Infinity Gem Search!

Here's a pic of all 16 colors. The bottom most yellow and green are actually different from the rest since they have a pearlescent shine to them.

Think enough people want some to make a thread in the marketplace? I figure it's better than people having to buy 12 of each color for only a set or two.

These are great! I'm lovin mine. I sat down with a friend of mine and we figured out which ones i'm usin. Here's a pic with the ones i'm using circled.
 
Good choices, CCP. I wasn't a big fan of that yellow one you circled because of how different it was from the rest but may end up using it as well and just setting it a little lower in its holder. I'll figure that out later on.
 
I asked this in the order thread, but I'll ask here too...

Is there a source for the base gauntlet? Or are there just more ridiculously talented people who sculpt things that make my best efforts look little better than used colostomy bags?
 
Yea, it was a bit bulbous next to the others, but i figure either mount it on the thumb, away from the others, or make the mounts in a way that'll hide it well. And Tullfan, Personally i'm not sure what people have used as a base. I'm using a welding glove that imho matches the color of the comic glove. (As in a yellowy orangy color, not gold) I know some people have used rubbermaid dish gloves as well.
 
Very nice. Altho, i'm with you on the gems. I'd hit up Ryu on his interest thread in the Newly renamed, then renamed again Junkyard.
 
Here's the bigger gem I found that would work for the back of the Thor movie version of the infinity gauntlet:

Haha ya that thing was pretty hideous looking. I'll take it though if it gets Thanos in a flick eventually.

That is a good point. But then I wouldn't mind a movie just about Thanos gathering the gems, and such. They made the Infinity wars comic, why not a movie on that by itself? And how in the world are they going to work the gauntlet into a Thor movie? I guess we'll have to wait and see.
 
For the movie gauntlet, I think it'll be in Odin's "hall of trophies" along with the cosmic cube. That's my best guess anyways.

The movie version ain't that bad. A Big floppy leathery glove just doesn't look imposing in my opinion. Bendy metal stuff looks awesome on comics, not so much in real life.

(No offense to the comic gauntlet builders.)

I'm also sure the movie gauntlet will look cooler once a real hand is inside. Empty gloves always look kinda dorky and limp.

Granted, but the gems are my main problem. The little tiny ones...and then one big one? Come on. They're all of equal power, so should be of equal size. Also, I don't have a problem with it being an armor gauntlet. You're right. A golden leather glove (Golden fleece?) isn't right for movies...It should be armor! Just like they did with the Witchblade in the TNT series. I liked that! But not so Norse...i mean ok....it's a movie about THOR, but still. The glove is supposed to be alien!
 
I would love to see a movie of the Thanos' Quest storyline where he collects the gems. It's probably my favorite story arc of all time in comics. I was loving life when they finally ditched the purple and gold get-up he usually wears for the black and silver in the last crossover. I'm eventually getting a tattoo of him in that costume.

Anyway as far as the gauntlet goes, personally I don't mind the new gauntlet, but I would have much preferred a gold bracer on brown leather (with a plate on top of the hand for the gems) to plate mail. It's not so much that I wanted them to make a comic correct version as much as I would have liked to see it handled a little more creatively than mounting the gems on the most cliche (and boring) plate mail gauntlet that I've seen in a 100 medieval flicks.

That's actually a really good idea, and with movie logic would work.
 
Thanks, but what the hell right? At least we finally get to see the Gauntlet in a flick. I suppose beggars can't be choosers haha.
