"Bow before Ultron" diorama by riteguytu

[riteguytu]

Hiya folks! Again, I'm here to share what I've been up to recently! .

(More details here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100008838961611)

I got commissioned to create the alternative ending to the Avengers movie, where Ultron beat the Avengers and held their weapons as trophies in his hand. The customer sent me his SS Ultron on throne statue, and I got to work!

1. First thing to do was to agree on the concept:

Here was his sketch:

Here was my photoshop based on his sketch:

And a larger one showing the entire proposed diorama:

The new hand would bend back quite a bit more than the one holding the ant man head, so I would have to create a new one from scratch...

2. Props were to be battle damaged and would be:
- Movie Iron man head with LED eyes
- Movie Warmachine head with LED eyes
- Hawkeye quiver
- Spiderman mask
- Mjolnir

Here are some progress pictures. I used a variety of materials: styrene, epoxy clay, pvc, foamcore board, resin...

3. The new Ultron hand would have to support quite a bit of weight, so I agreed with the customer that we would have to drill a hole into Ultron's arm for a peg like this:

Hence the new hand has a pin sticking out a bit. Here it is painted up to match Ultron's other hand (sorry, I didn't take in progress pics of the hand sculpt)

And finally...
(I also replaced the resin Antman head antennae with metal ones for durability)

And now...'Bow before Ultron!'







Customer came over to pick up the statue yesterday and is a VERY happy camper!

How would he lift Mew-Mew? Just defeating Thor wouldn't make him, "worthy."
Ultron is a menace, not a good guy.
Nice work, just curious.

The inscription on the hammer says "Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor". That applies to a person. Ultron is a robot, not a person...

Thanks! A combination of Alclad chrome and Spazstix chrome...
