Thank you all for the kind words and support, keeps me going really
So impressed by this thread, you really do have a talent there. Out of interest (and aplogies if already asked in this thread) but have you contacted any of the original modelling team. I'm sure they would be interested in your work.
Yes a chap in the robocop forum (yes there is one lol) works at Tippet studios, the main man, Phil Tippet said "he's mad" make of that what you will.
holy good gravy, that's incredible!
how are you powering the OLED screen? does it have it's own driver to go with the other control circuitry?
Its a good device for my needs, had to program it with 4d systems own software but got the hang of it now, I have shorted the jumper on the back which means it'll auto play as soon as power in connected. I will have to run power to it, i'll get some thin wire so it doesnt hook up on the mechanism.
Had to re mount the plate in the collar since re-shaping the collar.
mounted more securly now with a proper joint so I can adjust the head, also finished and mounted the head hydraulics, considering they attach to the bottom of the head ather than inside the head I think they look good!
you can just see the front cylinders here, they should be more promanent but with the screen moving in and out here its just not possible so this is as far forward as they can come.
made another armour plate for the back of the neck
Onto a job I was putting off, having to cut the grooves in the head for detail, this was done with a hacksaw blade and a razor blade (no really)
looks a bit more real now
