My first Predator Costume

[Dillonusob]

yeah, you told me about pigments, and i want to see how it goes))) good luck!

This is what I am going to do. I plan to do black resin underneath, so for shading/wear i can rub off a bit of the metallic layer.

yep, i know this video. most be very nice with pred bio)

The ****** up part of all of this, is that I almost feel that once I have a cast out of my system, I actually may go back to the sculpt and add that left jaw button, and even smooth the wings even better. God I'm nuts. I get waaay too excited and rush. I will see how the first cast goes....

 

[Dillonusob]

First cast went great, and as I said, im going back to it lol. One thing I noticed, the texture of resin will reflect inconsistencies more than the clay does. Found some stuff that needs more work lol. Finished molds are piling up here!! Gonna add that button and back to refining. Also, love the black resin

 

[Dillonusob]

Jeez, just can't make up my mind. Built it back up as I have a tendency to take off too much. A bit of restructuring in the jaw, and im back to chasing the elusive P1 bio. Closest ive ever been...

 

[Dillonusob]

Funny oart was, i just dumped liquid monster clay over the whole thing, and brought it closer to where it needs to be. Monster clay rocks.

 

[Dillonusob]

Couple different angle pics. Gonna work on the top, the eyebrow just above eye holes, then details on the sight, and JAW BUTTON and tube port thing on upper left of bio. Love this one so far. Very excited.

 

[Jmen]

What about undermask? I mean exact predator face? Are you ready to sculpt it? =___=
P.s. AND JAW BUTTON, PLEASE

 

[Dillonusob]

Maybe half mask, open face for now.

 

[Dillonusob]

JMEN- JAW BUTTONNNNN

 

[Jmen]

Mama, im on YOU-TUBE!!!
Impressive sculpt, your skill is getting better, mr. Perfectionist.

 

[Dillonusob]

Wreav- that wet sanding works awesome. Using fine grit with mineral spirits and man does it save time. Thanks again for the pro advice!!!

 

[Dillonusob]

Tonight may be the night. Gonna spend time on the tube ports, jaw button and laser. Also going to smooth and refine a bit more. Hope to do some molding tomorrow!

 

[Jmen]

He shouldn't be in perfect condition, he is a hunter, not a model (but who knows) So, i think you need to leave it as it is. with right paintjob it will be almost like in the movie.
p.s. Jaw button

 

[Dillonusob]

Ha! Maybe you are right! There are a few spots though where I do need to clean up a little. But that idea of leaving it would feed my need to start molding lol. Perhaps tonight is the last night, and I will leave the little imperfections to give it some worn character!
