My HD War Machine suit (PIC-HEAVY) New Model done! a new construction starts!!!

Re: My HD War Machine suit (PIC-HEAVY)All WM brothers welcome!!!

Funny you asked, I was looking or it, but no quite find what I was looking for, but I can tell you what it means thou...

FLTS, ED, 445 (the 445th Flight Test Squadron out of Edwards AFB); 001 (production number); AF (attack fighter); and 57 (the placement suggests the suit was built in 2057).

Somebody with a good Photoshop software can make them easy, I don't have it otherwise I will make them....

I think you can take it to a decal printing place..my frind is in a car club n he made a sticker with them there's one like 5 minutes from where i work...i can find out...also seems that the ED is the same letterin..if you print out the other words they can make the ED

Congrats on the new job! Like many subscribed in this thread Im making war machine foam build too! Ill post pics when I finish both arms. I have already finished chest and back, abs, thighs, shins and boots. only thing left would be gloves, mini gun and arm guns. I have masked riders version 1 helmet. What specific colors should I pick up to match the colors on the helmet? Thanks and hope to get some answers soon.



Thank you ma, I'm excited too. Also I'm waiting to hear from another one that I'm in the run for a position paying more...cross fingers on that one!!!

I'm glad to hear you're able to keep the helmet. It looks great with the new torso :thumbsup I can't believe you've made 4 of them already. I'm hoping to start mine soon this thread has really inspired me. My plan is to finish the 3D printed helmet I got from coofunkcurly, which fits like a glove and scale the armor top down from their.

Great Job! I can't wait to see it all together.


You guys keep me inspired; I'm looking at all your builds, it's cool to see more WM being made here...make sure to put pictures...

Sweet; if you look into it and find out how much I will get a set, you may put an interest thread for them....

it would depend on the scaling of you're armor right?

If you have access to an airbrush, definitely paint these .. it will look much better in the end!!! :thumbsup
 
Re: My HD War Machine suit (PIC-HEAVY)torso 4.0 made and fitting...

Bigturc is absolutely right, if there is a way to get this stenciled so it can be painted on, that would be more "real" looking and probably best.:cool
However, that having been said, LOL!, if we can get a good set of decals in the right scale, I am seriously in!:lol:$
Decals with a coat of matte or gloss clear over it will look really sweet and be so much less work in a build that has so much work already..:)
 
Re: My HD War Machine suit (PIC-HEAVY)torso 4.0 made and fitting...

Do your legs fit nice with that scale or have you not tried them yet? I'm getting ready to start mine and I'm trying to figure exactly where to measure and other people's scales to go off of.
 
Re: My HD War Machine suit (PIC-HEAVY)torso 4.0 made and fitting...

Oh man, those images with the decals is exactly what I've been looking for. Thanks so much!

I was hoping to go a little further with mine and put a pilot/callsign on the helmet (thinking Top Gun here), and then handpainting a slogan on the minigun motor shroud. I was watching Aliens and thought about putting what Ferro had on her helmet ("fly the friendly skies") or even better, putting "peace through superior firepower" like on Frost's shirt.

Just some fun ideas.
