local city of Higashi-Osaka.



Thanks to the fluorescent powder and phosphorescent powder, it glows blue when viewed after being exposed to strong light.



After this, shine a lot of sunlight on 'Naniwa Mjolnir' ...



When I carried it to a dark room, I saw a divine figure that gave off a clear light.

After this, 'Naniwa Mjolnir' will be exhibited in the MARVEL POP UP STORE on the 1st floor of HEP FIVE from July 1st (Friday) to July 31st (Sunday), 2022.
