metal

Hey all, So I'm planning on recreating this helmet, overall the construction shouldn't be too much of an issue as I have the 3d model to reference and I plan on using a large acrylic globe to keep things light. But what I'm concerned about is the large somewhat polished metal surface and...

For me, this has been a long time coming. I have spent years searching for the right track/channel that matches the shape and material of the original pieces used for the U-channel on the ROTJ E-11 prop, but never found anything that fit my standards. After purchasing multiple items, only to be...

Hey everyone, first time posting, long time lurking lol, planning on disassembling and hopefully cleaning up my rots anakin saber, it had been stored in a really damp house for a year and now has small veins of corrosion around the black grips. main query is does anyone know what metal its made...

Howdy everyone! After browsing for the last couple years and never actually posting anything that I put together i'm here with my first build log. Hal 9000 has always been a incredibly intriguing prop to me. The sleek modern design feels timeless, cold, and monolithically imposing. Lengthy...

Hello all, I'm new to the RPF (literally joined today) but i'm obsessed with the prop of the Loki Mask from the 1997 movie "The Mask" starring Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz. I have collected many replicas over the years from the likes of Ebay, Etsy, Reelart and most recently Instagram. The prop...

So I have been asked a few times if I am able to make this replica from the dark comedy 'Death Becomes Her' which is a very difficult prop to duplicate considering it stands on its tip. With the interest shown towards my Omegahedron, Neverending Story Book and Floating Rose, I thought I might...

'' DON'T PUSH THAT BUTTON!!! '' :) Hello people, This is Rocket bomb detonator from Guardians of the galaxy vol.2 used by baby Groot. It's a full metal build prop replica with no electronic. It's only a static prop. It weights roughly 1kg (yeah!) and is about 6 inches long. Since there...

Got one of those metal eBay shields from China and honestly they're pretty nice for the price! They're not flawless by any means though. Below are some things about them that could be improved: - diameter (mine is around 22", although they do have an updated version now that's around the screen...

Just finished casting this in cold cast copper. Going to have other finishes including glow in the dark, metallic cobalt blue, unpainted white polyurethane and anything else I can think to use. It measures 19 inches x 16 inches x 2 inches.

Hi there! I'm a long time lurker on the RPF now, but kinda want to get into the mix myself. Really want to build an all metal NN-14, but I'm having a bit of trouble finding the most accurate photos, and such. I'm a bit of a machinist, so I'm hoping to finally stretch my legs out on a blaster...

hey everyone! for my next project I am going to be making a t-51b power armor helmet from the fallout games! I am using the power armor edition helmet as reference. and I will be using 18 gauge mild steel for most of the metal work. I am starting with the back part of the helmet since it has...

First off, stripped off all the 'wood' parts and primed- Found this great primer that etches into plastic and metal removing the need for sanding (the most tedious part!) After priming I painted on then stippled my 'Steelgohst copyright magic rust paint' (iron powder mixed into acrylic paint...

Hi Everyone, I am currently in the process of making 1:1 film accurate replicas of the T-Virus vials, but I would like as my next project to create the carry case as seen in the video below, and the attached images: Reference video, watch from 2:13 up until 2:29 The main things I...

Here is my first attempt at a metal Boba Fett helmet. Not perfectly movie acurate and far from done. I kinda like how it looka all polished up! What do you all think?
