Nearly finished

[suicideking15]

It still needs some finishing touches but this is what i am working on.

The laser on the prototype can only cut through small non solid object but the boys down at Octavius labs are tweaking it for me.The crush strength of the claw is promising tho, it wont yet smash an energized teen with superhuman-spider like abilities but could easily damage a small child or pet. :)

[doc ock rules!]

Dude, you're working on something I've always dreamed of having. :eek: :eek:

This thread belongs in Community where all the fanboys and fangirls can see it. :D

[The Joker]

DOR is right.They rock :D

[thaispdergrl]

WHOH! AWESOME STUFF! :D

[Dr.Dude]

Damn, they just get better and better!!!!! :) That tentacle is seriously cool. :up:

Is that you in the picture...? ;)

[suicideking15]

no thats my wife. :) wait until you see the 6 footer i have started for the legs. the feet are alot bulkier and heavy claws. Thanks for the compliment. I am going to sell at least one set or arm (not sure which yet) on Ebay. Anyone iterested?

[THWIP*]

WHOAH! IS THAT PLASTIC, ALUMINUM, OR WHAT? THEY LOOK LIKE AUTHENTIC PROPS.........GREAT JOB!:eek:

[spiderfan09]

If you were to sell the tentacles, how much would they cost each?

[spiderfan09]

Or much would they be for the entire set?

[suicideking15]

its all resin with bits of plastic and epoxy. The light is actually a phased down LED that will plug right into the wall. Anyone interested in an entire set (that would include two arms and two legs) would probably run about $1000.00 (i know its a lot but they take so damn much time) i am making a smaller prop version for ebay that is about a two foot length mounted on a nice black laquered stand, it has a plaque stating it is from the labratory of DR Otto Octavius it will appear as tho our friendly neighborhood wallcrawler has torn it from Dock Ock and you ended up with the souvenier. That would probably be about $300.00

[Guyverjay]

Give me back my leg dammit:mad:

[imdaly]

That's just absolutely incredible, man. I mean....wow...

Keep up the awesome work man!

[Elijya]

wow, impressive. you just make cool stuff like this? do you take requests?

[suicideking15]

What are you thinking a about doing? I also just finished a clay sculpt of Hellboys right hand that i am casting in foam. I have been working on a replica glider from the first movie. That is a project let me tell you. but when finished you wont be able to tell the movie one from my replica. I was thinking of adding some more Batman accessories to my hall of heroes as well.

[Elijya]

Incredible. May I also suggest the Infinity Gauntlet for your wall?

personally, I was wondering what sort of tasks it would be for you to create a Gunblade from Final Fantasy 8. Vash the tampede's Gun, Nicholas Wolfwood's cross, or if you've ever read Transmetropolitan, a Bowel Disruptor gun, or his sunglasses (a company made replicas of his sunglasses a few years ago, but they're impossible to find, ungodly expensive, and peices of crap in quality). I've always been very curious to find somebody who could just, you now, MAKE stuff for you. I'm not extremely rich, but I can certainly gther up the money necessary to pay you forsome of these.

[suicideking15]

Im not familiar with final fantasy but if you sent me clear pictures i could definitely give you an idea of what it would take to make.

[Elijya]

here're some pictures of some other replicas, and from the game. I wouldn't be looking for actual metal, probably some kind of plastic (but I don't know anything about making this stuff. if you have any ideas on how you could make it, and about how much it might run, with this or any of those items, I would be very interested). If you enter "gunblade" into google image search, you can find some other images. I like the third one down best in terms of proportions

Now that is some sweet shiznit. :cool:

[Elijya]

exactly why I want one

[WallCrawl]

Well SK15 seems to be the right man for the job, that tentacle is awesome.

[suicideking15]

The "gunblade" doesnt look too difficult it would be made in cast resin (closely resembles white plastic) it would paint up just like the model on the bottom. Ill do a web search on the engraving. its likeness would be the most difficult. Is the handle made to accomadate something other than a human hand or is the sloped back look just for cosmetics?

