AngelForge updates

I don't believe there's a plan for that (right now, anyway; I will push for it later).

Legs wouldn't really be necessary, as Robo usually wears pants, so stock legs would work.

The arms, on the other hand, kind of need to be done.

 

[Dropshipbob]

Holy crap, I just saw the Gremlin sculpts, my head just about exploded...again!

 

[fogger1138]

Mogwai will be coming at some point. (Or so I heard )

 

[Mandingo Rex]

1:18 scale Mogwai?

 

[fogger1138]

Don't get them motherfuckers wet!

closeup pics of 4 of the con winner heads are posted at Angel Forge's Sanctum. Krexx says rest will be shown tomorrow. http://theangelforge.editboard.com/t135p20-con-weekend-winners#946

Yeah, I'm not signing up at yet another board. What's in that link, boss?

 

[XOC2008]

It's The Angelforge's forum. That's really all there is there. Some people showcasing AF sculpts in customs, etc.

I'm not at home this weekend, but I'll mirror the pics over here as soon as I can.

Thank you sir! Limited bandwidth here makes that difficult.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

Love that thriller one...would make for a fun nod in a zombie horde

 

[darthdre758]

Still no Tom sculpt. =(

 

[fogger1138]

Couple of new things posted; including your Tom Cruise head, Dre.

DO WANT THAT BASCINET!

 

[fogger1138]

Still needs to be sent to DW from Krexx, but in a few months or so.

 

[K-Tiger]

I don't even have a use for the fucking thing, but I still want it.


Too bad his Wild Weasel torso is.......not good.

What's wrong with the WW torso? I think the pouches are a little bulkier than they should be, but overall I like it.

 

[K-Tiger]

It just doesn't say "fighter pilot" to me. It says "lets base it on the ARAH one".

Which, ya know, is fine if that's what you're tying to do, which I believe it was.

Ah, well yeah. That one is definitely Krexx making a fairly faithful 'better-that-the-25th-version' interpretation of a classic Wild Weasel. It's not gonna be everyone's cup of tea for sure. I think I'm gonna do two WW's and pick one. A classic one with Krexx's sculpts, and something more modern utilizing most of the Retaliation Airborne/Data Viper torso/arms/legs with that canceled ROC Firefly Helmet(The one originally for Gunship FF).

 

[K-Tiger]

I'm thinking arms and torso from Ret. Airborne and the vest from Lift Ticket (Eaglehawk edition). Scratch that, Shock Trooper uppers with Mouse's rolled-up sleeves could make for a great "Maverick" look.

The problem is the legs. The ones from Ret. Airborne are more-or-less accurate for a U2 pilot pressure suit, and while I can probably live with the lower legs I'm not a fan of the thighs.

Building a pilot (especially a helo pilot) can be a real bitch.

 

[Mswi]

When it comes to the Joe stuff Krexx designs for AngelForge its ALWAYS going to be ARAH accurate since I pick which ones he does and its my money going into it. Hey I'm an ARAH Fag,and thats what I likes. The M.U.T.s will just have to wait.

 

[Falcone]

I'm not seeing the Wild Weasel body.

I'm all for that MUT

 

[MMorelock66]

Annnnnnd I wish to Christ someone could cast the Mouse arms, and preferably include a peg for assembly.

 

[XOC2008]

I'm not seeing the Wild Weasel body.

I think he posted it on HT. Don't think he posted it on Facebook. Much as I hate linking to HT:

I'm down for both the classic and a modern Wild Weasel, so I'll be looking for a good flight suit picture.

Rather a Vietnam era helicopter crew flak vest. You other guys can go sit on it. :trollface:

only giving up one spot, so...... you guys tell me and give me some reference pics of what you want. I'll pick my top 3 or 5 then you guys can pyjama pillow fight over the winner or vote for the one I'll add in one of my spots.

No fucking crying if yours isn't the picked one either:drum:

[Dark Horse]

Has anyone heard from DW lately? Been trying to get ahold of him :-/

 

[fogger1138]

Not in a week or so.

 

[Obi-Shinobi]

DO WANT THAT BASCINET!

Posted a comment to Krexx on HT... yeah, I know... about that helmet. Hopefully he fixes it. If not, I can make my own.

His Bascinet has more of a Klappvisor styled top/point. Should be more swept towards the top/back of the head, to work with that visor.

 

[K-Tiger]

Yeah, I saw that.

 

[XOC2008]

I spoke to him via email a couple days ago. He was sick and had some downtime, and is now trying to catch up.

 

[Dark Horse]

Cool, thanks mate.
