first off i would like to say, you are amazing. second, would you recommend a gravity hammer for a first build, and third, about how much resin did it take to create this beautiful masterpiece?

This is one of dogwizard's kits. I don't know if he'll ever sell anymore in the future. As for a first timer's build? No. It was challenging enough for me and I've been doing some of these types of things for quite awhile. This is definitely the largest prop Ive built, and the size alone is what makes it difficult to work with. So I don't want to discourage you from anything, but this kit was definitely not an easy build. I don't know exactly how much resin he used, but it was a lot lol
Always keep in mind the practicalities of mounting something this end-heavy on a wall...I'd say just hang it straight up-and-down, with the head up, if possible.
A brute? I think I pondered it once, but I'd need to make it similar to how a chewbacca suit would be made. Remember, brutes are supposed to be up to 12 ft tall.
Ive actually wanted to make the brute chieftan headpiece as a wall mount w/ a "50 cal" hole in it...
here's a question that ether you or DogWizard might be able to answer.
i've been thinking about doing a hammer build for a long time now. i'm only confident in my peping skills. so i was wondering if you think that the pepakura hammer look possible to build. chances are i'd use the sliced blade.

I don't see why not. I'd make the main details out of the pepakura, but for say the main body, go with PVC tubing. I don't think it's impossible, but I can imagine it being a pain to build...
Oh it flexes, trust me. But it depends on how heavy you make the top portion. If it's incredibly heavy, you'll want PVC cause it can flex, where wood would typically buckle and snap if it is too heavy
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! It's so awesome. very WELL done
