Ah welcome back Tony, good to see you with us again. The sculpt is looking nice man and loving the fact it's getting pink gooed now. Can't wait till the next step in this epic endeavour.
Keep up the good work,
Tom.
Thank you Tom! Neither can I, I anticipate that the main sculpt will be molded over the course of next week. I have to work it around my full time job, so hopefully I have something impressive to show in the next two weeks
Looking good Tony!
When done, what material were you planning on casting this puppy out of? (poly, rubber, foam)
Dave.
Well, the first casting will definitely be made of Urethane resin. I originally intended to make straight resin busts, but since then I have been playing with the idea of trying to make flexible castings.
The real question is, is he going to put some animotronics to make it move. BTW, great job Tony!
Thank you CoolC, this has crossed my mine. However, I have an extremely limited understanding of this. But, I’ve been reading a lot. I guess we’ll see…lol
That would be sweet. I did ask a while back if he was and he said he is clueless in the field but maybe we could get some super kind member that has the know how to donate some for it
LOl, True. Or, Maybe when the time comes. And this is a big if, because I don’t know if it will be possible, but we all join forces and make and Elite suit a reality. I would never be able to do it on my own and I’m too short to be an elite. I would think someone would need to be fit, 6’4” to 6’6” to pull it off properly and on my best day I can achieve 5’6”…lol
Looks awesome. I've been watching on FB for updates and I forgot all about looking here for an update. I have it subscribed now to fix that.
Thank you Thorn, I’m happy you continue to watch my slooooow progress. Be good my man.
Update:
Okay guys, I just want to update everyone on the molding Process. Looks like my mandibles turned our good. SO, check it out!!!
Yuck! My hands are filthy!!
I still have to demold the other two, but I’m hopeful they came out well too. With that said, All I have to do is touch up a spot where they meet with the Elite head and I will then mold that bad boy. Wish me luck guys!
Tony