[WallCrawl]

It's meant for human hands. I think the handle is like that so it can be grabbed two handed and used as a sword, as well as having enough of an angle pull the trigger. Not sure, never played FF8 myself.

[suicideking15]

The thing with casting a prop is this: if you are only making one that one is expensive but you can make as many copies as you want for what the first one cost to make (if that makes sense) one would probably be in the $150 range (that is a finished price) if we could find 2 or 3 people that are also interested we could get that down to $100-75 dollars depending on how finished a piece you want. If you are willing to paint sand and glue the cast pieces together it would be cheaper. I started a mold from an airsoft 357 magnum for the body and will sculpt the handle this week. the blade will be the easiest part except the engraved portion but I am confident we can pull it off.

[Elijya]

you've already started it!?!?!? and it'll only run about $150?!?!? DEAR LORD IN HEAVEN THANK YOU!!!!!!! I was worred it would run like $1500

as for other people being interested, I'm fairly confident you could sell those on ebay for a couple hundred each if you keep the molds. There's tons of die-hard FF fans, and the japanese replicas are impossible to find and cost a few grand, so I'm certain fans would be willing to shell out for a much more cost-effective model.

as for payment, do you have a pay-pal account?

[suicideking15]

You cant collect enough comic book crap to fill a room in your house without a paypal account. Is the etching on the blade a griffin?

[Elijya]

yes, is a griffin. I will look for pictures with a better shot of it later

I have a friend who sounds interested as well

[Elijya]

these're he best pictes I could find

http://koti.mbnet.fi/tuvunen/tuomaan_rpg_sivut/ff8kuvia/muut_kuvat/gunblade.jpg http://www.midnightrevolution.org/moonsong/archives/gunblade.jpg

[suicideking15]

I will submit some pics of the casting process if you are interested. I wont be ready to cast anything yet but but when i get the mold done i will put some pictures up.

[Elijya]

please!!! :D

and thank you aain!

[Vincent]

HOLY MOTHER !!!! :Q If I could get the money I would want one ! :Q

[Elijya]

like he said, it'll only be about $150, less if alot of are interested

[Elijya]

lol, my girlfriend wants to know if you can build a live Red XIII

[Vincent]

yeah but it's about 150 bucks more than I can afford right now :p

[WallCrawl]

Why don't you PM Gunblade and see if she wants one?

[Elijya]

good idea!

[WallCrawl]

Not really, it's kind of an obvious one.

[Elijya]

I PMed her, and she's interested, so SK15, you have another customer

[Andrew]

Could you post some more pics of youre tentacles SK15. They are so f**king awesome!

[suicideking15]

here is the finished product ready for display/Ebay I need one for my hall of heroes so there will be more than one made. the laser ended up perfect. the display got finished today. The gunblade is progressing nicely. I had to order some more resin for the blade ( i used it all up making the second set of tentacles) I cast the 357 last night and will rework the trigger guard.

[Elijya]

yeah! working web shooters! Make em! Now!

[suicideking15]

I am still working on the "gunblade" along with about 6 other projects (like a full size goblin glider, a working bat-spear gun, a hellboy stone fist...etc, etc)

[spider-jide]

suicide king your a genius.

[Wushuboy]

take pictures of that entire room.. i want to see what other goodies you have in your collection!!! im just starting mine.. hehe.. want to see how you display things... please!

[Elijya]

what comics is CGCed behind cyclops' visor?

[suicideking15]

I started all this by collecting silver age x-men comics, i have every book CGC 1-100 I put different ones up behind the props from time to time.

[Wushuboy]

awesome collectoin suicideking. im just starting mine up but i dont know how to display them.

one question.. where did you get that display stand for your batman cowl? and how much is it? i've been looking for something like that but dont know where to get one. right now i have a makeshift one consisting of a foam ball stuck on top of a lamp . hahaha.. ghetto but it works.. let me know where i can get one of those display stands for the cowl.. thanks!

