Tomvdog's W.i.p.

[tomvdog]

Ok so I thought I would start my own W.I.P. so maybe I could get some good advice or maybe some tips and I would love to here some of your criticisms. Feel free to tell me what you really think. Here is what I have so far. Ill put in it chronological order.

Started the pep.

After Fiberglass and Resin

Bondoed and Primed

Painted

LIghts

Now sorry for the crappy pics but my cameras not working so these are from my iPhone.

 

[tomvdog]

Oh yeah here is the start of my chest.

Caboose's helm! :lol



Awesome a H3 Mark V. That helmet looks great, but I think its missing some vents in the front. The chest looks a little warped. I dont know if its the lighting or if its because its sitting on that thing. It looks like it was built well though. Keep up the good work!

Wow, fantastic job on the helm! I can't get over how smooth it is! Keep up the great work! (Do you intend to use the same scheme as in your sig?)





Cheers!



Oh, and COLOR!?!?!?!

 

[Burke]

Yeah same as my sig except for the left shoulder will be CQB instead of EVA.



Thanks for all the positives guys.

wow, your helmet looks pretty darn good man. How long did it take you to pep the chest?

 

[Nobody]

Looking good, keep it up

 

[tomvdog]

Sorry its been awhile I've been busy at school anyway Ive been working on my spartan laser and chest getting ready to bondo both. I'll post some picks later today once I take them I got my new camera so they will be better then before.

 

[rdwombat]

Looks great man. I cant wait to see the progress!!

 

[tomvdog]

Ok so this update is super week and I apologize but I said I would do it and Im a man of my word. I will also have a better update tomorrow Ill be spending most of the night bondoing and sanding so my chest should be looking a lot better then in the pic. But let me know what you guys think and I've spent maybe like an hour on the spartan laser and its my favorite weapon so don't make fun of it to bad cause I know it looks like crap right now. It will be epic I guarantee!!

My work space right now (oh and it laundry day)

Spartan Laser

Cheers, Dave.
