Re: Made007 War Machine

Looks great! Are you going to attach the back jet flaps permanently, or are you planning on motorizing them?

Re: Made007 War Machine

I dont know, my biggest concern right now its motorizing the faceplate, but i dont have any experience with servos, so i have to do some research first, and i want to motorize the minigun and for the fore arms i have something in mind too, but i think they will look cool motorized

Re: Made007 War Machine

Now to the left bicept and abdomen

Re: Made007 War Machine

Now its starting to look like a war machine helmet, still needs a lot of work, i need to work on that huge gap on top of the faceplate, and i just noticed the sides need to be a little wider, also i need to cut where i marked with the sharpie, and lots of sanding and priming, enjoy

Re: Made007 War Machine

I have a palm sander for big areas and a dremel tool, but most of the sanding i do it by hand with 40 grit and 80 grit, after i get the shapes right i go down to 100

Looks better, need a few touch ups

Re: Made007 War Machine

looks great man. It really makes a huge difference when a guy really knows how to use polyester filler. And using USC products doesn't hurt either, LoL. Are you using Feather Fill for this?