[suicideking15]

I made the stand. It has a batarang on the front so it looks more complex than it is. A number of places sell what are sometimes refered to as a "wig head" it is basically a styrofoam head. I added a wooden black laquered base and some simple plumbing fixtures and it ends up looking real industrial and professional is the same thing you see the Magneto helmet sitting on.

this is what you are seeing inside bats

email me your address i will send you one of the heads. the ones i have are for displaying military gear and are tan and the face has good features. Most of the heads i found look like marilyn manson without makeup and are stark white.

If you see one of these goblin heads on ebay it was probably made from my castings. I made this mask when the first teasers came out for spidey 1 and now everybody is making them and selling them and i know no one else is sculpting them from scratch
(but you cant collect like i do and be in it for the money, it has to be for a love of the characters and comic books)

[Elijya]

if I may ask, SK15, how is you have so much money?

[Wushuboy]

(but you cant collect like i do and be in it for the money, it has to be for a love of the characters and comic books) [/B]

that's very generous of you.. but im not sure if itll fit. I think the cowl i have is smaller than usual.. i cant even fit my head through it. Right now Im using a small foam ball that's definately not the size of a human head. It barely fits thru the opening. Im really more interested in how you made the stand for it but i think i have a pretty good idea now. Just need to find a base to screw on that piping. Then i'd just mount the foam ball on top.

[suicideking15]

I am not independently wealthy just "comfortable" I am always willing to help out another enthusiast. I hope your project turns out. My only other suggestion is not to use natural wood for the base, use the manufacturered pre-primered (usually white) wood found in the trim section of your local hardware store. It will paint alot smoother and not warp with time.

[Elijya]

hey, sk15, did your auction ever get past $295? I would been happy to fake bid to up the price for you

any pics of the gunblade's progress or anything else you're working on?

[suicideking15]

it got to $500 i declined to sell. I might reconsider. I am still waiting on casting materials for the gunblade but the mold for the gun portion is ready. I still have to rework the trigger guard and handle.

[Elijya]

closer to the movie they'll make more. wait til tv ads start showing up

[Wushuboy]

Goddamn that's shady. I hate ppl like you with no morals. That defeats the whole purpose of ebay. :mad: :mad: :mad:

[soju]

Hey Suicide King (that is a great movie btw), you do some great work! I built my own Jango Fett costume and it turned out really well, if I do say so myself. However, I just bought a fiberglass goblin helmet, and am looking to do the whole costume. But I can't seem to form sintra to the right shapes, regardless of how much bondo building I try to do. It looks like I'll have to go with vaccuformed styrene. Do you, or do you know of anyone who does this armor? I don't have the room for a vaccuform table. Also, what paint did you use, or was it a powder cast? The "soft" part of the costume looks to be a pain too. That's going to take a THICK needle on the ol' sewing machine!

PM me if you want to keep the info from prying eyes. Marvel tends to be jerks when it comes to copywrite infringement. Heck, they won't even let people make skins for the game "The Sims" anymore. Lucas used to be the same way with Star Wars stuff, but so many people keep doing it, he's started slacking off. :D

Oh yeah, my wife wants to know where you got the Cyclops visor.

Thanks for any info you can give.

Oh yeah, I noticed you're working on the gunblade. Will you be making the keychain-thing hanging from the grip too?

[Elijya]

I've never bid on ebay before, it would've just been to help out

[suicideking15]

I actually have a full set of Goblin armor cast in resin that you might be interested in. I sculpted the raised pieces and cast them in a plastic like material that should now make perfect latex molds. i was considering casting them in polystyrene foam (like the hulk hands are made of) But if you had a vaccum form table that would be ideal. they would then be light weight and could be attached easily. The gunblade is under construction and i assume yes i will have to add the keychain attachment as well I sculpted and cast the visor it is a one off as i destroyed the mold when making it but could recast it if needed. I attached a picture of the goblin armor and some of the molds i used for the dock ock arm.

the last picture fell out. and yes i realize this set needs some finishing but it still has a long way to go to be finished.

