Robocop: The Original for Pepakura **8/29 1st post update, foam glove**
Re: Robocop: The Original for Pepakura
Thanks for the support!
@usajdm- Still haven't found the owner of this motorcycle, wish I could to get proper permission for a build1
@joeart- It will be a while before any pepakura files are ready.
I also had some people asking me about the modeling and it's accuracy to film/ etc.. so I hopefully I can clear this up a little:
1- Different suits (6 or 7?) were used through all three of the original Robocop movies, so generally speaking there is no single 'robocop' design. I am taking cues from the second movie's primary suit, because I like the details and it had a lot of improvements in manueverability from movie 1.
2- This is an initial model for eventual Pepakura. Some details will be kept, while others may be omitted to make the Pepakura easier. I'm working with 2d images, not previous 3d models or toys, and I do adjust parts to make them more fit-friendly. I can always change things later.
3- I am modeling out the opening leg holster mechanism, but I have NO IDEA how well it will fit into a worn leg yet. I want it too of course, but I need to finish general scale modeling before I can work out details like that.
Thanks for checking out my work so far.

There are a couple out there that I've picked up. Both were proportioned pretty poorly, just bad to me. I will probably start on the new helmet model tomorrow, it's fairly straightforward and will look A LOT BETTER than the helmet posted above. Cheers!

I FOUND THE BIKE!!
It's a 1930 Henderson (I *knew* I had seen it somewhere before!)
Read about it here: Art deco custom motorcycle
My grandfather had a Henderson (don't know if it was one of these) for a short time. A four-cylinder beast!
Sorry for the hijack, but the bike was causing the thread to warp from all of us drooling.

That pic makes an old Robocop fan feel very happy! The job you do is.. I don't know how to say it but: AMAZING!

At 6'2" the narrow torso point is 35.5". The lower torso can slide in and out of the chest section, and this will allow a lot of extra adjustment for both torso length and diameter. The arms,legs, gloves and feet will also be separately scalable in Pepakura. The shins might get a little tricky; a two-piece is pretty much a guarantee.
**edit** those measurements are torso interior, and 6'2" compensated for helmet and shoes**
...coming along slowly...
What size person will this fit (based on your current scale)? I'm just over 6'2", and weigh 208 lbs. I have a bit of a paunch, but I figure I could either get a compression top, or build the abdomen to work as a corset
