Arbiter Update 16: Maximum Smoothness..

[rachciav]

well in my world, terribly difficult means fun. so once the pieces are separted ill make it
and nice work on the helm. but why is it like part gray in some spots, is that from the rondo, i dont know much about that stuff, but from what ive seen and heard its really good.

Gray=Rondo
Black SPOTS= My spot putty mixture that I will not release unless I KNOW it works.
Black Areas= Primer to see what it looks like

 

[rachciav]

aaaaa interesting! id like to hear about that putty mixture if it ends up working.

 

[Keegan]

You will, you will.....

 

[pinkmasterchief]

sounds interesting....

 

[Keegan]

Well Im done smoothing it... smoothest thing Ive ever felt/seen.
PS. Is it just me or does the Arbiter helm look like a bird head?

 

[rachciav]

oooo very nice! i guess it looks kinda like a bird head...my middle school art teacher looked like a parrot. that just reminded me of her.

You should do the whole costume, using these:

yea i saw those before. but i dont think ill be using them, because i dont think ill have enough time.

Very Nice Stilts! I must consider the whole costume now that I have figured it all out. For the face, I plan on making a clothish mask that would look like the arbiter. Then I would use these stilts and wear a custom undersuit with those funky blue lines on it. No update for today, probably tomorrow or tuesday. I added more rondo because some areas are impossibile to sand so I am just redoing the top of the helm. The fangish things on the side are resined, so I will bondo those this week.

 

[rachciav]

yay! yea i was gonna make my undersuit out of those full body lycra suits and sew, or fabric paint on the blue lines. the face is really the only problem i see.
good to hear that you're planning on making the whole suit!

DANGGIT! That looks niiice!

[Keegan]

You could do something like this for the body/ head.

what was the scale that you used for the helm? im guessing its different from the other SPARTAN helms so i need to make sure and not waste paper and ink.

 

[sk8er4life]

Ohh, that looks perfect! I must do that for the underarmorish type thing I will be doing.

I used the default scale.

I dont know what you are talking about (seriously...) No I havent gotten my helmet, I got a response from Rob a week or so ago and he said it might take 3 weeks. I move in 2, so Im a bit worried.

Sick helmet man

I am actually done smoothing it now, as far as the top goes, I still have the prongs to do. Here are you pictures. I left a few areas around the edges to weather. But now I can guarantee you that it is as smooth as.... a, a, computer screen? Well, its very smooth I can tell you that. As smooth as it can get.
