Mel looks very realistic! Between Mel and your amazing Harrison Ford, I'd be in geek heaven.

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

gah!!! what are you making for Joel????!!!

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

Will be making most of his weapons, then moving on to Ellie. Eventually I will make the heads. I have the game models for reference only as the geometry is too messy to work with, so have to build everything from scratch. Here's an accurate Joel gas mask.

Hey Gruff, haven't worked on him for a while. Though I did make him look younger and started blocking out hair.

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

Very nice work on Joels mask!!. Looking forward to seeing the rest

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

SpaceGladiator: Looking good! Who made the legbrace?

boshi: Cheers man. The gas filter was inaccurate and I have since changed it. Working on the Hunting Rifle next seeing as there are zero 1/6 deer hunting rifles out there like most of their weapons.

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

Yeah Jons work is great! If I fail to make it myself he's the first port of call. The belt looks really nice, not seen one with the proper stitching. Who made that?

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

Snap! I'll always give it a go myself first, then look elsewhere... that's my harness & my gear (all done by me)

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

Wow! Good work on that! I may have to have a go at hand-stitching the pattern in myself after seeing this

Tips:- keep quiet about developing ur embroidery skills ...it doesn't get as many 'cool points' as a Rahmier paint job or an Inigo sculpt - no idea why!?

Hand stitching is 10 cool points above a nice paint job always bro

I'll take that compliment, coming from the master himself

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

I'm impressed by your pattern stitching, and by the clips. Those things are tough to source. As for coolness factor, hang out in a Kato thread. That man is James Dean COOL.

Thanks! Reference a Sam Browne belt WW1 era.

Gruff Old Bear - Um, I'm a bit reluctant... last time I hung out with the cool kids:

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

I spent a few hours experimenting with detailed hair techniques. I still can't figure Mels hair in this movie, it's a chaotic mess that changes from scene to scene. Not sure if this is too neat, even bordering Thunderdome!

Re: CUSTOMIZINGS: Road Warrior

Personally, I would love a Thunderdome version. It hasn't been done yet!
