Looking good Dean, what materials are you using and also at what scale is that?.

I could'nt tell you what the scale is sorry Horsell. I've been modelling for over 20 years now and you'd think I would know . It's taller than a 1/6 scale figure model but that don't mean anything .
The material I used is like expanding foam but a lot more dense . Once I carved it to shape I skimmed it over with car body filler to get it ssmoooooooth.
The legs are going to be a mixture of resin and aluminium (think I spelt that right ).

Looking good so far. 18-20 inches? That's quite large! I'd love to see how it turns out. Do keep us posted. |
