The Aliens Legacy Forum

I reached out to Titlewave Designs a few weeks ago, via his Etsy store, and he's happy to sell the model; I'll pick up a copy in the new year & give this a go, too.

EDIT: He's since listed the files in his store - files on Etsy

Bogging and sanding, sanding and Bogging.
finally im starting to see real results. i have put the final coat of spray putty on. just a few sections that need a quick wet sand and the shins, chest and back plate will be complete.
after christmas, i will buy the materials needed to to create a mold of the parts so i can cast in resin and fiberglass to make copies.

SIDE NOTE.
the 2 mid section sunken bracket mounts on the back plate i have not really cleaned up, as i plan on cutting them out and casting them separately and installing them after.

i cant wait to get the models for the helmet and the shoulder bells

seperate bracket mounts to be printed

Helmet file has been completed by the designer.
i up-scaled the width to 110% and left the front to back and height scale at 100%.
but i feel like its a little too big. so im going to reprint the helmet base at 95% but keep the width ( left to right) at 100%. see how that goes.

screen shots of the files required printing

I dont much care for selfies of this manner,
but this is the 100% scale helmet, with the 110% width.
TBH. it feels and looks very bobble heady to me.
second print is already on the plate. 23 hours to go.

PS i feel like im channeling a Hydra foot soldier from Captain america without the face guard.
