And my scatter shot , yes I know felix doesn't use a scattershot but I don't want to take a dmr (I think that's wrong) because of safety reasons
My friend is printing it off

I don't know whyHey...that scattershot looks familiar.
And Wow, that cast looks nice. Your new cosplay is faaaaaaaaaaaar superior to your old one. Haha.
Anyhow, nice work!
Holy poop, that's awesome! That scattershot is crazy big! Will definitely be cool to see. And your helmet looks awesome after sanding. I saw that picture in the background and was like "Yeeeaaaaahhhh, look at that beauty." Put some primer on it!Ok time for a real update

Felix knife. I'm not to happy with the end result but it will do for now (it's just been plasti diped)

Shoulder. I free handed these from refrances pictures. There pretty close but i need to tweak the design a little more then they'll be good to go.... oh and I haven't started the actual shoulder armour yet
View attachment 248954 Boots. I started on the under armour part of the boot and also mase risers(I think that's the name) to give me more of a spartan stanceView attachment 248955 View attachment 248957
Hand plates. These I just free handed like the knife. I also added in some extra details because i was bored

Now the helmet I got this cast from icon props it's an amazing cast i was just really nit picky with air bubbles. Should mention that I enlarged the bubbles so epoxy putty would stick.

Between the helmet and the gun I've got a lot bout lod of sanding to do.....

I got a long way to go before primer.... got to get the electric stuff done fristHoly poop, that's awesome! That scattershot is crazy big! Will definitely be cool to see. And your helmet looks awesome after sanding. I saw that picture in the background and was like "Yeeeaaaaahhhh, look at that beauty." Put some primer on it!
And you remind me, I need to actually print some of my own stuff...I haven't yet, I think I will sometime soon, lol.
Yeah I was thinking about that today and was going to ask in discord but I don't have to now thanks. I'm just going to use thongs as the final layer..... wait by thongs I mean theseJust about the foam as shoe soles - be careful with it and test it, because foam can be slippery and you wouldn't want to slip and fall in your costume.
Better test it or you could try rubber as well.
Personally, I thought about using foam on soles, but I can't depend on it - I've seen people slip on EVA foam way too many times.
Sanding....nightmares?!? Ooohhhh, scary.View attachment 249657
Small update... more body work done..... I'm starting to have nightmares about sanding
It actually wasn't too hard I just used a air tools grinding bit (the photo) in my drill and a chisel.Sanding....nightmares?!? Ooohhhh, scary.
Nice job gutting that scattershot. Impressive to say the least. That looks like it would have been a pain in the butt. Well done.
