P1 gauntlet, WIP

[hez1]

So a while ago I got bored, and decided I was going to make my own set of P1 gauntlets. I started with the left one, since there's more reference available for it than the right one.

Here's what I have so far, I know the 4 screens are slightly oversized; that's deliberate. When it comes time to actually fit them, I'll put some clay around the outside to both seal them in, and make them look right. How am I doing so far? My next stop is the actual lid for it...and working out a way of making it fold up and down.

No one likes it?

Looks good so far, more progress would definitely encourage people to comment I'm sure.

What's it made of?

 

[hez1]

So far? Sculpey.

 

[BANE]

looking good. keep up the good work.

 

[Usurper]

looks good Hez, are you going to be going for accurate or your own take on this?

 

[hez1]

I'm going for as accurate as possible given there's not a lot of reference on the P1 gauntlets. I've been working from the screencaps in the reference section for this.

Did someone say accurate? Good luck, Hez!

 

[hez1]

Carl, am I to understand that this is a tricky piece to get right?

That is one helluva cool prop. How do they wire the lights to make the predator numbers change? Some kind of timer?

Hey thanks guys, and thanks for the ref pics TMI.

Sadly, this project is still in the same state. One day I will stop having more important stuff to do and will get back to it.
