Ha! On this weeks episode of "Still Untitled" my K-2SO was brought up again in the last 5 minutes of the show. I still hope they have a good 20-30 minute talk about the RPF party but so far the snippets I've heard make me swell with pride. At SVCC there was an awesome paperboard K2 sculpture that had glowing eyes and a servo in the neck. Awesome work!
C2E2 was also this past weekend and my Instagram friend https://www.instagram.com/harteattackcosplay/ showed off his K-2SO puppet there. He did an amazing job with the joints and has his walk down! I think i'm still about 2-3 weeks out from finishing but the end is in sight.
Tonight I did some little bits of work. Progress is progress.
Rounded the horseshoe shoulder brackets. I think this will help fit them into the shoulder bell pieces. I plan on making those tomorrow night.
Finally finished the elbow joint inner pieces.
This hides the joint. Though I'll need to touch up the inside with black before final paint.
I decided to knock out the small 2 button box on the left side of the chest. (relative) I traced it out as 1" wide by 2" high.
Cut out the edges on the back side and folded the piece together. Then changed tactics and trimmed the top and bottom to make them insert pieces.
Carved out the two buttons. I might replace these later with plastic.
Coming along nicely. You can see my Stormtrooper armor bin in the background here.
Cut out the 1" x 2" pocket. Had to remove some material behind it from the lower torso.
Also added a small notch to the top of the front abs plate.
Now his torso is one step closer to being done.
More work tomorrow night. I think i'll finish the shoulders then so the arms will be 100% done. I'll also finish the shoulder cone detail work and the neck cone.
Adam asavage talked about how he used an iPhone robo voice app to give his Totoro some sound. I downloaded an app called RoboVox which seems to do the trick. Just need to pick up a 1/4" split adaptor to output the sound to my aker and receive an input from my over the ear lav mic. Thanks for the idea Adam. I should be able to run the program on the iPad mini already installed in K2's back. This will pass through my voice to get it sounding even more like K-2SO. I don't think running the POV camera app in the foreground will interfere.
Also excited that the Tested.com interview has hit over 200k views in just one week!
More K2 tomorrow night, the end is in sight.
