Hellboy Rasputin Mecha Glove project?
- Thread starter JOATRASH FX
- Start date
Yeah, next to my "Project Alice" (replicating Vera from Firefly), this is definitely the coolest project I've been a part of in all my years on the RPF.
(Oh, and the froggy mummy is definitely sculpted!)

If you read up on the history of fette fraktur it was THE nazi font so most likely the the one used on the prop
Edit* forgot To say this is a truly amazing build

just did this for fun £8 for an old spitfire gauge a bit of paper and ink and a bit too much paint.
Bump due to TESTED.com man cave stuff.

I would definitely be interested! I think a mecha glove would look awesome displayed next to my Hellboy costume I'm working on! Plus it's a mecha glove, and who doesn't need one of those?
Hey guys. 
This is an insanely complex project. I'm still sitting on a bunch of parts until I get time enough to really get some work done. Trying to find a suitably cheap thin-walled bearing for the ring... those Kaydons are crazy expensive!

Well, I've since gotten hold of a Kaydon bearing ($100... sent from a shop in Israel! First time I've ever gotten anything from that region of the world.) and Adam sent me some parts I couldn't get when I visited his Man Cave last year. Since then I also bought my own 3d printer so I can crank out a few things like the electrical box and such. I've got everything sitting there waiting... just have to find the time. I keep getting all these other projects that get in the way...
Time to bring this thread back from the dead because I've finished my Mecha-Hands. IN fact I've made two. One went to Guillermo Del Toro. One I'm keeping. Here is a "making of" gallery (many shots were posted year years ago!)

Here are the finished hands themselves
Finally, I designed and built a stand that I'm really happy with, here's the final pic, hand weathered on stand (I threw some film smoke into my shop for dramatic effect!
There will be more about this project on tested soon! I'm still not completely done. Done with the hands, not with the project...
Adam out.

Fantastic Adam!
Now I really have to get finishing my own copy. Must find someone local to help me cut the aluminum tube you sent. I also managed to track down a Kaydon bearing (new, but out-of-box) in a machine shop in Israel (of all places I never though I'd get a prop part from) for $100.
