parts are up on shapeways

Netglow, I forgot all about moon knight but he wont work since he doesnt have spikes on the rest of the gloves.

Dave those look great. For the gloves is it possible to put the little line in between the spike rows or would it be easier to cut it in myself? Also for the glove with spikes on the hand would it be possible to make the hand spikes pointier and closer together?

This whole 3d printing thing is really cool. One thing I dont understand though, are people using shapeways printing their designs and selling them there like etsy, or do you leave your design there and they print/sell it and you get paid for it?

Those shoulders may work out. Im already going to try a couple of different approaches to the jacket so I will try this too. The belt doesnt look right. The spiked belt Hellpop linked to was perfect to me, if you want to duplicate that one Ill pick it up from you. The gloves are about perfect, but after looking at them, would it be possible to just have 3 spikes on the hand, and have a 2nd glove on the left with no spikes on the hand, just the forearm?

On the gloves, is it possible to slim them down a little too? without boots and just using minimate legs and feet Im afraid of him looking too top heavy.

How about these?

Not like those Dave. The belt Hellpop put is accurate, the gloves idealy would be 3 rows of spikes all the way around, with the hands included as each hand has 3 spikes on it. The jacket just has 2 (or 3 on some art) spikes on each shoulder but it has another kind of deal with the way it looks up around the shoulders thats heard to describe. No minimate jacket is close to it since his is always closed. The old wave 6 ghost rider would be better if it covered the whole torso instead of stopping mid chest.

I have tried sculpting spikes, cutting and gluing both the ends of toothpicks and the ends of metal earing backs that were secured in cured apoxie sculpt. Everythings too fragile and falls off if I even look at it funny. I cant imagine trying to run a small paintbrush over them.

A comic accurate 90's Ghost rider is really one of my biggest wants.

Heres a good look at the coat and gloves:

I think the best bet would be to have a model for the shoulder piece and a decal for the jacket, I am remodeling the gloves and belt, and will work on the shoulders

could you link a picture of the jacket?

Still need a solution for spiked gloves/the spikes on his shoulders. Sculpting tiny spikes is killing me.

Let me see what I can figure out.

What's randoms arm, who is random?

July 11, 2015

Aztek's helmet, Random's Arm, ant Thor's unworthy axe are all up for order on Shapeways

July 10, 2015

Aztek's helmet and Random's arm should be up tonight. Shapeways is offering free shipping on orders placed before 7/12 I believe

Damn Dave, you are doing a tremendous job with the Masters of the Universe! I finished off Skeletor the other day, and he looks great; I've got to finish the eyes on Tri-Klops, but I'm very happy with him as well. Gotta get the Trap Jaw parts next.

I was wondering if you might be able to do Aztek's helmet; he's a cult DC Comics hero, created by Grant Morrison, if you're not familiar with him. Here's what he looks like:

He has a Justice League Unlimited figure that might be a great reference point. I'd appreciate it!
