Hi guys,

I recently re-watching the Small Soldiers movie and that instantly remember me my chilhood and the fever I had for this movie ! I was 8 years old when the movie came out and just after that I start sculpting Chip Hazard's head ! So just after re-watching this movie my desire to make a Chip Hazard came back, I start watching on the rpf guy's who made their own and I find a generous person who's gonna help me making my child dream ! Thank's you Desponds ;) in the future I will be making all the commando figures and all the gorgonite !

But I decide to make Chip as accurate as possible and I decide to start building in 3D all the part that I can't have ( or because those that I find are not enought accurate for me :) )
So here are the the gun, the radio and the grenade for chip. I use a lot of reference pictures and mesurements from the original props .
I wonder if you guy's can help me find all the mistake I make, tell me if you see default ! ( and if some of you have original prop like the one I'm making, can you please give the size of it and some really details pictures please ?)

So here the pictures :

Re: Small Soldiers

Cool. Will be sure to follow this one. Wish you the best of luck.
Though as I'm pretty good at nitpicking on details I have some issues with some of the proportions, but overall it looks good and will enjoy to follow this. Keep going.

Re: Small Soldiers! Chip Hazard first

Little news !
I receive 3D printed grenade today! I'm a little disappointed by the quality, I was expecting something more detail and smooth put I got this. I actually dealing with another company for better prints.

Re: Small Soldiers! Chip Hazard first

That looks Amazing!! Are you planning on selling any to the public or more replicators?

Yes I'm planning to sell but as a set, so all the Chip Hazard stuff together when I'll finish them : Grenade, gun, radio, rifle badge and maybe the x-1000

Re: Small Soldiers! Chip Hazard first

Hi guys, long time no see !

Do you know somebody that own an original chip hazard or a soft garage statue that I can be in contact with ? I need some precise measurement to start printing all my accesories for chip.

Other thing, I recently bought a soft garage insaniac that I will recast and transform into an action figure !
 
hello guys, it's been a while ^^

I recently found the time and the motivation to restart this project. And by restart I mean start from zero. I have the chance now to have access to alot of reference material and to original props. I then took on the task of 3D scaning then and remaking them in 3D. here are the different scan I started to work on, there's more but I haven't start working on them.

Here is a comparison betwen the scan of the original and a symetrical version of that scan (the orinals were sculpt by hand and were not symetric). The only thing that I will make different than the originals is adding symetrie to some parts (faces, arms, shoes, symbols). The heads on the right are the original ones and on the left are the symetric versions. I've also scan original arms and resculpted them.

And here are my reconstructed versions. I have only made 1 expression for chip but I have made all the movie version of kip's head (still need a bit of work)
