Hi Lurx here! Im back!
It all started for some years ago with my first build: a mark VI suit (still not complete)
I live in sweden - europe, so its hard to find all the products that you guys use over there in USA
Ive had alot of try and fail errors and now finaly I think im up to something that works over here.
Now its the time to choose something to build and I want to build something really complicated with a bunch of electronics, vacuum forming, pepakura and everything just mixed up in a big pile of.. guano?!
its the epic helmet of Guy Manuel from daft punk that will be my "first" project (discovery era)
To my help I have 2 selfbuilt "machines, an easy vacuum forming table for visors and an "oven" for the pep to harden a bit faster and to get rid of the smell a bit faster
Im moving to a new and better space for my "prop" work in december and hopefully there will be alot of more pics from there then!
------------------------------------
Now the upload of all the pics on my project!
------------------------------------
Pepakura stage:
Resin Stage:
Fiberglass and Rondo and Fiberglass with some red acrylic paint just so I could tell where I already have been:
Some detailwork! (this parts will be sent to a buddy of mine so he can cut this in wooden- or fiberglass sheets with CNC)
Started out to solder a DIY LED Kit and build Housings for it (temp out of cardstock, I will use thin plastic for the final housings)
Bondoed the "visor" and sanded it down, and well it looks pretty damn good! (still not satisfied but it all comes together slowly)
I just had to give it a try
thats it for now!!