[suicideking15]

An update of the Gunblade project. Here are some pics of our progress. It shows the blank i will machine the blade from and the Airsoft 357 i plan on casting to make the gun portion. The cast will be very complicated but i will post some pictures as i progress.

:eek: Holy Christmas... I had not seen that yet. Way to go man!

[Elijya]

is there any way you can adjust the handle from that gun so it's angled back more like here?
http://finalfantasy.gamesalone.it/ff8/gunblade-vero.jpg
http://koti.mbnet.fi/tuvunen/tuomaan_rpg_sivut/ff8kuvia/muut_kuvat/gunblade.jpg

but the rest of it looks nice. I don't wanna give you too many corrections, but I do wanna get it right. Will it have trigger/hammer/revolver action? (it doesn't need to, but it would be nice) will the cylinder fold out?

[suicideking15]

i am sculpting a full handle it will match the picture. the frame you see there will be what we bolt it to

[video567]

hi all this is a very interesting thread i was looking at this picture http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-9/391748/DSC00475.JPG and i was wondering are those webshooters under the spidey mask? do you have a clearer pic? thanks for showing your work

[video567]

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-9/391748/DSC00475.JPG

[suicideking15]

They are a factory-x product from about 2 years ago they are not wearable but a single cast with cast iron "web containers" around the wrist portion i will see if i cant get a better picture

[suicideking15]

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-9/391748/DSC00507.JPG

The blade starting to take shape

[Elijya]

gorgeous....

great news! my soon to be roommate wants one too, so I will definitely be taking two. I've also passed the word on to some friends at a videogame store, and they may be interested as well

[OckGal]

OMG, that tentacle. Oh, to have money. Too bad you don't have mini ones that are a lot cheaper, lol!

What a great hobby! *envious*

[suicideking15]

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-9/391748/DSC00520.JPG

here is the handle and body blocked and ready to sand and primer then cast. the grips will be added after.

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-9/391748/DSC00521.JPG

and the blade. it is sanded and ready for primer then it will get cast. I expect the molds will be done this week if all goes well.

I had to remake the blade a few times to get the shape just right but i think the outcome will be best

[Vincent]

OMG !!! How much was it again ? :p Maybe I'll try to get the money in the Summer holidays if you still make them of course

[suicideking15]

I do plan on relisting the arm(s) this summer closer to the movie. I have 3 of them completed as of today. I will definetly post when the time draws closer

[Vincent]

lol , sorry , I was talking about the GunBlade :p
Oh and BTW how wide/long is the gunblade ?

[suicideking15]

The gunblade will be finished in the next few weeks. yes you are welcome to one. I believe the finished version will be about $150.00 or so. (unless you want to finish a resin kit yourself) The overall length will be about 38" the body of the gun is a standard 357 magnum the blade is about a half inch at the thickest point and 1/4" at the tip.

[Elijya]

see,? told you others would be interested ;)

[Vincent]

Errmmm ... 38" ? I'm on the metric system I have no freacking idea how much is that ? :P

[WallCrawl]

Originally posted by Vincent

That'd be about 85 cm.

And SK, that Gunblade is lookin mighty fine. Can't wait to see it finished. :up:

[Venom_uk]

One word... WOW!!!

You are one talented dude my friend.

[Andrew]

Have you done the other tentacles in the same way you did the first one?

[suicideking15]

The other tentacles i have not added any torn wires or a stand to at this time. I also added a more worn or yellow strip along the inner side of each arm. With each model I try to add small improvements to each one. I had toyed with making a long version (4-5 feet) but the cost was quite prohibative. The smaller models will have to work for now.

[Hattie79]

All your work looks very good SK15. :up: Good job and keep up the good work!!

[Spider_man01]

how do you make a costume that actually fits (like the movie).

And Can you make web shooters that shoot out quick dry cement so you could like swing, is that possible. I'm new at this.

