No red Seth, I promise. And thanks...I won't be moving on this build too quickly and I guarantee like Bane, I will change my mind often. I build some the armor already but it was quite awhile ago and the skills were crappy at best. I am thinking polystyrene over 6mm foam. I want it solid but a...
Re: The Mandolorian Bat aka Bat Fett (Helmet update 4.28.13)
Update: So I finished some basic painting for the helmet. The lines aren't all as clean as I would like but that skill will come as I do more projects. Practice makes perfect, as they say. I think the overall theme is good and you get...
Re: The Mandolorian Bat aka Bat Fett
Update: Did a bit of work over the weekend when I could find the time. So I sanded the helmet again to smooth it out and give the paint something to stick to, I then primed it and went over it with a chrome base coat and then again with a black semi gloss. I...
Re: The Mandolorian Bat aka Bat Fett
Small update: So I took the grid paper ears and made a couple out of polystyrene. They kinda remind me of the fins on old 50's cars. I dig it. I am debating some other mods at the moment but just like my last build, I do the design as I go. Thoughts?
Re: Steampunk Bane (TDKR)/WIP -Armor Done(Updated 2/2/13)
I didn't do a WIP. All of them are pretty much the same so I didn't feel the need. I had Bane out most of the time anyways at this last weekend's con. I will attach some pics to this post.
I don't know how good of an idea it would be but perhaps a leather base covered in cloth? I know there is a instructable about a Gotham by Gaslight cowl that you can maybe mod and get the effect you need.
I couldn't find the exact one I saw but maybe you can follow the concept of the guy in...
So I return with a new project. I just finished my Dredd 3D costume and now I think I will attempt my very first project before finding the RPF and finding techniques to make things easier. I am going to take my sweet time with it because there is no real deadline and Dredd cost me a small...
Re: Steampunk Bane (TDKR)/WIP -Armor Done(Updated 2/2/13)
Thanks man. I appreciate your kind words. Sorry to not get back to you sooner, I was working on my Dredd 3D and was on that thread most of the time. Next is the Mandolorian Bat!!
Glad to hear that it was useful to someone. This is why we have this site and all the awesome members and their techniques. Hope you get good use out of them. :)
Thanks for the kind words all, I thought it looked pretty good for being made so cheap. Sometimes I have issues paying a lot for things I know I could just make.
And if you have the Dave's Leather pouches (AWESOME product), I would do a set of three flashballs. The balls are pretty noisy...
