Re: Made007 War Machine

Its looking awesome..what scale did you end up going with the cod piece?..keep up the work i know its hard work to work with fiberglass and bondo i do know a little of that myself..i do body work also..that's a little advantage that we have i guess..lol..

I just went and check the scale for you, its 1.72, but im a 30" -32" waist, keep that in mind, i thought i used the default but i remembered that tip from mssleeper about the scales and i played a little with the scale factor on this, it fits me right

Nice build bro!!! hey what scale did you use on your torso? I re-do mine 1.79 that way my big head fits through the space I made; hopefully this is the last one I have to do...

That's so time consuming..the hands...looks like you have everything mixed..i would try to keep everything separate like i mixed mine up and took long to figure out what was what..specially some finger parts look a lot like knuckles part..the round parts...well good luck on the hands....

Re: Made007 War Machine

You're going to cut it apart right? or widen the hole?

Re: Made007 War Machine

I think im going to leave it like that, its like a jacket! I think i dont need to cut parts that i could just get in easy

I had to make mine a little bigger to be able to fit my big head, and actually is allowing me to get in like a t-shirt sort of way. since I'm adding some more details o the side of it and plenty of padding I think would look ok I guess....

if you can do that, it will be a lot less headaches. and you'll have a solid torso to hold the minigun, which is a nice bonus.

And im going to add some padded supports on the inside, they will be attach to my body so whe i turn the torso turns with me, that way ill have more movement in my armor, i am also designing some mechanism for the abs, i want them with movement too
