Today I'm going over my part in the trophy department.
I was asked by Duke to look into creating the base for some of his trophy's this year. It was the same concept as last year but with a better application. So I needed to create a master and reproduce it. Yes I looked all over for something pre-made but nothing worked.
My search ended in the trim department with 4 inside corner blocks.
After a quick measurement and some testing I was able to figure how much to cut off and used a clamp to keep the cuts consistent.
Next I glued and clamped, and glued and clamped again.
After this some wood filler and sanding, and repeat.
Time for a test run. This is my damaged Space Marine statue guy like the ones used for the final product. Its a perfect fit and time to go into the mold.
Best trophies ever!

Damm those look sweet!
ReplyDeleteNice, gotta get me one or two :)
ReplyDeleteJust kidding, I foresee an anti-climatic Day 1 exit from contention to win the whole thing, followed by a Round 5 tabling to complete my humiliation :-p
I'm sure you'll do just fine X. Even with that big target on the back of your head.
