P1 Gauntlets

[seahunterr]

Working on some P1 gaunts for my suit, I hope to have right and left, tops and bottoms done within two weeks. Probably make some new blades too. Here's what I have so far....

Looks great. Am looking at making a P1 costume. What did you make the gaunlets from? And how did you make them?

Cheers

thanks!
The parts are first formed with clay, plastic, foam, whatever....once you have it done where you like, you mold it, then cast the material you want to use, such as resin, latex, metal, etc.

You go, boy!

Taking longer than I hoped because of work...but here's the bottoms so far

 

[Double H]

Yeah, they're coming along nice. Liking the fine details that are coming through. I am starting to construct my gaunlets but doing on a budget at the mo as moulding skills and experience are second to none lol but have no idea where to start.

Job well done bud...most impressive Gene.

 

[seahunterr]

What kind of a paint job are you looking at?

 

[carlart]

The tops look a BDE computer, and a DB blade housing

 

[seahunterr]

The tops are both different versions of BDE, but not

 

[Metal Man]

They look great. Nice work.

 

[Double H]

Great job, there coming along brilliantly, liking the details

 

[seahunterr]

Few pics of them painted. I'll put the computer countdown windows with sequence decals, attach bomb lid, and add the blades next week.
