Here are some pictures from Prop Store of London's Dredd 3D auction. I hope these can help with the customs.

Awesome customs.

A trick with the visor: paint it smooth flat black, then hit it with green transparent paint. That should give it the right look. Just make sure the black is smooth before applying the green.

 

[skooternb]

Yeah, I think I'm gonna remove the black gloss I put on it and file it down super smooth and repaint.

I used a dark metallic then coated it with a few layers of a clear smoke colored glaze. I use the same method when making sunglasses. Works well.

I think imma do the same..Thanks for the tip TMG!...

SKOOT: What are you going to use to remove paint? And how are you going to file it down? Sandpaper?

This sounds rather interesting too. Got any pictures of that? Sounds like it works well, so now there are two options.

Tekkaman Blade: can you share the paint brand for those colors? Trying find them online..thanks!

 

[Bliz]

Any seen the 1/6 Karl Urban Dark Soldier? While it is a cool fig on its own I think it would be a perfect base....

Wanted to keep this thread going


Jacket and Vest on TTM19:

This would be perfect if it had the puffy jacket (or collar) Anyone working on that, or can we get someone to make a run of em?

 

[SchmittyJames]

I'm thinking about just sculpting mine. I already made one but it was too small, V.2 coming up!

 

[Tekkaman Blade]

Smoke is Tamiya x-19.
I can't remember which metallics I used as I mixed them, it was a dark silver and blackened steel from reaper.

I have pictures at the beginning pages of the thread. I'll be posting more when I get the Anderson armor.

Personally I removed the sculpted visor on mine and replaced it with a piece a black glossy film.

I think it looks more realistic.
