The ring in the screencap all sides appear more or less equal while the one you posted is not. The $10 one is longer than it is wide. While it could be made into a fast piece for cosplay, it wouldn't be accurate no matter how much paint was applied.
i disagree.
since they can play 15 minutes of paintbrush for the movie costume, i can for the movie ring.

for some reason that ring has never photographed what it actually looks like. it is a little squat.

Actually that ring was worn by Hal in the comics. The ring changed a few times with various artists. It's the costume that's the big change.BTW I would have also perfered the signet style ring but this one is still true to the comics.
Solid and Gas is not that hard - Del Taco will help achieve it, Hal.

A 4 axis mill. They come in pretty handy when machining ring patterns.
Yeah. When you're a fan of a particular title, you have to deal with artistic license when there are multiple pencillers. However, ^that^ style of ring was usually drawn for the other Lanterns; I liked Hal's being different:Actually that ring was worn by Hal in the comics.

(From one of the most awesome storylines ever; issue #49, where Hal basically becomes a god)

That's one of the rings I made a few years ago during a short run here. I put up a tutorial here that includes the glowing version:

thats the new honor guard ring. its alot closer to that one, than the kyle ring.
do we all agree? i can paint green on the face of that one like i did the other one if you want.

That's definitely closer to the screencap although those can be misleading until we can see the prop in an up-close clear setting. By the way, did you have to be so sarcastic in your post? If being disagreed with upsets you, you might be in the wrong place here.

The movie ring's face looks like it may have a texture to it - like an ice carving, which would make sense considering they are going for an 'organic' look for the suit.
It looks a lot like the Honor Guard ring that is on presale right now, but I suspect there WILL be a licensed replica of this ring at some point.
Hopefully we get some better shots of this ring real soon. I've been waiting pretty impatiently for the first movie photos to be released and I'm already thirsting for more!
The last time I was this excited about a movie was Episode III....

I just hope the film is good,Green Lantern was a fav of mine as a kid.....but lemme be honest here-DC pretty much sucks ass at getting their characters on screen,Marvel is tromping them :unsure
BTW I just want to slide an idea to you prop makers for the rings from the firearms side of things-tritium,a low radioactive material which glows for fifteen to twenty years,would make a good insert for a GL ring.

yeah, tritium is awesome. I have a Luminox watch. I have been wanting a "One Ring" with tritium under the elvish for some time now.
