Haji's Odst

[Akjefa]

I think the helmet looks great.

 

[Burk]

Wow, I didn't think it was going to look that good when I first started to read this thread.



You are doing great. Keep up the great scratch build.

 

[haji]

thanks guys, i wish i had a camera that took pictures in megapixels. Its looking better in person. I took it to ebgames to set it as a display. over heard pretty good comments (didnt claim it though).... except the one snobby group of kids, you know... the ones with the tight polos and fitted caps worn at a angle? "That looks like s**t haha put it on... does iz look sexy?"



didnt bother me, i know they couldnt do anything better, besides.... it was a work in progress peice.





armor construction:

I didnt use enough resin on the armor peices, there still a little flimsy when i went to go work on it today. Also, the sun has not shined for 3 weeks now and the body filler wont completely cure and its messing up my sand paper instantly.



I still need

-jewlers/filers

-Sanding mouse. My sanding wheel is to hard to control

 

[haji]

These updates are almost pointless, all the cleaning and sanding ive done just doesnt show with a webcam....

Battle rifle i recently started on

Should be making a mold within the month of the helmet... I hope. I have a 2 day break from college so im going to use that towards prop making time.



oh! I have to head up to Mcmaster store up in atlanta and purchase the plastic for the visors and i will do visor runs upon request (wish i had something to show)





Still need



-Mouse sander/ palm sander

-New dremel (mines just stopped working again, this time for good)

-Jeswlers/filers

-More primer

-INVESTMENT IN A QUALITY CAMERA!!