[Elijya]

yeah! and how about working tentacles! and claws that retract! and visors that fire! Screw it! Build me a working Iron Man Suit!

[IRONGL]

Guys Guys lets not fight over it ok?

Just tell them about vash's gun

[dieanotherday]

sweet iam getting the gun blade when ican ::D

[suicideking15]

i think Vash's gun (the comic book style) would be a rather simple project in comparison to the gunblade. The TV style gun would be a much more complicated cast but either one could be done ( i hope)

construction base will be alluminium and steel frame to keep the shape in the tentacles.. i cant move then so they will be static on a backpiece. il try to make it so original as possible. same coller and such, just baugt primer,gold on top of tentacles. and 4 flashlites with red overlays ill keep you guys informd

[suicideking15]

sounds like quite a project i will be looking forward to seeing your progress

Originally posted by suicideking15

with whta material did you make your tentacle ? alluiniium right ? and the base is ? and how did you make it tell me please im still thinking about some.

the plans are already lay in front of me

[suicideking15]

i sculpted one piece from a block of plastic resin then made molds and cast the additional pieces. There actually is no metal in the entire piece just painted that way

[Stefan2003]

okay thanks for the info this weekend i will start my project ill keep you up to date

[Spider_man01]

Hey suicideking15 I was woundering if I could put a few pics of your tentacles and other things you've made on my site. PM or E-mail me with a few pics if you agree, please!
:)

[suicideking15]

You can pull the pictures i have put up here if you like i dont mind.

[Spider_man01]

Cool! Thanks, I'll be working on the site today okay. I'll give you the url when I've finished!

[Spider_man01]

Yeah, here's the website url

http://www.expage.com/ocktentacles

If a virus thingy comes up, it's a trick press alt and f4 and it'll go away, sorry about the pop ups.

Does the site do you tentacles justice, let me know.
:)

[Spider_man01]

and go to

http://www.expage.com/spiderpheniox

to see where it's linked to. (scrool to the bottom, it is under the link home-made stuff)

[suicideking15]

That looks great. You sure have some talent in making websites that went up pretty quick

[Spider_man01]

Thanks, Do you know how to make web-sites?
(It's pretty easy, that's y I've So much talent) Hee Hee :)

[Elijya]

SK, I can't belive I didn't think to ask this before, but how much extra would building a gunblade case cost me? it's hard to find pictures of the one in the gam, but this one should give you a pretty good idea. I think it's the only picture that exists


http://www.bishounen.net/structure/wall/gunblade.jpg

[Vincent]

That case and the blade , now that's something a FF fan would drool about ! My self included ;)

[Elijya]

well, can you afford it? he'll make you one too

[suicideking15]

I have a case constructed. I dont know how many of those I would be able to make but at least everyone can get a look at it and see if its something they like.

[suicideking15]

I still have three molds yet to make but the progress is coming along nicely. Like everything i take on too many projects at once. I was up late last night carving out Vash's gun. But dont worry the gunblade gets finished first.

[Elijya]

oh my god does it look gorgeous

what exactly is it made out of again? resin? meaning it'll crack if I hit anything with it? mmm:( still looks bloody awesome

Oh man ... I wish I had the money ... :( 150 bucks is still too much for me ... adding to the fact that I'm not from the states , the shipping alone would sunk me ... :(

[suicideking15]

Resin is a very hard plastic. It could be damaged if you were to strike something with it, but it is far from fragile, the most likely thing is you would scratch the finished paint.

[suicideking15]

here you go elija. assembling the gunblades in the work shop
As you can see the revolver action is cast seperate and will still spin like a real gun when completed

This blade turned out awesome. I used a little heavier resin so it actually feels like a weapon when you "wield" it. I hope to have 5 completed resin kits by this time next week. Then i put the molds away and paint one up all nice and pretty. :)

Nope. Kill Bill.

[docy ocky]

What supplies/ things did you use for this?

