The first bicepts came out of the mold today.
Everything in the pic is all still part of the “test” build. I’m using this to work out the building bugs. Nothing in this shot will be part of the final costume , this mannequin is just for testing materials and sizing. It’s almost a shame that these pieces won’t be used.

Looking good man!

The gauntlets are next.
This ones almost ready to mold. Just a few more touch ups to go one this primer coat dries back in a day or two.

 

[stony props jim]

As I mentioned everything up to this point has really just been test and practice pieces.
I learned a lot from them.
Here’s the start of one of two final under suites. I’m starting at the neck and working down.

Hey if you could not do such amazing work with your undersuit and make me look bad, that'd be great.

Deep scrapes?

Deep scrapes?

I believe they are inquiring about the damage on the helmet.

Oh and....dear sweet lord, that gauntlet!

For the deep scratches i use a Dremel tool and grind them into the resin.

Thata it?!?! Just multiple passes? Wow. I thought the helmet was 100% titanium steel and you went through hell and back, and then after serious depression, repeatedly hit your head into a wall. That looks so good! I wish my process of running and stomping rocks into my foam turned out good like this! But now that we have lavarock....(sharp like glass and pokey everywhere), maybe I can do something "natural"...


That dremelwork is great! I would definitely got carried away and do too much

I’ll post pics of what I do to scar them up.

Calf’s.
Right and left prototypes are finished and the molds were successful. Here’s the first test pole from the mold and also my test paint pieces as well.

 

[stony props jim]

FF a bit - Finished enough to wear but not quite fully complete.

 

[stony props jim]

I should have posted these as before the last pic, These were my TEST paint pieces. The finished ones have a lot more scrapes and gouges in them. I went with a bit of a carbon fiber look on all of the components.
