ALIEN WARRIOR

[batnemo]

Hi,
some bad pictures to show you the progress...
i need to glue the bottom of my legs (not on the pictures),the arms,to put foam in the fingers,to work on the neck and head...and painting all in black latex first...

 

[BurntKona]

It's going well. Is it possible to see in more detail your arms and legs (the black bits)? If I remember from seeing this on other forums, you are doing something different to the usual latex panels.

 

[MacRory]

:eek What you have done so far looks outstanding.

 

[GeneralMayhem]

Very nice. i would suggest adding lifts to the feet. The overall proportion of the suit is making the legs look a bit short.

 

[Darth Fett]

looking cool so far nice job.

 

[batnemo]

thank you very much for all...
so, yes i'm not making the usual alien suit, with latex parts on a spandex bodysuit that you can see...
i want an entire suit, and don't want to see any part of the spandex suit...so all will be cover ,full arms, full legs,full back...
i thought about the lift to the feet, but want to make the alien entire suit before, to see how it weight,and to think more about how making them...that's why latex feet are not glued on the shoes yet... but thank you very much for the idea...

its looking great so far.
You can push the details in the latex back out by pushing in cotton through the top or bottom edges.This way they don't collapse when moving around.Can't wait to see more.

 

[redeye]

That's a pretty cool costume

 

[batnemo]

so here we are... first layer of paint...it's not dry at all, cause i took these pictures 5 minutes after doing it...
so it will be dark black in a few hours...

and for the question, yes, i've had some foam in the latex parts to not collapse too much

 

[Lupus Yonderboy]

[batnemo]

here is the head, with the first layer of latex...
i've closed the bottom and back of the jaws,and added some tubes...

 

[batnemo]

some pics to show you how i can see... and contrary to what it seems, i can see very well...and i will cover the eye area with some black fabric i already bought...

some side shoot to show that it's difficult to see any parts of my skin...
