OK-- This is so bittersweet-- its done and that is awesome-- A true work of art!! But now what do we have to follow on the thread?? Whats next Steve??

Can wait to get mine!!!

Hey Clay, yes it is a little bittersweet and I am sorry for kind of an abrupt post but it was late and I had just spent 30 minutes making a nice post and when I went to add the video something happened and I lost the entire update. I didn't have much time to redo the post but I wanted to get an update out. What is next? Well, I still need to get these available so that is my next priority. Then I want to get working on a skin so I can make some armor.

Oh MY!!! How deliciously awesome. Thanks for the journey Steve.

You are most welcome Ricky...thanks for following from the start.

Um, okay Dude. Wow. If you aren't completely happy and PROUD of this, then there is something wrong.

I really don't know what else to say here Steve, I'm at a loss for words. You did a hella good job with those lasers (told you they were a PITA, didn't I? lol) and the blinky flashy inside is so very cool. So, When are we gonna see these in the market place?

Brian

Hey Brian, I am very happy how it turned out but the lasers could be better IMO and you were absolutely correct in saying they are a pain to align. I had to go through a few needless to say until I figured out what was going on with them. I would get then all ready and install them and they would be way off but I eventually understood and came up with something that is workable. I hope to have a level 1 and level 2 available in the marketplace within the week.

Steve, Thanks for the video. It is truly an amazing piece. I am curious also as to what is next. And you say you have never done anything like this before? That is just crazy. Congratulations on finishing the build. I hope to have a final video up like this very soon. I feel I might slow down not having your updates to spur me on. Again, very very nicely done.

Hey Jeff, to be honest, I have done similar things but not molding with silicone or casting resin or sponge painting a bio, etc. Don't slow down on my account because if you do it will prompt me to get going quicker on something else... I am really looking forward to seeing topknot finished.

Haha, I love the little blinkies inside the Bio! Well done Steve! That's simply amazing...I have no other words...just incredible work...

Thanks Jason! I felt it needed something even if just simple. It kinda' helps make it feel more functional and I think finishes it off well.

BRAVO!

Thanks Daman. I am looking forward to seeing the 'Silent Assassin' done. You are doing an excellent job on it.

Just awesome man. No words, just feelings haha

Thank you sir. I appreciate the kind words.

And thew Oscar goes to----- STEVE!!!!

PS I contacted Matt and sent him a link to this.

C'mon Clay..it's just a bio but thank you on both accounts.


I thought it might be neet to put up a few pictures that collage the project from start to finish...kind of a foam to finished in 60 seconds or less sorta' thing...

Now it is time for the 'final rung'...

From a stack of foam and a can of super 77, to a masterpiece of craftsmanship.  The pcis tell one heck of an awesome story Steve, and I'm sure there were times when you were thinking "what have I gotten myself into?"  I have a hunch that once these things hit the market place, they won't last very long.  As I'm sure you know, I already have the perfect spot to display mine once I have it.  What an awesome gift/talent you  you have my friend.  I don't know what I'm gonna do when this thread is no longer updated...I always looked forward to seeing what you had in store for us.

This is the final rung.

I have come to the point where I have accomplished making this helmet which is what I set out to do when I started this thread. I have learned so much along the way and everyone who has supported me has been such an encouragement. My desire all along has been to see God be glorified through my skills, actions and attitudes and I have strived to represent Him and the Lair well. As an act of extending grace, and in the spirit of the Lair, I have therefore taken the names of the members who have posted on this thread and added their names to a "hat", well, OK the bio helmet for every time they posted. Some of you have posted more than others and therefore had more of a chance to win but the drawing is over and the winner is......alphatech686!!! Congratulations Jeff!

Can you just imagine?  What a day maker! Awesome eh?

 

[BonzRus]

Thank you all so very much! I am still waiting to hear from Jeff so thank you Clay for letting him know. He probably has not yet had a chance to check the thread or the PM I sent him. It is funny that he said he didn't enter anything...that is how grace works...he was chosen.
