Creating T.O.

He's all done! Check the final product a few posts down!

Here is my TO from the start, I have only gotten through the molding stage so far. Paint and decals are next.

Attaching the arms: The left arm came pretty strait, however the only right arm I had to use was bent and shorter. I had to melt, bend and stretch the right arm, I think it came out pretty close.



Filling the gaps: There were some large holes to fill. Next is shaping the arms for symmetry.



Shaping with a Dremel: I had to do a lot of shaping/carving with the dremel. I thinned his body out. I re-shaped his legs, arms, torso and shoulder pads to look smoother and what I think is more realistic.




Shoulder Work: I think his shoulder pads and arms came out great. I had to do some extra carefull dremel work with them. I tried to shape out the pads, biceps, and forearms. I think this was the final touch, what do you think of the side-by-side picture of the original TO and this athlete?
