Wow... That height is going to be insane!  7'2" Arctic Predator is going to be intimidating! Love how you painted the bio helmet! I've never seen anything like it!

This looks awesome, my only complaint is the files attached instead of pictures every other post.

 

[ThePriest]

That's what i get for using my phone and then a regular camera the camera takes ****** pics but the phone sends  BMP files guess i nees a better camera for  X MAS . the foot is almost complete and on to the casting . there goes a weekend  ! send pics when i am done as usual.

I really like the detail on the foot. Very nice! Are you going to make the mold for this one before starting to sculpt the other or is it ready to mold as well?

Ok here is what i have been working on for this week so far .
i have made a few custom dread beads i am going to try my luck at some small silicone molds but for now here is the pics of the timer gauntlet i am putting a face plate with lights and countdown inside and here is the blade gauntlet ready to sculpt.

 

[wonko]

Fantastic work!  That blade looks mean as hell.  Are you gonna do resin gauntlets or latex?  Keep the updates coming!

[SkyBlazeHunter]

Looking great! I will keep an eye on this post ;-)

 

[dennybobbutt82]

Man this is looking bad ass can't wait to see it all done and hunting season is around the corner

 

[ThePriest]

ok here is what i have ready now . the gauntlet for the blade is now ready to go and my buddy made the string of lights for me . It has about 15 different modes and the lights can be turned up or down it came out way better than i thought now i have to get them mounted.

 

[BonzRus]

Love the blade gauntlet and where did your buddy get the lights from?

Steve

 

[ThePriest]

he works at a place that installs high end stereo and speaker systems and makes circuit board systems and hell yeah my sylicone just arrived i guess i will have to post some pics of the projects this weekend keep an eye out my hunters !!!

 

[ThePriest]

Here is a major update !!
I started on the other foot it is coming along very fast since i have a foot to look off of.
And my smooth-on silicone came in.
So i tried my luck at making some dread beads here is the process
I took a small cup and figured out how much i needed to fill it with the dread bead in the cup.
And i just mixed it up let it dry and pulled it out of the cup and cut it in the middle , not exact i left a low spot so i would know where to put it back together and filled it with resin making sure i had a fill hole and an air hole and there you have it my own personal dread beads now just 50more to make.
Now on to the gauntlet i installed the lights and painted it to match the bio helmet. And i installed the magnets to hold it together i also custom cut out the new gliphs and cut small pieces of pexiglass to fit on top of the lights.
Well that was my weekend i have more silicone coming along with 100 pds of ultra cal to finish this beast.I will post more when i get it done . Let me know what you think of the color scheme.
I will be working on the hands this week.

 

[BonzRus]

Looking really good! I like the color...I prefer color myself. Nothing says pred suits have to always be bland looking.   How about a video of the lights working in the gauntlet? That would be cool...I love to see progress updates like this. Keep it up.

Ok so here we go with the build i made a few props trying to learn the silicone process. So i made a small skull and would you believe it! It worked like a charm not bad if i don't say so myself. my hairs came in along with the lazers and the dread beads , so i shot some paint on them and getting them ready for some color i am not sure what color to paint them so feel free to throw up some ideas. Here is a few pics of the hairs installed so far. And i made the gauntlet that will hold the bad ass blade set up. It is ready for the blade to be installed and painted. that's all for now i will add some more pics tomorrow.

Hey Tony, I always forget about "W.I.P." Man this build is really coming along. That second foot isn't nearly as much fun as the first one is it? I would like to see some pics of the lift that is hiding in there. Everything is looking fantastic.
