Re: Ninja turtle suit, working mouth
pm sent.
hey harley, the glue i use to join the foam is a contact adhesive, you know the type you spread on both surfaces then wait till they dry a bit then join together. I'm using mainly ADOS F2. you can speed up the process by using a hair dryer. I made a cardboard mockup of the helmet then copied the measurements and shapes by bending the aluminum around some PVC plumbing tubes. good luck with yours. |

Re: Ninja turtle suit, working mouth
This is simply the best fan-made Ninja Turtle suit I have ever seen. Huge appreciation for posting the info and pics... I am very grateful! I can't say enough how great this is and to see that it was done in such a non-traditional casting/molding way is just awesome! WOW! Any chance you have more pics or info on how the torso/chest/arms were made and how the shell is supported/attached? Stunning and mind-blowing!

Re: Ninja turtle suit, working mouth
Very impressive work! I work with foam all the time and I've done exactly what you did, but man does it look so much better. I actually had to rebuild a turtle head from one of the stunt suits of the second movie? They just came to me for a music video and needed it that afternoon. I wish I had you around, you would have shown me a thing or two on that mess.
Do you pattern, or free form? it looks like you free form, I was actually taught how to pattern muscles from one of the good friends of the Chido bros, who did some of the actual suits. Man I need to do more organic work, it looks fun. I was actually going to do an Alien suit this way, just got scared by the weight of the latex, I brushed 4 layers on and it weighed a ton on my test hand. How many layers did you use on this suit. Oh and, you know you can use L-200 to base out shapes first, then cover them in the upholstery foam for detail, it helps on large things like the shell, instead of having to build up layer after layer. lighter too. Again great work, I can't wait to see what you're doing next.
