2000AD Street Judge

[Trooper1854]

I'm wanting to do a street Judge 2000AD style.
My all time favourite artist is Steve Dillon, I just love the way he draws the Judges:

I have a helmet, belt buckle, badge, and Lawgiver:

I would like to make as much as possible myself, so I am looking for tutorials to build the shoulder pads, elbow & knee pads, boots & gloves.
So if anyone has any links to such tutorials I would really appreciate it if they could post them here.

Many thanks

I really dig the lawgiver. Sweet work. Good luck on your build.

great progress, any working shots?

 

[Trooper1854]

Here are some work in progress shots of the helmet.
It's fibre glass, so I used Halford's primer-filler and some P-38 body filler to smooth and refine the shape.
The chrome plated respirator plate came with the helmet.
It was painted with car paints then rubbing/polishing compound gave it a smooth, high gloss finish.
I used a piece of clear acetate for the visor. The darkened portion was achieved using car window tinting film.

Now just looking for pointers how to make the shoulder pads et al!

from what I could work out is the lower two layers are 10mm EVA foam (floor mats from Halfords) top layer look 5mm EVA foam. I worked out rough overhaul measurement's someone may be able to give you more accurate ones.

pics below are from planet replicas

Looking good. Keep the work coming.

For what its worth (you may find some bits useful) my build is on here somewhere.

Ok, I have moved on and built my shoulder eagle and pad.
Using a foam army sleeping mat and some other bits this is what I have made:

The shoulder eagle looks fantastic! Good idea using the polystyrene egg for the body, I've been wondering how to do that part with foam sheets.

Have been making the belt.
Using a heavy duty leather belt as the base.
The pouches are made from craft foam.
Painted with acrylics, I found Mr Color's RLM82 a good match.

belt looks fantastic, Trooper!!!! You said RLM82?
It would be nice if there would be any type of website with real , original colors, so we can adapt to that.

I believe this is from a series bible produced by Wagner and Grant. It gives the Pantone colours for the Judge uniforms. Not sure how well it'd translate to real life, but it's a start
