Foam Zack’s MK VII Cross Core

[Zackurai]

I love those blades now.



Kicking around the idea of putting lights their as well, Inseen some shaders on infinite that add lights their and some on the butt plate and some on the thighs, kinda cool, sooooo Inthink I’ll add lights to all of those, might change my mind, might not, time will tell, anyway, I’ll tackle the rest of the biceps throughout the day

 

[Zackurai]

Progress will be slowing down, my nephews and nieces wanted some costumes made that’ll make their friends “Go wow!” 2 nephews and 2 nieces, they’ve been watching mandalorian lately soooo guess what they want, should be easy, I 3D printed mine but I think I’ll do foam, I’ll still be making this puppy of course, just slower than I’d like

 

[Zackurai]

Got most of the biceps done.



I will probably do some custom work for the middle parts, won’t see most of it anyway with the additional shoulder armor later on being attached to my bicep bits.

Here it is with some random lights I pressed onto it.



That’s about it for now, later

For foam, this looks amazing, love the idea.

For foam, this looks amazing, love the idea.

Hey!? What do you mean for foam?? Foam is life!

 

[Zackurai]

Here is the biceps all finished.



Guess while wait for more foam to come in Imma tackle one shoulder attachment, about all the foam I left for anyway, for one decided to go with a Mk V from the Mk V (B) armor I’ll upload a photo of it in a moment.

Something like this.

Looks to cover the entire bicep and most of the shoulder, so I will work on the scale for a little bit the get it going

 

[Alhoida]

Hey!? What do you mean for foam?? Foam is life!

I mean... I just 3d printed mine... I probably won't be good at foam.... I'm just saying good job.

 

[Zackurai]

Got the flat shapes ready to become a 3d shape.



I’ll get it attached up and sanded later on

 

[Zackurai]

Finished up that bit yesterday, nothing special really, just 3 shapes glued together.


And then went ahead and attached it to the bicep, was going to make it magnetic, but remembered my mando shoulders are magnetic and people bump into me and knocked them off, soooo attached to the biceps with contact cement x3 coats, should be solid



And applied foam clay on the seams, I’ll probably wait 3 days til I smooth it out, but that’s the current progress

 

[Zackurai]

Hello all, cranked out my right shoulder armor over the weekend, I’ll do the seam work once I’m able to make it keep its shape, this one is about 95% done.

Oh yeah, and this is from the Mk V(B) Security Shoulder.






Deciding if I will have the base version or the kukri’d version, dunno yet.

The tape is to help hold the shape of course I’ll probably leave it on for like 2 days then fill in any seam that I see, well I guess I’ll start working on my undersuit bits.

 

[Zackurai]

About 80% done with the undersuit so far, fairly simple build so far, but takes up a lot of foam.

Also very pic heavy. I’ll be finishing up the back piece of it and tackle that cool spine bit.

Anyway here is all my progress so far

 

[Zackurai]

Here’s the magic with foam clay after I let it dry for like 7 days which was not necessary, I just forgot it was on their til this morning and use some 600 grit to sand it smooth, still got some touch ups but it’ll get their



Anyway back to other stuff

 

[Zackurai]

Some more progress not much progress but it be progress.



I’ll get it glued up then maybe attach it to the undersuit or leave it off and put the spine bits on then attach to the under suit, not sure how to tackle it yet.

Anyway, back to it
