[Skullsplitter]

G-sus.... Hotdamn Mike!

 

[Roydraven]

[juiceredrum]

wow bro those shoulder bells are so detailed man i love the work you put into your pieces beautiful starting to kick myself for not acting when i had the chance i should have took you up on those !!!!!! oh well next time

 

[Uratz]

Its done. Fun painting this guy. It;d be cool If I had the resources to make an entire set of armor in this aesthetic.

Thaden wanted a "Gold Narin" type finish to it hopefully this is acceptable. If not I'll keep trying until we get it right

Awesome Mike. Anyway to dirty up the gold? It's a tad too pristine...but beautiful nonetheless!

Actually the lighting is giving it more of a shine. I'll take some pics in sunlight to see if its dirty enough.
I actually did dirty it up with lots of black shoe polish. In natural light it looks like the Orcs dug this up from the ground.

Here is the same Ghoul Shoulder armor in sunlight.

Ghoul Hunter's Arm Gauntlet Sculpt.

This is a little deviation from the concept drawing. There was much more space to work in so I changed the design to add more ridges and allow the design to be wearable on both right and left forearms. This way I just cast 2 of the same thing and just switch the tops with different function modules like wristblade, computer, or plain armor

This design idea is similar to the way they did it in AVP

 

[Blasturbator]

you are a master in your craft

Damn!! Those are badass. I can not wait until you get all of the armor done.

I am trying to see my Wolf in this armor

I'm working on another set of Shoulder Bell armor and the gauntlet is almost done. I have to get these 2 ready for molding. Pics will be up soon

Gothic style Predator Shoulder Bell.

I wasn't too happy with the design on the other shoulder bell so I had another idea. More to fix on symmetry and stuff- driving me nuts

The blank area will be customized to include relief sculpts of:
Alien, Predalien, Alien Queen, Predator Head and Human/demon/angry Skull
which I will sculpt later after molding the entire thing.

The cast will have different options.

I'll need all your ideas on which Head ornament options to sculpt first

Oh my shoulder hurts

Awesome Mike! I've purchased your stuff from time to time (bio, beads etc..) and I never can get over the detail you put into them. As for "most severely unemployed and under paid" you should be working for a movie studio somewhere. I am glad we have some one of your talent here in the Lair, but really Mike you should send out some resume's with photo's to the big dogs. They couldn't find a better person just remember us little people if you ever make it big.
