this isn't mine, it's a friend of mine who's gone crazy with foam and a hot knife..I think it's an awesome interpretation!

the dog in the bottom picture is incredibly realistic!

Seriously these devices  cross the line between technology and witchcraft as far as I'm concerned! Consider me boggled.

Looking forward to regular updates, I love a good build thread!

Look forward to seeing the gun done.. as for your mates one, I may be wrong but he hasn't 'hardened' the foam has he? Theres a good tutorial thing that was posted by another forum member on the creative common that linked to costumer 'X robots' experiment with a process to coat foam with pva glue and then a thin resin plastic coat. Gives a good finish andcan be done on card too.

new update!

So the materials arrived for me to begin cutting out the templates proper...however they are the wrong sort, kinda soft and certainly not durable enough for a handleable piece..grrrrrr

anyway I decided to make the best of it and even though it's inferior quality it is still the right thickness so template test phase two engage!



turns out my templates are pretty much spot on! woohoo!!!
Now I just await delivery of the proper base materials before I can properly crack on with this badboy

Nice thread! Always like to see how people make items, especially when they put their heart into it. Looking forward to seeing more pictures of the progress!

Yes...  :-[

(I repeat the 'Do you require back up' 'No!' bit just before I gun it past some cars...)

Speaking of trumpets, slightly O.T., but we tried to talk them into using a Triumph Rocket III as a base for the Lawmaster.. But they weren't having it.

Would have been expensive, but completely and utterly awesome.

Why that bike in particular?

Michaelvk

Because, with a bit of careful dressing, it would have a big presence, as well as be able to perform. Ultimately it's not a movie about a bike.
