Yeah kick ass and he does have quills ,sweet.I guess it takes this to show everyone the possibilities!!!I truly didn't think the mouth was going to look right but its look bad ass.
 
:D Yeah, I don't know if this is going to be for sale...well maybe! :p

Ok, heres a little update...
Worked on the sword and the sheath. Weathered the sword blade a bit with some transparent colors and then blotted it to get a rusty cracked look.
I also wrapped the bone handle with some twine and stained it with some Dark Walnut stain and added some little beads.

For the flintlock, I didn't want to paint the gold pieces on around the handle and butt of the gun. I really wanted it to look authentic with some brass plates and fittings.
I found a couple of little brass finger rings. I cut out the pieces I wanted and glued them to the gun. I still need to weather them a bit, but you get the idea.

Thanks for the update, dog. It's looking phenomenal. As you can see, I stole a pic of his head for my avatar :D If you DO sell this, I am at the head of the line in bidders! It's just amazing!!!!!!!!
 
I knew this was going to be the most difficult parts of this custom...finding the netting. And it took a while too.
But I guess living near the beach paid off. I happend to stumble across some netting on a lighthouse in a gift shop.
I brought the Predators torso with me to see if it would work, and it looked pretty good. Its a tough cloth material. And it very sturdy.

I cut the parts out I need and fit them to the legs and torso. Then I tacked them to a poster board and misted them lightly with black spraypaint.

Starting in the back, I glued a little piece of netting to the inside joint areas on the top and bottom. Then I work my way around till the netting meets in the back.

Then I tuck all the leftover netting inside the open areas.

And heres the final product. Looks pretty cool! I'm glad that parts over.

I can't belive how amazing this thing looks, absolutely goregous! Maybe this might persuade NECA to make a 1/4 scale :D
But i dont think theirs can top this outstanding work of art...BLOODY HELL! o_O

Any ideas on how far it is till being completed?
