Thats looking really good my friend, great job.

One thing that bothered me about the original bio was the sizable dent in the dome. This and a few uneven spots were my first fixes. It took several layers of apoxie sculpt to even it out. It needs more sanding but it's already fairly even feeling.

 

[A Hunters Moon]

The dome resculpt was a bigger issues than I was expecting. Getting it as smooth and round as possible became a slight obsession the last few days. Now that I'm back on track I wanted to move onto a few of the details that had excited me about redoing the bio. Coming up with a new tri-laser felt like reinvent the wheel. lol

 

[slinker]

great work love the look of the laser mount

 

[Usurper]

oooooooooooh snazzy laser, me like.

 

[Double H]

nice looking laser shroud, great idea

 

[A Hunters Moon]

From what I understand the base bio was a test cast done while trying out different types of resin. For that reason the helmets back ridge has always been paper thin and very brittle. Originally I reinforced it with a tw

 

[Double H]

Starting to coming along brilliantly my friend. Have you got a picture to see what that looks like from the front. Can't wait to the this finished

 

[kaufmanp92eb]

Love the way it is coming out. and the laser shroud looks badass!!

 

[A Hunters Moon]

I give you . . . the front! lol Nothing too major has been done since my original sculpt. The middle brow and snout pieces were adjusted

 

[Double H]

Thats looks awesome, I really like the way that snout area has been shaped. Gives it more definition and makes it more distinguished. Excellent work.

When you got a sec, I need to borrow your brains for a while lol

 

[A Hunters Moon]

Pick my brain or scoop it our for analysis? One of those I'd allow. lol

 

[Guan Thwei]

That laser shroud looks sick as all hell very well done man

 

[Double H]

Scoop it out sounds good and then maybe a brain switch lol I need your brains .......

 

[A Hunters Moon]

I really wasn't sure what the keyhole snout was during my original build. It was simply a design. I explained it to some deg

 

[Double H]

Yeah like the newer snout, slightly larger but more detailed and defined. Great work there my friend. I like the idea of adding a respirator into the bio design, think it real brings the whole idea to life.

Are you considering doing a rattlesnake suit build? I would love to see the armour for that or even if you sculpted a rattlesnake undermask - that would be epic.

Lovin' this

 

[A Hunters Moon]

If I ever happened to do a mask sculpt it would be in the veeery distant future. Same with a suit build. I do plan to buy a Usurper mask sometime and paint it as rattlesnake display head. I'm thinking blue gray tones.

 

[Double H]

Yeah,sounds great - reflecting the effect from the bio to the mask. I like it....

Great Progress Thomas
I like how you're refining the lines ,symmetry and streamlining the original design. I winner in my book.
Can't wait to have one of them bad boys in my collection.
I'm glad you decided to produce it.
