| Post subject: | Pred Costume progress |
hi all My Predator costume is coming along so I thought I would share some pics with you. I have glued everything to a spandex undersuit but have yet to fill any gaps where I made cuts for mobility (cough belly cough). [img]http://www.friendly-skies.co.uk/images/tempphotos/pred2.jpg[/img] And this is my "Don't look at me I'm shy pose" [img]http://www.friendly-skies.co.uk/images/tempphotos/pred3.jpg[/img] I have to give a HUGE thanks jediUsurper for his paint work on the head and body suit ( as well sculpting the head as well of course) Still got to paint the armour pieces and waiting on the shoulder armour and cannon in the post. Appreciate your feedback guys. Cheers Darren |

Nice! Now put your USCM armor on over that!  Very cool. Are you getting a cannon with servos and all that, or static? Russ

As far as animatronics, sounds etc go I am planning to just get the costume put together first and then I will slowly add things like servos for the shoulder cannon and sound and light on the gauntlets etc. Cheers Darren |

Saw the paint job on the mask up close and it is amazing. I particularly like the quills above the eyebrows. Looking forward to seeing the finished article.

I'm not sure a Pred Marine would make it past the application process, but with wrist blades on, I'm not sure anyone would question him. So where did you get the suit parts from? Other than the head. |

The body suit is from Dan Snyder, the feet/neck collar are from Monster room and the hands I picked up from a guy called Seahunter on the Lair board. Not sure if they are actually his sculpt or just some that he had spare though. Cheers Darren |

The dreads are from Bambooie. They hang really nice and swish around great (just like in a shampoo ad) Darren |

Hi Bri thanks bud. The costume is fairly comfortable to wear yeah but man is it HOT. I had it on for like 10 minutes when I took the photos above and I was sweating buckets. Of course that could be due to my general lack of fitness of course LOL. Much better now that it is on the spandex suit but i am still in 2 minds as to wether to make it a 2 piece suit or leave it as it is in one piece. As a one piece I dont need to worry about the legs slipping downwards but it is slightly awkward to get it all on. Cheers Darren |

I wore the alien for over an hour the other night and was ROASTING! lol! I found that if I press down on the ribs section it gives me a burst of cool air! (Not sure how though?) lol Practice taking it on and off. You will eventually get it on and off to suit your needs! I can now get the Alien ribs section off myself without any damage! Takes practice! But does come in handy! If you make it a 2 piece set - you could add braces to the legs as if they were trousers! Then apply the upper half. Would be comfortable also.I can't wait to see this completed! Always good to see a P1 costume! P.s Did you get your Bio from Steve? I bet the paint work is shit hot?!!

The legs actually came with braces anyway but since gluing them onto the spandex I cant decide if I want to change it back to a 2 piece. I will have to think about it. I have not heard back from Steve about the Bio. I am not chasing it though as I have not prepaid for it and funds are tight anyway. Cheers Darren |

Yeah give it some thought! In a way having it 2 piece would be easier to store! Keep us updated mate! Bri:shock: IN SPACE NO-ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM... [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v470/bmctoonz/AlienSignature.gif[/img] |

I'd say two piece as well, 'cos lees chance of damaging it taking it off and on as two seperate parts. A pred with braces - rock on Tommy. SAS Anything that, in happening causes itself to happen, happens again. |

Not yet Bri. I'm waiting until I have a second pair hands to paint in the latex in the gaps whilst I'm wearing the suit. I have to do it this way since my attempt at a duct tape dummy was a complete failure LOL. Then I have to find a free weekend that I can get together with my mate to paint all the armour pieces but I am waiting for the shoulder armour and cannon to arrive before I do that. I also need to fill out the feet with some foam or something and put some kind of small platform/tread on the bottom of them. Cheers Darren |

Ah ducktape dummies - they are good fun! Ah if you give the gaps a few coats of latex it should be strong enough for alot of wear and tear! Make sure the armor looks very weather beaten and worn! Always adds to realism! This should be the best Predator in the UK!! Glad its based on P1;) Boots would be a good thing to wear under the feet! That way your feet will be protected from anyone stepping on them! A problem I'm alil worried about when wearing the bug feet! lol Best of luck to ya mate!

Made a bit more progress with my Pred costume tonight. I got the torso,thigh, shin and cod piece armour done. Sorted out the belt and deer hide and put some trainers inside the feet so that I can now walk properly. [img]http://www.friendly-skies.co.uk/images/tempphotos/Pred4.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.friendly-skies.co.uk/images/tempphotos/Pred5.jpg[/img] Any feedback and comments welcome. Cheers guys. Darren |
