Great job :D

thanks very much. thats why i added the scale print outs to use, no art skills necessary :D

Great idea, I was thinking it would be fun to try out 3d papercraft tanks. Maybe even go into the 500-1000 point army sizes. Only downside is space and storage.

Honestly im just as surprised, i have no idea how sculptors work at 25mm scale for all the miniatures out there.

Yes the wood surrounds where prefab and bought from a store before i got involved, I dont know where they were from or how much they cost but anything could really be used.If this part where upto me i would have looked for salvage wood online. That way it would be probably cheaper and with one or two buried cross braces, I would have tried to make the planter one long continuous bed.

Very creative and looks delicious :D

Ive thought about doing something similar, I never thought about painting it. What a great idea.

Glad to hear it, the material costs are pretty cheap too.

Thanks very much, i wouldnt recomend any kind of pipe or broom handle as their cross-sections are circles. no axe handle or even sword grip should have a circle cross-section. they are always ovals to ensure the wielder can feel the position of the cutting edge. a small detail but it was my reasoning for not using piping.

I only used scissors to cut the paper templates. To cut the foam i used disposable blades, they can be resharpened using wd40 oil along with a knife sharpening tool.I think a hotknife is a bit excessive, it wouldnt make the cleanest cut, be very quick/easy for the foam density and lastly could make fumes.If your ever worried about something wrecking the tool your using, then think of a way to resharpen/repair the tool first or the cost or replaceable disposable blades as an alternative.For clean cuts you need the blade to be sharp, i resharpened the disposable blades just to get a good mileage out of them.

yes thats the guy. he made this helmet with adam savage on tested and i just freehanded something similar and just adjusted it as i was putting it togther.

its based off a pattern by a guy called evil ted.

Thanks, i enjoyed it too, been quite a few years since i had painted anything too.

Thank you very much :)

By using contact adhesive. wait for the two sides to dry for 10mins, then press them together. for any parts that dont come together too well, press them together for a little bit and they should bond.

This project isnt on other peoples youtube channels, ive only posted it here.

lol thanks, could try ice sculpting next, who knows

Thank you very much, all it really takes is some decent cutting blades and a little time. :)

Thank you very much :D

Thank you very much :)

the patten i drew from another helmet ive seen, its really not perfect because i drew out the shapes as a rough guide. so i cant really give you anything that would be accurate.

Thank you :)

I wouldnt mind that too much :P

give it a try, its alot of fun. :D
