It has a post-apocalyptic look. I like the idea of making a prop for no reason and later finding it's perfect for some purpose. Love this channel so much!!

@createscifi Год назад

thx !

@ediesedgwick4462 Год назад

I can't wait for you to release Wakener! I can't wait to see all your great builds on screen!

So Modeling Weekly put out a video called "5 tips for saving money as a modeller!" one of them was that you can use cellulose thinner from the hardware store as a replacement for Tamia extra thin plastic glue, that a good option for bonding polystyrene and some other plastics in the future. Also if you want a more baroque Metabarons esq look to something like this you can get a decorative perforated metal at the hardware store (for vent covering I think) that would serve the same purpose as the round perforated plate or the granny grating.

@SandraOrtmann1976 Год назад

I can 100 % confirm the epoxy versus superglue thing. I had my Mandalorian gauntlet held together with superglue. During trooping, several bits and pieces came loose. Luckily, nothing went missing. Somebody in our group recommended using epoxy glue instead of superglue. I never heard of it before, so I googled it and got some. I now use epoxy glue for that kind of glueing, will never go back. I used Apoxy Sculpt (excellent, very tough air-drying modelling clay) a lot for statues and action figures, but if you put a little here and there, things become really heavy. So I did not use that for my armour parts. But superglue has a tendency to give in in the very worst moments.

coolo thx!

What Darth Vader would have looked like if Roger Corman directed Star Wars. All kidding aside, great build.

I did something similar back in the mask days using a paint ball helmet and skull mask... i have a couple safety helmets and a halloween gas mask mask that may need to have a comin together party... great build as usual

@createscifi Год назад

thx !

@andrewdrabble8939 Год назад

Brilliant stuff, had a Blake's 7 vibe about it. We don't have Harbour Freight here in England (at least not yet anyway lol) and we do have your equivalent to the Dollar store called Poundland but they don't usually stock stuff like that and things online can be a bit expensive. Still a great job though

@MartinDolan Год назад

I was just about to say it had a distinct Blake's 7 vibe when you first held the mask to the helmet! Awesome

@createscifi Год назад

cool have to check that out

@tlynch918 Год назад

Inspired! Somehow you manage to spontaneously create what others would spend years agonizing over! Awesome!

That's a great looking classic ScFi helmut. Your prop making skills always entertain and inform. Thanks for sharing the process . About two weeks ago I came across those knitting squares at Hobby Lobby. I picked up two of the silver color pieces. Not a damn clue what I'm going to make with them but I have them lol.

@createscifi Год назад

@createscifi Год назад

@Riceball01 Год назад

Very nice,, you did a great job, a bit busy for my tastes, but great job never the less. I n the past few years or so, I've really gotten into junk crafting; thanks to a co-worker, I now start collecting all sorts of random bits and pieces with the idea that I might use them something down the line. Regarding Harbor Freight, even if there isn't one nearby, you can order from them online. But, it might be cheaper to just order something similar from Amazon. BTW, here's a technique that I like to use a lot for weathering, particularly when I want to simulate paint of finished that's been gradually rubbed off over time. What I do is , after rpiming, I spray a base coat of silver (or gold if you want the base "material" to be gold or brass), Then once you're done painting whatever color or colors you want the object to be, I'll then go over the areas that I want to look worn with a piece of 0000 steel wool. I go over it lightly and it will gradually sand away the top coat and start exposing the base coat underneath. The great thing about this technique is that it's really easy to control the amount of the amount of base coat you want showing. And, in my opinion, it gives a very realistic worn/rubbed off look to the are that you've sanded because the steel wool is fine enough that it doesn't leave any tell tale sanding marks.

@TheDeepDiveLLC Год назад

Nice! I actually dig the blue. Thought it came out well with that quilting mesh, especially around the corners of the helmet.

@createscifi Год назад

thx !

@BigEpinstriping Год назад

The end result reminds me of the headgear worn by the Terran Federation (bad guys) in Blake's 7. Actually, yours looks way better, but it give off the same vibe.

@createscifi Год назад

gotta check it out someone else mentioned that thx !

@mangomatt1 Год назад

Lovin' what you do. I have been inspired to buy a bunch of toy guns to try and build a blaster.

Great build and that's a hell of a great logo for UCE

@scottmantooth8785 Год назад

*if you ever have a need for it fragments of chainmaile can add a nice niche texture to any costume or post apocalyptic dystopian dieselpunk setting...i've used #10 split ring washers in the past and have several chains made of it using double link assembly techniques...have to be careful about not getting it near the face or eyes as the zinc oxide plating can flake off and that's not good..but there are sites that sell the premade rings and are professionally made and reliable and available in many sizes and materials*

The two nubs on the forehead of the helmet give it a WW1 German Helmet vibe; very cool, and like something from the artist, Enki Bilal. Dirty Candy; like Gutter Candy.

Love the helmet. What are your thoughts on E-6000? I think in a lot of cases it's better than superglue although not as good as epoxy but no mixing. Think it would hold up well for your projects?
