Darn Don Juan that is sweet!!! :love I think that 1.85 i used on the chest will be too huge for the shoulders?! Any ideas how we are going to hang those bad boys??? I have bought some wide reciever shoulder pads for football and was thinking of modifying them and using velcro/straps dunno to hold them on..magnets? might not handle all the motion...Id love your thoughts Prop and Don!:cool

I was thinking like black elastic....that way it has movement And it keeps it in place.but not sure yet.. I have some ideas for the motor for gun...I'm working on that but wasn't sure of the specs on gun

I am going to modify the Nerf punisher Gatling Gun,:lol It is heavy, but spins nice and give some loud popopopops!fires nerf bullets too!:love Air Zone Punisher Gatling Blaster - Toys R Us - Toys "R" Us
there is a video attached, it looks cool,:cool Bought it so as soon as I get my gatling shell I will post a Tut!
I have a start on getting a gatling gun shell from wondersquid and that should fit over the gun to give it a scale look too. It is heavy, but working on an aluminum under armor mount.
Hope it is ok if I bring this over David!?:$
 
Re: My HD War Machine suit (PIC-HEAVY)update-and first injury...

Don't modify..just paint it black and put it up there......hahahaha.....
 
Re: My HD War Machine suit (PIC-HEAVY)update-and first injury...

Mwahaha....no.:lol I really want it to look as good as possible so I am going to disassemble it and use wondersquids vaccuform to skin it. It should look very realistic and the armature wonder made is beautiful!
That is a good idea, though, One fellow is trying that but it is simply too heavy for the armor....

here is the gun, minus the Nerf gun, I think the disassembed motor/rotor assembly will fit inside!!

Hello Guys; wow did you know that by far we are the only ones working on the war machine? The rest is either buying one or doing IM anyways, what I'm doing with the shoulders bells is attached them to the torso with an elastic band with will have a snap on button that way i can take them off...also I have been playing with the idea to use knew braces to connect the shin and thigh plus it will help with the weight of the two parts...

Were awesome then..lol..were or own support group..lol..that's what I was thinking also..I walked down the craft isle at Walmart they have those like rivets gun but with a snapping button unread they are in the crafts or the sewing isle...

I tell you I am so glad to have found you guys! :cool It will be cool to work through our build issues and help each other! I am so puzzled why everyone goes to IM and missed WM? Its got guns:love for crying out loud!
I think people think of War Machine as a side kick cause they let someone else wear it in the movie..At least we'll be ones of the few who get to have the fun of this build!!!
I will let you know how the football shoulder pads work out! They should fit inside the bells. Those puppies are huge! LOL!
David, did you find the materials for your hinges? I posted a thread about the Micarta, but will gladly make you some for your build! You too Don if you need a piece let me know! This stuff is like thin aluminum and cuts and sands like wood!:)
Not much building tonight, bad long day at work and writing that thread wore my tired brain out, will resume tomorrow with the build... lord the time goes so fast.:cry:sleep

Those I bought them online, home depot has some but they are crappy, these little suckers are strong

All you fellows here are doing an awesome job on your WM builds! I wish I had the room to make one of my own!
