Good question! Just ask google image for "tamtam 1968"Where I can get that black torso thingy
Well it's hot glue "Rapid GEN-T", sets in 15-30 seconds.Excellent work! That is a good tip about lining up the seams too. Do you mind sharing what kind of glue you use?
I suggest you could pick some clues from the first post.How do I search for that kind of foam...
It's 100% all made from the same foam I've always been using for every part of all of my builds, 7mm polyethylen foam rolls.... The chin section of the build, is that the same foam as the body? Are you just using consistent 6.5mm foam for the whole build?
Well, probably with the same rubber coating I always use. Then blue/grey paint.How on Earth are you going to make that last?!
Cost it with Varnish or Latex or Flexi-Resin ?
It's so beautiful, gotta protect it !!
Not to be rude or anything but is there a big difference between blackkaos's and laellee's foam templates? Just curious!
Great work as always!!
I haven't seen these unfolds specifically, but I'm going to assume a pretty big difference for a couple of reasons.
1) I modeled my Robocop specifically for paper pep, and went pretty overboard with details like panel separation lines that are only a few mm wide. The result is a very detailed model that is also very tedious to build in paper. The foam files were an afterthought; had I modeled it for foam, I would have left all of those panel lines off to be added later, making the build much more manageable.
2) Gaiatron did an awesome job unfolding my original model for foam, but he essentially got stuck putting lipstick on a pig because of what I described above. :lol I could have made mine much friendlier, but oh well. In contrast, BlackKaos' model doesn't look like it gets bogged down in the stuff I went overboard on for paper, and with JFcustom unfolding and build you know it's going to be amazing.
Anyways, this is looking incredible opcorn The proportions alone make it awesome to me, never mind the cleanness of the suit design and build so far. :thumbsup
Cod abs section...

To simulate a thicker material, I use a simple moutain fold around the bottom apperture of the cod piece :

Test (successful) of a cod / abs telescopic section. A smoother walk should decrease the guy-in-a-box effect when strolling suited.

In the movies this section is also rotative sideways. It's pretty easy to reproduce, I'm torn about doing it for the red suit.
