hey guys, i finally find the right time to make my own wip thread,through the months of studying and learning how to make IM pieces. Okay i know you all know me for all those questions i asked. I would like to thank robo and dungbeetle for the files,and all those great ppl who answered my questions and gave me tips, kagn,maulfett,starx,dark asylum,Masked Rider,bimmer and the ever returning finhead :lol. I also admire Graphic Jordan and Darth Cerberus' work also .
Okay dunno where to start but here are some pics of my work. I don't have fiberglass mat yet but i think the strength of the pieces will do for the meantime.
Feel free to comment, and also i wish some of you guys would help me out with some tips and suggestions.
here's the helm newly resined
the chest back and helm drying on the hot sun
oh btw i used finhead's tip to use clips on the faceplate while resining it, so i won't bother to dremel it apart.
here's some parts primered and resined.
yeah my little brother just keeps butting in on pictures hehe.
the leg parts so far
i will use starx' articulation technique on those joints, also replacing the shoe with dancin' fool's shoe files coz' i can't find spray foam here to fill the sole of the boot.
the helm
and the latest pic from the helm
i used kagn's magic sanding block technique to sand the helm. Sanding is the devil indeed. :lol
and i've redone the chest and back,
i found out that there's a thicker high heat tolerant double sided tape and i used it for a cleaner pep. I plan to resin them tomorrow, well if it doesn't rain and the sun shows up.
also planning to use magnets to attach/detach the back piece of the helm, thanks to masked rider for the idea.
well that's it, ill try to post more updates in time, due to my hectic schedule due to college classes. Sorry for the pics though, i know they're quite plenty.
