woah that emile build and jorges gun looks beautiful! keep up the good work!
First coat of paint is on! The details really stand out a lot better now, don't worry everyone the flash hider, ammo counter, and scope are going to be made separately i didn't forget :) The paint is still wet so I didn't flip it over for more pics.
thanks! I'm gonna fix those rough spots with drywall spackle, I did it on my locus helmet and it seemed to turn out well, Would you happen to know if plasti dip in a rattle can will eat foam like spray paint will? because I'm afraid if i just seal it with wood glue like I usually do it will fill...
So i started making the halo 4 dmr today, after about 8 or 9 hours of work this is the result. I'm using insulation foam like AndrewDFT on youtube but instead of carving into a piece of 2" foam I started out with 1/2 inch foam and added layers. this makes the crisp, clean edges of each layer...
it looks great! for the cracks and crevices (especially the point on the forehead) use MH drywall spackle. it comes in a orange and black container similar to a small paint can. it molds and sands easily and also bonds to foam really well
That looks awesome man! I love how you have the armor secure together! I've been looking for a way to secure the hinges on mine and this technique seems perfect for what i'm doing! Thanks!
here are some progress pics. i only have it before i painted. I used insulation foam to build this commission, inspired by DaFrontlineTrooper's techniques
