Hey guys, what's up. Been a very long time since I have posted anything on here. the following are a few pictures of my Maleficent build. I apologize now if this post is messed up in any way. Posting this from my phone and hoping it works out, but without further ado...
Ok now I'm sure you're asking yourself "why would a guy be building Maleficent Horns?" Well they Arnt for me. The are a gift to a friend.
The process:
Started out with Pepakura
File here:Maleficent's Horns by EuTytoAlba on deviantART
Then I Put resin on the outside, fiberglass the inside. I'm sure most of you know the steps. I was familer with everything up to the bondo-ing because I always kinda quit at that step on my past projects. As for the paint there is a gap in the pics because this project is time sensative and there is another project I'm working on along side this one (more on that later) so the witch has a design on the horns that add the "horn" effect as if you couldn't already tell that's what they are. I wanted to keep true to that but make it my own at the same time. I taped off where I wanted color and then painted the horns with plasti-dip. To kinda fill in my first failed attempt at bondo sanding and give the horns a dull look. I carefully trimmed the edges of the tape and peeled The tape away from the horns. The pics I didn't take were where I then lined the stripe left behind with more tape and then sprayed the stripe purple. I know there was and easier way of doing this but I'm a noob and still learning. Lemme know what you guys think.
Soon I will be post pics of part 2 of this project
