Rebels Rex WIP


Recommended Posts

This is a personal project of mine. No CRL as of yet. The armor differs dramatically from Clone Wars Rex. I had thought I would just use my animated clone parts, but upon comparison, I realized I need to sculpt my own to get a closer match. 

 

 

I'm using the pink poly-foam from Home Depot. It's quick and easy for sculpting. 50 grit sandpaper cuts it like butter. It's messy.

BTW...there is a CRL for this character...on the RL board.

 

This version of Rex is not 501st eligible.  Here's one that is approved for COR:

Now that being said, he had to mod a lot of his parts. If you're doing an armor kit...color me excited!  Looks like a great start thus far!

It makes sense. I didn't even think about affiliation. I guess I'll never get it approved...

A little bit closer today. 

 Sculpting from a cartoon isn't easy. Every single angle is different. Sometimes things are different sizes depending on the angle. Since nothing can be scaled properly from screen shots, I'll just find a happy medium.

I was certain the belt and boxes would be a challenge because they seemed to be seamless and pliable.

I used the same technique that I came up with for my FOTK pauldron.
