shiznit! that looks amazing, good job! :dee:

 

[Adam]

someone did a great job with it anyways....

I'll mold it as soon as I get some molding supplies in.

 

[WanderingRon1n]

what is your next step?

 

[Adam]

silicon mold, cast in plastic, paint, detail, add barrel and flashlight, shoot covenant.

really nice work, is that balsa wood? how did you get all the grooves and everything done?

 

[Masterchiefy]

Cool

 

[xalener]

how did you mirror it?
(get it so symmetrical?)

 

[Silverzippo93]

That is some great carving.
:bow:

 

[Adam]

well, here's the first cast. Cast was good, then I royally screwed it up with the paint job.

I think what I'll do next time is cast it with black pigment, and then add the details. Black paint always comes out shiny for some reason, even when I buy flat.

adam, thats sooo nice

 

[Spartan 110]

looks great adam!

 

[Chuck 126]

I can't tell... is that black with silver detailing or is it solid black but with a lot of glare? If it's the former, I kind of like it.

Second, is that solid resin? If so, how much does it weigh?

And finally, will you be making these available to others?

 

[Adam]

here's the texture (that I hate)

 

[Leadingspartan]

wow pretty good though

 

[WanderingRon1n]

i like the gun but it has that "just painted" texture is that what you mean.

 

[Damien]

i like it, looks battledamaged, way to fix=lotts of primer/fine sanding

 

[FinAeros]

Question about the wood sculpt.... Was it by chance done in a five axis machine?

 

[Damien]

also looks like it is brushed steel

Wow. Purely, just wow. Looks amazing Adam! IMHO, I like the brushed gunmetal look, adds that ole' scuff look. :mrgreen:
