I think you did an awesome job!!  I used to think about the plating option, but it's just too expensive for me. Also, aerosol metallics have dramatically improved over the years, and are a much more suitable option.  Also, the Hero Predator 2 helmets were gold plated. Look to the middle-right...

Taken from my Facebook wall - Caution, I use dirty words -  I'll tell you what's on my mind, Facebook, and I will make you eat it... eat it all. I'm gonna shove it down your throat like a huge, barbed bear cock. So, my Feed has been filled up with news about a Predator 'reboot.' What do I...

You can take this 3-D ******** and shove it right up your ass.  Speaking as someone who can only see through ONE eye, I never needed any of this **** to know that Predator is one of my favorite films. Back when I had TWO eyes to see with, the VHS version of PREDATOR was amazing.  Blu-Ray is...

I heard, long ago, that SWS found the Hero P2 helmet in a box somewhere. So it wasn't actually stolen. I don't know if there's any truth to that, but you never know.  Also, with SideShows' pull, you think they could've at least gotten some reference material from SWS/Legacy Effects.  I'll be...

Sounds like its been re-sculpted to the size of a stunt helmet. So... it's not 1:1 scale. The Hero-Helmet should be  HUGE. There's some behind-the-scenes footage of an FX artist putting the helmet on the headpiece in the slaughter house, and it isn't small.  The helmet looks good... but only...

I've been curious about this helmet as well. Something seems "off" about the scale when compared to the apple. I think it may just be a re-sculpt; like Matt Rose re-sculpting the P1 Bio-Helmet.  I also thought the helmet was more angular than the stunt version. Though, I think I'm just being to...

That was really cool seeing the Predators' battle. I would've shown up earlier to the convention if I'd known you guys would be there. What pisses me off is, that there's really only snippets of Predator costumes. There's one shot I remember of a Predator just walking in front of the camera. ...

I decided to watch this show, "Heroes of Cosplay" after I saw my Facebook feed explode with negativity. I thought, "you know, what could be so bad?" Well, a lot... apparently.  One thing that I noticed, was the complete LACK of any male Cosplayers. I guess they're just not as much of ratings...

I'm looking forward to the new season of Face/Off.  I some how got my Mom hooked on the show, and now it's been a weekly thing where we watch it together. She really likes the show. 

You know what; and on a side-note, FOX has access to hundreds of archival pictures of the Predator, and various props... right?  Why the balls do they keep using pictures of that ******* toy as promotional and packaging art?  Oh, and as far as the whole "3-D" thing goes, you can just shove all...

Those look phenominal! Gary, you sir, are quite the craftsman.  :D I would have to say, that you've definitely raised the bar once again with your work. 

Welp, here we go again. Time for Rob to put himself back into debt - because you know those pieces WILL NOT be cheap. That maquette looks great; and I'm glad to see them giving us more Predator 2 stuff.  I'm really curious about the origins of the helmet. Clearly, it's not a stunt, but looks...

A 3-D Blu Ray release of PREDATOR? Oh.. Whoopdy ****.  :rolleyes:

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!!! This is just so pretty!!!!  This is all coming along so nicely!! Totally inspirational work, Lee. These are the kinds of threads that I love to read through.  Definitely lit a fire up under my ass, that's for sure.  :D

I always love to see your work, Lee!  I especially appreciate your documentation of your process. It's very, very cool to see the build up of layers, and how it all comes together in the end as the finished piece. I can totally see the development of your skills with each mask you paint, too...
