Hey guys, sorry for not dropping by more frequently, I am trying to avoid the internet a bit at the moment to increase my productivity.
If you urgently need/want/are Jedi mind tricked into contacting me, please just drop me an e-mail. I check those regularly, contrary to PMs on several boards, facebook or shapeways. Sorry for the inconvenience...
On another note:
I tweaked his ear antennas a bit, so they are looking like the ones on the far right version now rather than the middle one or the left render. The connection bits on his mask have sockets, so you can attach some rubber hose/cable. I had thought about making the segments of the tubes to just slide them over a rubber tube, but decided against it in the end. It would be too expensive to print all the little segments and a crazy lot of work to assemble it. There sure are better alternatives for that, plastic tubes like the ones used for architecture models and scratch building cut into slices would probably be the more economical, easier and more useful solution I reckon.
I also sculpted the chest piece Edrio ( and many other pilots ) wears but don't have a render of it on this PC, so will upload it at a later point. Anyway, it's just a box with a few buttons and switches really.
I am considering sculpting the rifle too, still undecided and not really sure it's worth the time, let me know if you think it is. I just don't want to put one or two days of work into it just to sell two copies in the end.
The head is up on shapeways already and I can print a few here on Stevens printer too.
As for the Tessek hands, I simply forgot about them and will try to tweak them once I have some time for it.
And next up will be Pao and the cool alien blokes from the fifth element, really looking forward to those!