[suicideking15]

mostly resin. cast from sculpted foam pieces. the Gunblade is entirely resin.

[docy ocky]

cool, you should make a smaller sort of super deformed version of the arms that have a tiny led light on the hands and not a big one. one thats not to pricey and easy for you to make.It also could be warable, a light werable version that is on a strap or somthen. Now theres an idea.

[suicideking15]

here you go Elija. laying the case out for the gunblade. I havent yet fully assembled the gun (i may have to ship that way) but you get the idea. The top is still drying for the case but it has a sliding clear cover for the ammunition. I dont have any clear art to put on the case so it is just plain old black. i added some texture to the grips but still made them shiny like the pictures i have seen. I got a trade paperback today of Trigun and there is layouts for alot of different weapons I think would be fun to try. including a huge cross that houses a machine gun. But i digress...Enjoy!

Beautiful paint job.

about trigun, I was gonna ask you to take a look at some of that stuff next, but it seems you've jumped the gun on me. The Cross in question belongs to Nicholas D. Wolfwood. The long end splits to reveal a machine gun, the short end houses two rockets, and the arms slide out and reveal a rack of handguns

Also, really curious if you have any idea how the Infinity Gauntlet might be appomplished? Medieval gauntlets seem to clunky to use as the basis, thanos gauntlets seem so elegant in comparison. Was really curious if you had any thoughts

I can not comply with your request for two reasons:

1. Kill Bill is not a mother ^^-^^^-ing ass film. it is a mediocre remake of a thousand other films.
2.I cant take anyone serious that is using the "boobies" in their postings or tagline i.e: (*)(*)

It is people that drool over movies such as Kill Bill that drive good directors into thinking they can be lazy and still be successful. Hopefully Tarantino will continue to churn out the good stuff, like you SK!

BTW what is your next project, something from Trigun?

[Elijya]

I was thinking my next commish would be Vash's gun. depends how well first transaction goes (SK, Paypal info, please IM it to me)

If you're up for it, SK, and I have the funds, I'd be willing to comish stuff like this from you as often as possible

[suicideking15]

I finished the blueprints for a 5 1/2 foot puniser cross. It will NOT be a multiple. It will be a one of a kind. complete with a slide out gun tray, a missle launcher from the top part of the naive, and a hidden machine gun in the long portion,

[Elijya]

does the long portion split apart?

and why do you keep ignoring my attempts to pay you?

see what i mean?, angle wings on the cannon

[suicideking15]

I hope you havent done your English final yet.

angle: a degree or portion of an arc of a circle
Angel: a heavenly body or messenger

[suicideking15]

I stripped down a shocker sport (thats a full auto paintbal gun) to make the guts of the punisher. When you turn the skull the gun will sound. Not shoot but in the confines of the cross I think its going to be pretty convincing. I will post some of the blueprints soon. Elija, i sold 6 of the kits so far on EBay ($120 or so plus shipping) im pretty happy with that

[Elijya]

of the Gunblade kits? wish you'd told me that. You never said whether or not you wanted me to mention it to friends and others that they could order them too, so I haven't been mentioning it. once it arrives next week, I'll take it around and get people interested

[Spider_man01]

the machine gun in the long part will be inside as will the rocket launcher, i planned on the left side of the cross having a sliding out drawer that houses some airsoft guns (automatics). The gun will sound like a machine gun but no projectiles of course. Have any of you been to a cosplay or anime convention? i was wondering if this would be admitted inside or not?

You can't be that big of a moron, can you? :rolleyes:

I have no idea, but since it's illegal in certain areas to brandish toy guns in public that look real (most toys now have an orange cap at the end of the barrel or look toyish), I would assume not. It's not that big of a deal, the person who commisioned it could always empty it out for conventions and such.

undoubtedly. I have seen many pictures of cosplayers going as Nicholas carrying their homemade crosses, yours will undoubtedly be the most advanced and wellmade, though. But, yeah, cosplayers pretty much carry anything they want to cons. Swords, guns, everything

[Elijya]

hey, does anyone know about the legality of me carrying the gunblade around in it's case? I'm not gonna carry it like everyday, but I was gonna take it to show it to a few friends when I got it. Is it illegal to carry? I mean, it is a plastic replica, I doubt I could really do more damage with it then, say, a baseball bat or a pool cue, which would be ok to carry, though suspiscious. I live in philadelphia, any law expoerts wanna check on taht for me?

