Realistic buzz lightyear

Its a plastic called Excel (used to be Sentra ) very styreneish (better quallty and ez to heat mold) it doesn't crack and holds paint like a champ . I love the stuff. I am putting on the dome and chest tomorrow.

Where do you find "Excel" plastic and also your polycarbonate dome?
Don't worry I'm not building Buzz but I have another project in mind..

I got my plastic for about $20 for 4'x8' sheet at Advanced plastics. the poly domw was from a store online called Lamp Post Globes etc. LLC was about $60 I was going to use acrylic but that stuff cracks EZ!
 
Did you have a pattern for your head gear or did you just wing it?
This hole build has been winged I measure then cut and so on . its been alot faster and not as pretty as I would have liked but for the most part its alot faster. and I am running out of time .

Will you end up with/have the red blinking lights on the wing tips?

Looks really good so far. I like how you did the gloves too. Laser pointer for the arm laser???

Keep it going,

there already installed (wing bliky lights)! look closely !!! it is an encased led light . looks kinda like a little light saber (LOL)
 
You seem to get alot done quickly.. hope you get the rest done by halloween.

I have been working a lot on it . I have every thing done sept for the boots . I need to paint a few things tomorrow then put it all together with rivets . should be done by thuerday . . . or so I think .

Well happy birthday!!!!
wait - you made a present for your X? I don't think I even talk to any of mine, let alone giving them birthday gifts, let alone making gifts for them. You sir, are a true gentleman.

*Edit*
On a related note, it's my girlfriend's birthday tomorrow as well. Weird.
 
Happy birthday.. I think you should grow out your beard.. or tuff.. more realistic than a clean shaven buzz.
