Hello guys,
Little update on the project wich is not dead lol.
I received the magnificent 1/4 weapons by doggiedoc.
They are awesome. (again phone pics so proportions look weird).

I encountered several problems with the Enterbay Rambo pants.
Basically the were too tight and kept on tearing, zip breaking.
I tried different solutions but recently I met a seamstress who specializes in bjd dolls and she agreed to help me.
So I'm getting new pants adapted to the muscular Enterbay body.
Even better she offered to do a screen accurate leather jacket (im using a T2 modified one).
I should get the set in 4/5 weeks.
She might do a little run for those interested.

About the boots.
I found some really cool leather boots close enough with some rework but alas they were huge 1/3 scale 😭😭😭

I was lucky to find a gifted sculptor that will do a recast of the resin boots I have but in rubber (soft rubber for the top, hard rubber for the sole). He agreed to do a little run too if there's interest.

Last huge part, the gargoyles glasses.
It was a huge question mark for me.
Until I discovered recently that Sean Dabbs did a 3d model of those.
I contacted him to know more about it.
If the quality is good enough for a 3d print.
Finger crossed.

I actually bought this model and ordered a 3d print of it in 1/6 scale. It's currently being processed.
 
Thanks.
They look good.
Where they ready to be printed in 1/6 or you modified the measures?
Frosted detail maybe to have better finish?

I changed the scale to 1/6 myself.
And yes, frosted detail would even be better. I'm still figuring out the results of all the different materials myself ;-)

Cool.
I bought the model and put it up on shapeways too.
Now I'm having some difficulties with the measures.
Im using the Sideshow headsculpt, and the original glasses overall width frame is 1.41inches (3.6cm).
Should I enter that in the X case?
What does XYZ stand for?

What measurements did you enter for 1/6?
 
Thanks :)))))

While I'm at it, I'm gonna use the frosted detail option, it's white translucent.
Any way to give them a black color but still kinda transparent ?
Thanks

Do you have an airbrush? You could give them a few thin glazes of Tamiya transparent black and then add a gloss topcoat.
