Double H's Cobra Predator - The Evolution Of A Predator (Wip)

[Double H]

The only issue I noticed from various Wickford hunt pictures is the positioning of the axe on the backplate it seemed to get lost amoust the dreads.

I did consider hanging from the the wait belt or maybe even the skull sash but not really sure.... any help guys?

How about upside down, Jason. Only the end of the shaft gets lost then?

Thanks bud, thinking I will do that but have the axe shaft at an angle of my back (thanks Wonko in chat convo) so as to be able to grab it over my shoulder

Update time... again! Busy few days lol

Cannon arm and backpack refurbishment is now fully complete. The cannon arm has now been weathered and rusted up, the axe has now been flipped (thanks Tony, Brian and Lee for the idea) now I will shut up a show you some snaps.....

with cannon and some leather attached

Thanks for looking guys and gals, please let me know what you think..... now to review and see whats next lol

 

[wonko]

Turned out good Jason. How easy is it to remove the cannon now? BTW, I like the ax like that!

Brian

 

[Double H]

Thanks Brian, the cannon is held on with 4 rare earth magents (2 at the base of the cannon and 2 at the top of the arm) and holds on well - in fact when attached, i can turn the whole armour upside down and the cannon doesn't come off even when shook lol

It can be removed easily by reach over my shoulder and basically pulling it away from the arm. Same for attaching it lol

 

[LadyZero]

Turning the axe that way up makes it easier for light-fingered females to steal and run around with cuz you can't feel that we've done it. Watch your back

Looking good though. Does the cannon fold flat or does it sit up all the time?

 

[Double H]

Lol I got my eye on you Ma'lady lol also it slightly touched my back so will know i something happened to it.... unlike when it was the other way up lol

It sits up the whole time but they way it has been made I can go back over one day and alter it so that it can be folded away.

Looks bad ass buddy

Thanks bud, taken alot of time and revamping to get this far. I just always seem to find ways to improve on bits and bobs and change them - in an attempt to lose the AVP feel and make it more custom

Great paint jobs on these the little axe is cool LEDS look awesome in the back pack great work right there.

Thanks man, honored to hear that from the Horror King! When are we going to see NinjaBiker's Pred build hitting the boards?

 

[NINJABIKER]

Very soon i will get halloween out the way. i failed with making silicone hands for my zombie costume so im thinking on that at the mo lol.
Im getting another zombie mask made up for flea bay to help with funds. As i have noticed ppl are going crazy in the uk for masks this
time of year.
But hey keep it up bud its looking bad ass.

 

[toddslightning]

haha im on here also .. i was talkin to u on RPF .. i have the same account name on both

 

[Double H]

Thanks all, I love this time of year. Shops start flooding with people trying to find there 'bargain' Halloween costume whilst trying to change there costume for something different than last year. And the props, if your in the right place at the right time with a good imagination, are awesome like this machete blade I found and chain. Both made from plastic but cost no more than £4.

Need some TLC and has a long way to go to become 'predator' like. Also has the feel of the Berserker Blade? anyway, boot is there for size ref am a size 11 so it probably about 2 1/2 foot long.

Here's the progress

More to come, rough up of the blade/hilt and aging of leather etc.

Let me know what you guys think
