My Progress

[Overlord Ian]

Hey guys just wanted to show my progress, Im sure many of you remember my crappy crappy armor that i previously posted, but kepp in mind i only had 3 weeks to make it. Anyway, heres the good helmet ive been working on for a couple months, plus my energy sword, the sword isnt finished though, and the helmet doesn't have a visor. sorry, this is kinda pic heavy. Sorry for bad pictures, it really does look a bit better in person, and of course, its not finished, it still needs leds, detail painting, and the "tube-things" on the cheeks.

I just figured this would be the best place o put it, since the helmet isnt the world's best, it still needs a ton of work

thanks man yours is going to turn out good just keep working on it and sanding and detailing

oh one tick that works really good if you use bondo mix small amounts of bondo and take your finger and put it on where you want to add detail this trick works good ware some surgical gloves if you dont want to get your hands messy but bondo comes off your hands easy any who cant wait to see your new armor done keep it up

looks pretty good ,the only thing i would recommend is more detail.

Yea, i addd the details to the brim and the "cheeks" after i took these pics, and the low quality cell-phone camera kind of ruins the detail anyway

Your sword looks pretty sweet. Although shouldn't it be longer?

 

[Overlord Ian]

the blade is about 4 feet, its just too wide i think..

you should really try 2 sheets of plexy glass and get some fiber optic LED's but hey it looks good from just scratch

Yea, this is acctually just a prototype sword, im gonna make another with EL wire (like Sean's sword)

Not bad, looks pretty good! However, the sword does look a little bit "chunky". Otherwise, looks pretty good!
