looks good Dorgs! You might even consider using Hasbro thighs as well, pretty much perfect I think... except for the small thin flat part running up the middle...instead of a triangle it extends all the way to the top of the armor... here's pics of groin/ legs

and you could probably sculpt just one knee pad, they look the same on each side to me...

I think the toughest part for you will be the belly/groin armor, looks kinda like a six pack!

you know, I think you'll have to end up re-selling that GG bust, you kinda need the DC-17m blaster rifle and everything, along with the special backpack bits for Fixer and Scorch... and the sniper ammo shoulder piece for Sev and the DC-17m sniper attatchment... You could just cycle through all the busts, selling each one after you finish working on it then moving on to another...

I think it'd be awesome if you made "deluxe" kits, with DC-15s pistol, DC17m blaster, sniper, and anti-armor attatchments, Fixer and Scorch backpacks (or backpack attatchments), and Boss, Fixer, and Sev shoulder pads along with the regular armor... oh yeah and Fixer has 2 antennae attatched to his right earpiece...from that kit you could make any commando you wanted! You should consider doing this Dorgs....

Just doing a rough cast of the chest armour, gonna be pants but it will give us an idea, piccs in 30 mins

 

[Crimsonbob]

Aye it would be cool, but they only made 500 or so of some and 1000 odd of the others. The ones that are still around are going for silly money now as well £100+ mainly, and sets of all 4 going for about £400.

Ok Dorgs oh and i sent ya a little something

Well, Dorgs has one bust now, when he's done with it why can't he sell it back for enough silly money to get the next one?

LOL that would be really cool, but you know me if this whole thing is not made in 2 months I will get distracted by all the other totally amazing stuff going on LOL

lol aye true and tbh im not bothered about 100% accuracy, i just like cool looking armoured figs

 

[the dude person]

well, I'm sure for some things you could make em yourself... like fixer's antennae would be easy, also his shoulder pad looks easy:

you could just smooth over a shoulder with clay, add a rectangle and draw some lines in it....

maybe I'll have to get meself a bust and do the DC-17m, too bad they're so expensive tho...

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

its the guns that are gonna be tricky mate!.


Mould done... piccs in a mo

Oooh you done it yay :chew

 

[Chakaman]

Good stuff, looks fab!!

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

gonna cast it in plaster then remould it I think. Dont know if I should keep the fangs at the bottom or have them as part of the abs.

What do u guys think?

 

[Ryan1982]

yup!

you should trim the extra part, make the abs separately as the bellyplate. Lower parts colored red so you can see the distinction better

Abs i reckon m8 otherwise when you turn his waist it will be all skewiffy.

actually, the game model bends stretches and distorts there, oddly enough ... but realistically it is part of the abs

EDIT:

sorry, couldn't resist... it seems to be some sort of rodent

 

[the dude person]

any updates? I'm not gonna wait all week until Saturday for 'em! cuz then there's easter and stuff...

hurry up Dorgs!
