"Dragon" hunter armor started
« on: Dec 07, 2009, 07:43 PM »
Ok, for those who have seen my thread on my Krayt Dragon hunter concept, I got some progress done. I have made a fem Mods to my origanl design and have included  clone style hand guards. But all the pictures are what I have done so far. Thanks for looking and please, Please comment.

The hand guard on the glove I am going to use. It is a first gen, it is just to get an idea on how it is going to look. I will glass it with some help.



Sorry for the picture. I will try to take a better on eventually.

Here is a front picture of the lip of the hand plate. It is almost impossible to find as this one is covered with electrical tape, witch is also black. Again sorry.



also I have started on my jetpack and will post a thread on my progress for that. NAd if wanted I will link it here.

this is the orignal concept but I moved from the scales to darth dom's  body armor concept

this
although the helmet will stay the same from the first pic. The horns might get placed differently and I might to a bone design if I can contact Ijaat.

also this is my pack idea. I still am going to do a Jango stubby but will use this for hotter conditions or stronger foes.

This is the final concept for my Dragon slayer armor. The verd'ika helmet has a backstory that will come later. I have upturned the horns and placed them on the dome rather than on the ears. I have added a kama,black with green trim. As for the chest detail, those are two crossbone style sythes.

 Thanks but this isn't really the best artwork around. Artistic "skills" are not that hard to obtain, in fact you might already have them and just take them for  granted as youu use them daily. Any thing can become art. You just have to have a little imagantion

Update!!! I have gone through out the processes of buying  a bucket, cuutting the armor out and painting. Right now as I am typing the last coat of paint is drying. But suilly me forgot to take pictures and I will post pics of the remaining buucket, the armor as it dries and the final product. However due to muy lack of insight, I thought I could get every piece of armor out of one bucket. I am missing one knee and the back plate. Those I will take pics of. RIght now enjoy this long update and pics will be on their way soon.

Xyon: I have had many people tell me that, and the fact that my school's mascot is a viking has nothing to do with it. wink wink :-)

without further ado here is my partially finished dragon slayer armor....

looking great! make sure you get some spats or have boot and shin armor to cover those boot laces. might think about thinning out the cod some, make it narrower, for comfort.

Diggin it so far. Also giving me some ideas for mine. Ever thought of maybe getting your grubby little paws on some faux alligator leather or croc leather? Just an idea. I'll be doing something with it in my kit. Once I get some I let you know and maybe we can work out a trade or some such thing.

Really likin' what you have so far Parj. :D

(Btw- haven't gotten that PM yet. <_< >_> Buut, I have an idea for the coloring on the leather. Didn't know if you wanted me to spray some green on it, kind of like I did with the green and gold on my brother's kama . .I'll try to find a good pic of it to show you want I mean. Might give the leather some "oof" to set it off. Might not though. lol It's up to you.)

Aden: already working on that :-). I  have designed a two part system. Lower boot and laces are covered\

Kora: hmmm.....curious. I'll pm you again to see if iut works.

Skudt: Glad i could help. As far as faux leather goes in the way of "dragons" of today, I would much like it iuf you could point me it the direction of some. Trades are always possible.


Glad you all like it. Get ready for some seriouus upgrades soon. Wink, Wink......tune in next week.

Thanks, Phax. Btw how's your set coming? I am overhaauling it now as I want to get some things done and get a test fit although I might have to rework the neck armor. It feels alittle to small. Also I am planning on getting a DSB helmet for this kit. We'll see how that pans out. Wish me luck. As for the Boot armor I am working on getting my second boot cut out. as far as attaching it I am at a loss. If any one can help please do so. Thanks. As far as my kness go a the new Crl's could anyone help on hiding the straps?
