Predator2 mask Journey FINISHED.

im off wrk till friday so i am going to try get some work done on the stand/base and also im going to try knock up a neckring this week out of satelite cable, that is if i can find my glue gun lol.
 
Well they do not look the same as in the pictures, but ,aybe from a different mask , i dont know. only Andrew can answer that really.
 
The bigger dred rings Kithunter / Andrew was kind enough to supply the film molds, and give me permission to take a mold from one ( not done yet )

TBH i hadnt thought about the other dred rings, so ill have to get a couple of pics to see what i have to make.

I havent had time to work on the neckring, although i am going to use pics from The Winston Effect later today, ( im hung over from xmas party, so quiet day today ) to sit down and sculpt them.

Ive kinda been preoccupied with my bug suit etc , but im hoping to sell a P1 mask this week to fund latex, so i can start pushing out some P2's to people who have shown interest.

again sorry for slow updates, im kinda bouncing between about 5 projects still :D
 
Yeah those are the kind from the mold Andrew sent. theres more than those on a P2 head though isnt there, maybe 3 or 4 types
 
Looks like 3 then, as im not going to worry about minor differences, i can mess up some random dred rings in the mix :D + i have 2 of those, all i have to make is the smallest one :D
 
To save me answering PM's about when ill be pouring these up.

My new latex is orderd but i have just received a email to say it will not be with me until 6th or 7th Jan 2009. :lol:
 
At the beginning of this little project, you were complaining about it looking like **** and how you were conflicted on whether you should continue on your P2. But look at it now, its one of the most and accurate and beautifully detail ive masks seen around here. It doesn't look plasticy or sloppy. Its nearly perfect to any movie designer!
 
geeze guys stop it or youll make me cry hehe.

I HAVE alittle news on this , i stress the LITTLE, just want to do alittle more before i post.
 
Sorry for posting more pictures, I was not happy with the pictures i took yesterday and it was raining/windy and I was knackerd.

so I took these inside today to try show it alittle clearer ( must learn to use camera properly hehe ) also I have replaced the eyes with WOLFS eyes, and I think they go alot better.

I bet the words DREDS got your attenton huh :D

well sorry to tease lol but the title is not all it seems to be. As pretty much all of us are skint after xmas, i got to thinking, this is only going to be a display BUST and will never be worn. So latex dreds being heavy and not moving like real dreds is not a issue.

With that in mind i also realised that no one makes baby dreds as small as i required on my P2, so i sculpted up 3 different sizes and made a quick plaster mold, there are NO seems, BUT as you can see by the LIGHTER beside them, they are just BABY dreds.

I MAY try to make my own larger dreds but i will have to foam fill them,and it will depend on how they sit once on the head. if i am not happy, ill just save for some BAMBOOIE dreds.

Ill post a quick pic when i get around to painting these, and i hope to make a test FULL DRED mold next week, as i said though, I AM ONLY using these as it is a bust and does not require foam lightness or movement. and if i have to end up using foam dreds for the rest, the little latex ones will not be too noticeable.
