thx nk, but do wait till we all have done our work, mind can be changed along the way. the best project should win.
thx mike, a long way to go still. its not just gonna be a rifle and knife here.
i will however do my best. am working on the 8902A Rifle still. the ram is mounted and framed in such a way that you can see it, even if slightyly adapted the slide head on top and is painted to match the whole rifle metalic look.
i modified and stuck some parts from my nephews gun too and am making a red dot sight for it to mount between the ram. made some new additions too to frame the ram adequately more to come.

Hey Erik, I am then ALI-en thats lruking in the shadows, between the trees and beyond the sillhouettes. I will be watching the Origines because I like their imaginations and the story.
I like the poetry and philosophy we can phantasize in our projects.

nice mike. are you gonna paint them or leave them like that. and whats the dioptrine, do they have night vision too 🙂

Eehaaa, so I am in, Thanks Andy for fixing the problem. Maybe it was just my browser.
Well guys, firstly, thanks Thermaltake/Andy for giving me the chance to battle it out again and this time against some top notch, top gun modding warriors.
MY theme is as you probably deduced from th these pics and the lil video
RAMBO, or rather RAM - BO
Its leaning towards the future Rambo rather than the past ones, while he is remains honest to his reputation and style of weapons as well as combat, they have evolved a bit as you will see, without loosing the Rambo touch of course.
As soon as the Tough Ram has arrived then I will dig my knife in them,,,,,,,eh I mean mein dremel of course..
More to come.

hi guys, its update time again, this time i can show you one of the reservoir pumps almost ready, as i started off it was the gauntlet shape i wanted. and now its skirted with a roman leg guard skirt of leatherr too. by unlacing it i can take it off too. like in real life :-)
it was a matter of leather strips and eyelet rivetting as well as shoe laces and braid cutting and sticking.
a small video is at the end..

 

Get well soon

thanks everyone and stuart and jos, yes i will try to get some updated pictures online and show some more progress. and i will of course carry on building too.
this is gonna be a real gladiator when its finished. i promise that.
and because its a competition, even though i have access to automation (laser, cnc and 3dp) it will be 100% handmade :-)

Sorry to hear that my friend. To me you are already the winner  

Sorry to hear about your wife. Focus on your family as they are number 1. You've already shown so much passion and skill in this build already.

the level of detail of it finest !!!

this is just too awesome! definetly want this one to win! 

thanks pete, i appreciate it.
she is out of danger now and back home. i feel better too knowing she is recovering, now i can get back to the mod.
unfortunatley i will not be finished on time but promise to finish it over the next weeks and months.
i managed to get some stain on the valerium shades

 
apart from that i also started the wooden strip covering in the front. i found dosme sheap snake leather belts which i am changing to match the theme.
am sure they will contrast well when the wood has its proper color. :-)

Love the concept. Make it sharp bro.

Hi Ali,

nope not Gears of War... I know that you created a Gears of War mod and It's my favorite actually  but what I mean is #### of War... about Greek Gods. If you have a mod like this that would be really amazing  

 

thanks guys i hope to finish in time, that my biggest problem now.
anyway, here a small update, put some studs on the armor. will make the gauntlets for the reservoirs today.

Beautiful detail! I am very excited to see the completed project! Good luck, I am rooting for you!

Looks great! Can't wait for its completion!

I can't imagine how you will build if someone ask you to mod a Rig with a #### of War theme... that must be something to look forward to  

very nice detailed work
keep it up Ali

A+ for dem modeling skillz, yo!

T H I S   I S  S P A R T A !!!

daaammmmmnnnn, i will sure give you 100 marks for the best pictures so far.
my best will be when tzhe mod is finished, tiell then its worklog quick n dirty camera pics...
good luck

cool job
