Backbone (Slow) Pred Build, Wip

Absolutely stellar job on the suit thus far! Can't wait to see it completed and in better lighting conditions

Thanks I'm gonna take some good pictures once it's completed I plan on at least painting the hand today, it's payday so time to buy some materials XP
I'm really happy with the overall proportions of my suit. That's been my biggest worry this whole time especially with the feet and shins. I also want to make a shout out to termokk for these absolutely stunning dreads and his speedy delivery. They are near weightless on my mask and their movement is spot on.
I had to come up with some out of the box unique dread beads for this bad boy, I'll post some pictures of them when I get off work.

I'm sorry for not posting more photos this weekend, work has taken allot out of me the last couple days. I did Finnish working on my belt, I got the thigh armour and all my leather bits riveted on. I also made some vertebrae dread beads and the face of a predator skull as a belt buckle. Gonna attempt painting his hand today if I can, as always everyone I know needs me to weld something or they don't have the technical know how on how to do something simple so I might be stuck doing that junk all week when I get off work instead of working on my predator, but as for now I've got a few photos from the other day I haven't shared yet that are pretty good. Just after hollowen I should have the suit completely finished and have a cool photoshoot planned. I'm taking him out to red river gorge and gonna climb up on some dangerous boulders and stuff like that lol.

Ok, I had a rough time getting my airbrush going today but the hand is finally painted! I had my air hose bust on me 4 times and my airbrush itself is just gummed up even after several naphtha baths. Yet I managed to get it to paint......

Here's a quick shot of my mask chilling in my living room with better lighting. I'd have some awesome photos of me wearing the suit but

Alas my group of humans decided not to go to the parties we'd planned for over a week on making appearances at. Of course they didn't let me know until an hour before the first party. Either way I plan on adding some better armor to the feet and Making some shin armour in the coming weeks.

Evil dead 1, 2, and army of darkness, a bunch of 007, jabberwocky, 12 monkeys, the full box set of monty pythons flying circus, life of brian, the 3 stooges, terminator 1 and 2 , and of course all the alien movies and predator 1 and 2. There's too many more to list them all but that's the gist haha. I've have allot of them in both vhs and dvd. Can you tell I don't have cable? lol

It's been far too long since I've seen small soldiers. I wish I didn't have to go online to find a copy lol especially in vhs another one I still need to find is the Indian in the cupboard. I remember that one being pretty out there haha.
