First Pred Costume

[leatherneck]

I figured it is finally time that I post some in progress shots of my first predator costume. It is a Synder skin with most of the hard armor parts coming from Chuck. The mask is Manowar's closed mouth P1. Dreads are Bambooie as well as the P2 dread beads. It is also my first time at painting an entire skin and my second attempt at painting a mask. I still have alot to learn about painting latex!

Took some new pics today, it is pretty much finished. This was a test run for Halloween to see how everything fits together. It is the first time that I put everything on and it was a learning experience to say the least. Let me know what you guys think.

Armor's nicely painted up. Costume's off to a great start. Really like the paint detail around the abdomen

Quills down the chest and shoulders are a great addition

I really need to add some more magnets in my bio and mask and need to figure out a better lift system for my feet. The ones that I have in now really suck, hurts to walk in them after a short time.

What would be really cool is if you could make a Predator Shield something like what you have in the background of this photo. Granted I don't know if there is such a thing in the Predator world, but it makes you think though huh?

Looks good to me, I think the shield idea would be a cracker for this pred, can you get a pic holding the shield?

I agree, I would like to see that as well Marcel.

I plan on taking some more pics soon, I did some small tweaks here and there. I'll try to get a pic holding the shield that is hanging on the wall, it is just a pain in the ass to hang it back up. Thanks for the comments guys!!!

Thanks for the comments guys! I learned alot by painting this skin. I really want to do another suit in a very different color scheme and pattern, but that is going to have to wait until next year.

We understand it is getting closer to the Holidays, we all will be busy with families, trying to gifts, and just not having time for a lot of building in general.
