I still need to order these bloody whips!(joker and dexter stuff are delaying me) ..one question,will they still be able to bend as well as the original whips?

yeah i think they bend just as much, maybe more, because the EL is actually bendable, plus the wire that runs them together is bendable.

get some!

having that many EL wires with individual triggers you should try to rig something crazy and do a youtube vid for fun :D
like when you somehow had an excuse to get a fogmachine for work for one day and then take it home for the night to reenact a bunch of movie scenes :)
oh did I miss the forum last night :p

haha good call. yeah its pretty crazy looking into the box with all the wires. ive def. got my work cut out for me... i should do something fun to lighten ( no pun.) the load.

i tested all the wires, and of course ONE doesnt work, haha. thats ok, returns are easy.
 
how are these dioramas progressing? It's been a while since your last post

Not that I'm impatient or anything.....um.....

:)

haha funny you should ask! just finished the mold! its awesome! i want to cast NOW, but im waiting on some mold release in the mail :mad:

im going to clean up these edges, thats just posterboard that decided to stick to the rubber. all i have to do it stretch it around and it peels right off. not even necessary, but i want the mold to look nice.


by the way, this is my first mold! ive made several before with other people. but this is the first one i did all by myself, haha.:yess:

looks like its going to work PERFECT!

this may be a daft question, but will these be fully painted before you send them out? It's just that i have absolutely no painting experience whatsoever
 
Mold looks great and with your hand in their, it gives us a good idea of the size of the dio. :rock

I sure appreciate the updates.
Thanks Ben.
 
Just catching up on the updates, thanks for keeping us in the loop Ben! :rock

Man, it's lookin' SWEEEEEEET!!! So glad I have one of these on order. This is going to look STELLAR with Whiplash and Mark V! :yess:

And to your impeccable talent Ben... :bow
 
thank you thank you.

i cant wait to have some of these done as well.

putting in another order for some supplies on these, if anyones on the fence, now would be a good time to jump over and order! haha

also have an extra whiplash if someone is still having a hard time tracking one down. pm me.
 
Just got through watching the Formula 1 race event this weekend which was at Monaco.

Was waiting to see if anyone would come out from the stands with two electric whips, but no luck. :D

Unfortunately, during qualifying, driver Sergio Perez had a terrible crash. Reminded me of the crash from the Iron Man movie, but this was the real deal. :(

Story and pictures here: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/formulaone/article-1391873/Sergio-Perez-lucky-escape-horror-crash-Monaco.html?ito=feeds-newsxml

Oh man. Scary stuff.

Wanted to chime in and let everyon know things are still very much moving forward. Tested out the mold the other day with a quick resin cast. Everything cast great! Just trying to decide on the beat material to cast in. I've got some options. I definatly wantto get these all done in time for the mark v as well.

Also. I decided I think I'm going to limit these. I don know how many others are interested, but I only want to do an additional 5 more! It's alot of work, and of course I underestimated material costs. Don't get me wrong, I am EXTREMELY excited to do them. And can't wait to see peoples displays! I just won't be able to push out the large numbers I had though of doing. Which is fine! Limited is good. I still have other dioramas I want to do. (speaking of, if anyone wants the predator one it's still for sale!)
Anyway. Thanks all who ordered so far, and hanks for your patience. Were almost done!
And to the others who are wanting a base and whips, only 5 more available!!
Thanks, ben.
 
Thank you Ben for the progress.

After the F1 Monaco race this past weekend, I'm pumped up again for your dio. :)

Looking forward to your next update.
 
Only 5 more? :gah:

Really wish I could see a finished one to put me over the edge on this. :monkey3

Are the 8 who put down a deposit displaying this atop a Detolf or elsewhere?
 
I'll be displaying mine in my bookshelf. There's plenty of depth to fit this. At one point, I was even asking Ben if he could make my dio a little larger. :)

The funny thing is, I'm slowly removing more and more books as I purchase more figures. It's becoming less of a library and more of a museum showcase. :lol