The punisher cross is going to be quite a project, but since it is a one-off it will be challenging, (that means you cant throw out your mistakes).

Thats a good question. I dont have any finished at this time (awaiting materials for casting. But when it is completed i will let you know. Im thinking 40-50$

Now the fun part! Sanding until your lungs bleed pink.

heres some gunblades ready for packaging to happy E-bay customers. (Can you believe ive sold 9 of these things so far?) before the project i had never heard of Final Fantasy (except the movie) and turns out everyone else on the planet had.

You're also gong to get some major mileage out of that Wolfwood Cross you're making. There's many anime fans who'd love to own that. Making more FF paraphernelia is another sure bet (Cloud's sword comes to mind).

[suicideking15]

Originally posted by Elijya

Most know exactly what it is, or what its supposed to be I suppose. Alot of questions are whether the web picture that is actualy a digital creation not a prop is the same gun. There was another gunblade on ebay the same time as mine but was not as accurate IMO He was asking 400. That might have helped me too.

[Elijya]

well, what was his made out of?

have you definitely made a profit from this, SK? If so, I'm very happy to have helped

[suicideking15]

his was made of wood and fiberglass (no lion on the blade either)
I liked the way he handled the handle but the body of the gun was wrong
and yes it has been a profitable venture

Original materials and molds: $185.00
9 kits (less materials) $865.00
Give or take a few bucks $780.00
Not bad for a months work LOL

[Elijya]

and I guarentee you'll sell them all year long, too

Vash's gun, which we've also mentioned, is also completely unavailable in the states. the replica they made in japan was a WORKING replica, I've discovered, which blows me away, it is so cool. But I feel cofident you could sell a boatload of those, as well

[suicideking15]

Well I cant make a working replica. but I think it will look somewhat right.

[JokerFish]

WoW.......im glad to see that your doing great with this stuff. And you really going to make a Riddlers Cane!!!?!?!:eek:

[suicideking15]

Ill have a mold made for the top and probably use wood for the lower portion. if you are interested I can make one for you that you can get your own wood dowell part. It should paint up real nice. Some of the pieces that require glue are hard to paint because the paint wont stick to the glued portions but this will be a one piece cast. I will make you the same agreement i made with elijya for his gunblade. you pay for materials (approx $25.00)

[Elijya]

it still hasn't arrived yet :(

[IRONGL]

Okay dude,
I know that your making a nice peice o dough off your art.
But is that all you do?
Its a kickass project and I aplaud you for it, just is tha t all?

[suicideking15]

Elija your piece will be there tomorrow.
Irongl. The money i make from selling props buys more material and tools is about it. My weekly box at my local comic book shop runs $850 a month. so its not exactly paying the bills if you know what i mean. I work full time for the man just like everyone else.

[Elijya]

$850 a month? DAMN! how come you don't hang out in the comics forums much if you read that many titles?

[suicideking15]

no body else does. And i wish i could read them all sadly i dont. I have them all boxed and bagged and store alot of them

Any suggestions on where to obtain a QUALITY replica of Cyclop's visor from the X-Men movie? Not the yellow one that's out for sale now, but a movie replica.

[suicideking15]

There are at least 4 different models I have seen on Ebay made from resin kits from both movies, and the comic version. There are no manufacturers that i am aware of except a bulky haloween version from the first movie that looks like a halloween costume.
Good luck

I am a member of a prop forum much like this one and there are people working on Van helsing but i havent seen anything finished yet or in a kit form. Because that is not a "huge" movie that might be special request but you never know
