Ok If you want my real situation you can just read my profile. But i do have a dream and it is to make a predator suit with my brother(hes maken his own) and head off to the San Diego Comic Con with the predator convention clan, that'd be awsome i already know a couple personally that've been there.
Im Nightmare Pred and this is my suit and its build. sry i dont have very many progression pics, mostly completed ones. I dont have much money or resources, with that said...LET US BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First, the Med pack,
All i used was some foam core, high density styrafoam, foamies, blickrylic paint spounges and hot glue.
Secondly i made the chopper predator bio,
I bought the resin cast off of ebay and then went from there drilling out the visor area and smoothing out the edges.
this is how it was when it showed up at my door.
Then i started drilling painting trying out different thing and started thinking up of a general color.
I'd like to give a big thanks to HDOGG for supporting me and backing me up
I'm not gonna say your real name just in case you dont want me to
Here are some general pics of the helmet in progress. first i used a type of automotive primer grey as a primer two even coats, then the main flat black over it and did about 4 even coats for that charcoal look. MMMMMMMMMM Nice and black like it just came out of a house fire.
i did the primer first before the flat black
Started adding the metallic silver to bio after flat black.
Now here are some finished shots of the helmet paint job once again thanks hdogg and my dad for the tip. The visor that was put in was made from a toys plastic clear cover, and overspray of black silver and grey. This really made it look movie quality and like a real serious replica like you would buy online.
ONLY setback was however cool it was i couldnt see well enough to where i trusted myself to walk through a convention so i had to change ithmy: but instead i found some plastic that is used for motorcycle helmets but was not bought at a bike shop but was in a raw sheet and i had to cut a rectangle and use a heat gun to carefully bend it into place. Thank you Mr. ganchou Bowsher high. This looks just as cool if not better cause u cant see in but i can see out PERFECTLY.
Hot glue was used to seal in place.
but it had to be changed
visor being glued in
NOW THE FINISHED CHOPPER BIO
Note: lasers will be added just not now. when i can get some money.
Next the choppers signature arm blades made from foamboard bondo spraypaint coat hanger wire and high density styrofoam. Thank you Ms. Wilkins and Mr. ganchou and HDOGG for his support and patience .
first foam board models
paint job plus bondo.
Arm blades with gauntlets and wrist blades^
Test run for armblades and bio/armblades
P.S. i do not like the panthers, this is my brothers room,i like the buccaneers, and also i kno this is a shot where the blades are not complete and the visor is still silver.
Med pack
I have only one shot of this and i includes my home made plasma caster and arm. Enjoy
Thats all for now i hope you enjoyed my progress so far. its my first suit and thread.
Any and all kinds of constructive criticism is greatly appreciated in order for me to learn things new and improve my skill, Thanks
More pics and updates will be added but theres no honest date right now. Now im working on armour.
i hav a few helmet updates wit lasers painted until i can get some real ones in there
I FINALLY GOT SOME NEW PICS OF MY PRED HEAD AND PAINTED GAUNTS ETC.
heres my foam head not latexed yet and with about 25percent dreads on.
My painted gauntlets, still gotta shade but overall theyre done.
updated medpack-FORGET THE OLD ONE, IT LOOKED GHETTO AND NOT MOVIE QUALITY, AND NO REAL FEATURES.
This new one is made from the same stuff, i just completely ripped off all the old stuff and added what was appropriate.
Now some other pics my finished bio(added more silver) and arm blades.
AVP(HEAVY) Plasma caster finished
