"Topknot's" gauntlet.

[AlphaTech686]

Some of you may remember this thing from a year or two ago. I pulled it back out and redesigned the blades. I actually started on the housing. Can you believe it. Hope you all like it. As always, comments welcome.
The new blades.

The housing halfway done.

give us more.

[MasterAnubis]

You motivate me.

 

[MProjects]

Fuckin' ai bro! that thing is lethal, like Kit said...The detail is top notch, this is great stuff.

 

[PredatrHuntr]

Holy shitballs those blades are deadly looking! Nice work on the gauntlet details too...

 

[CoolleKotten]

It looks like it could actually kill someone.....

Wicked.

aaaaaaaaarg, just spent 2 hrs in hospital, trying hopelessly to get this pictures to load when i barely had any signal. i KNEW a topknot update would be good

Now i am home i can see it is, i much prefer the blades to the old ones. and as always i love seeing clay slinging going on

 

[xdmray]

i always love looking at your work. the blades are killer and probably what a preds blades should look like- a bit more tech-y.

i can't see where the blades will come out on the housing?

Hope evrything it's o.k with you and yours Lee.
Alpha: this is a great sculpt and an even more awesome improvement on the blades!
kick ass build! you get an 11 out of10 on the L.B. jalapeño scale.

 

[AlphaTech686]

Thanks all. They are made out of lexan and yes Coollekotten if I put a lock on the blades in the open position I think they could impale someone quite easy. I guess I gotta keep it lock free.

that thing looks fuggin MEAN as hell! I can picture a really buff predator sporting that one. Will they be up for sale?

 

[Elkman]

OK, I'm actually afraid of these things now. If I ever meet you at a convention, will you promise not to rip my neck open with those blades?

You were the one with the video on YouTube showing those blades springing open in about 5 milliseconds, weren't you?

 

[hez1]

Love it, and those blades are wicked looking.

 

[Skullsplitter]

You're gonna look like Gears of Predators! Awesome work, love the designs and how you have a personal touch to every part of the design instead of screen accuracy, truely a warriors trial.

 

[WhiskeyBeard]

Thats savage. Topknot has been the suit I've been wanting to see the most, by far.

Inspiring as always, Alpha.

[quinja]

Love the blades dude

 

[Darth Pinhead]

Damn, that looks lethal! I agree with xdmray with regards to the tech look. Hell, the chain-drive, alone, looks scary. Found the original video in the other thread; any updated video with the redesign?

 

[AlphaTech686]

I'll try to get a video up this week. By the way the chain is nylon/very lite. The motor is the heaviest part. It is still very comfortable to wear.
