Subject Delta WIP

[Wellss01]

I have started a subject delta build asa way to push my skills and expand my knowledge on different build supplies. I am a trainee prop maker by trade and i love doing it and love my job.

I started with a pepakura base, i have never used it before but it seemed fairly straight forward

The pep work came together after about two nights work.
The next step was that i fiberglassed the whole thing. I used chop strand and polyester resin.

As you can see it had many fasits and i didn't have the money to cover it with an inch of bondo. So my next step was expanding foam. I covered the helmet in it and patted it down with wet latex gloves on. Once it was cured i started carving using a razor sharp olfer knife.

Once fully shaped, i paper mached it.

I have completed the paper mache and am currently trimming the helmet and adding all the bits and pieces. Once that is all done, i will be laying fiberglass on it and then digging the foam out. Its known as the lost foam method.


I will keep this post updated as best i can. This will be an interesting challenge.

I have trimmed the bottom acording to my reference pics and what scale i can gain. And i have marked out where everything should be

The next step will be laying cardboard to make the ridges and adding detail, then paper mache over that. I am putting a lot of effort into my mold because the better the mold, the better the final product should turn out (hopefully)

Its been a while since i have done anything on this build due to work, i recieved some corflute, so i used it to lay down the raised sections.

After the raised sections blocking out, i had some smoothing to do, so i used a bit if joint compound to sculpt the feathering, its rough sculpting and tomorrow i will sand it pretty

Subscribed and looking forward to seeing this progress.

I have always wanted to make a Big Daddy, but the Bouncer is just too big a project right now. A Subject Delta may be a good alternative though.

Also a side project for my girl who is cosplaying with me. Not sure at the moment whether she will be a little sister or a splicer but i thought i better prepare either way. View attachment 150647

Its been a long time since i have worked on this costume because of other commitments.

I glassed helmet and i have finnally pulled all the crap out of the centre of it. I pulled the expanding foam and paper mache out. Now im left with a hollow shell



The next thing was cutting sections out to make it thinner to fit my build.



I hope you guys enjoy. I have a lot of glassing to go and then paint
