Always loved your builds. Your RVB Spartans are what got me in to building replicas to begin with. I'm proud to say this is my first purchase from anyone here. Thanks for sharing the process!

Very interested, this looks stellar. Please PM me details.

or Riker from TNG

It's actually based on the Tom Cruise movie, and not the game (same name, but sci-fi, and fantasy respectively). I agree that the cupboard escutcheon is a very nice touch.

I cant find any files, but you could use others and modify them. The helm could be a modified halo MK IV The torso could be from a Halo 4 EVA chest, with a Halo Reach UA bracer upscaled. The lower legs could be based on an Iron Man suit too. Mind that none of these are perfect, but they...

From my experience, you can not get a reliable bend with any casing material that can not be hammered. I would recommend either molding a ring out of resin to the desired dimensions, and then cut out what is needed; Saws files and rotary tools can work wonders...Or, you could make the crown out...

How about Gordon Freeman from Half Life, Hanzo from Overwatch, Hawke from DragonAge, or Daryl from The Walking Dead. For my money though... try Mirror Spock! (I have similar problems with a Vandyke. One character that has worked for me, and may work if you are willing to separate the moustache...

this is coming great! I know how it feels running late. I was going to rebuild my Halo MKVI suit for the same con, but couldn't finish. looking foreword to seeing it next year!

This is coming along very well. you really have nailed the symmetry, which is very difficult in a scratch build, BRAVO! I don't know if it'll help, but I have the lithograph, and Her position is slightly different from the others. from what I see, no more is visible, but if you need I can supply...

Re: Naked Snake/ Big Boss MGS 3 and Solid Snake MGS 1 simultaneous build (WIP) This is turning out pretty great! This is by far the best headband I have seen for snake, the eyebrow ridges really make it. Just an idea, if you were to take wires and run them through the tails of the headbands, it...

In the god awful movie a few years back, they used the original suit as an extra/Easter egg. I believe its in the DMV-esque line scene. You might want to check YouTube, or some other video website, as if I remember correctly there are some very clear back shots. I have the original series on...

Welcome to the RPF! Looks good so far! The tiny detail scratches really add to the depth, and the green is killer! With regards to painting rust, in my experience, a thinly brushed purple prior to rust red and orange really helps with depth. Of note, as the ranger gear is pre-war riot armor, you...

I know, right! It's mainly used at university in Dallas though, which last year was saturated...at least it looks cool! haha! Sounds like a solid plan on the coat, using a pattern will probably work well. I would recommend oiling it though, as the in game model appears to have had this done to...

SKS's build http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=219592 Duster http://www.outbacktrading.com/low-rider-duster-2042-blk-sm (can be found elsewhere cheaper)

Welcome to the RPF! Digging the idea. I'm on the hunt for a hat too, as I'm making minuteman T-45. POTC sounds great thanks. For the coat, I would try a black Outback brand duster. You'll have to remove the shoulder cape, and likely him the bottom, but it's a great base. about 4 years ago I...
