Very much this!

thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words. I will be posting another update tomorrow.

Two legs done.

BRILLIANT! Good show, old bean. Are you building it to sell or display? Can't wait to see it finished.

What other things lime this have you built?

Thank you, This one is for display and to help me get the templates all correct, then I will be building a few more for sale.
As for other things I have built out of foam I have done a life size R2, Wall-e, proton pack, Flux capacitor, Horus headdress from StarGate SG-1, I am also working on an Ironman costume, Master Chief costume and K9 from Doctor Who the list goes on and on.
I have a facebook page here with lots of pictures, info and how to tips. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Foamtast ... 760?ref=hl

First of all, nice work with Ravage

As for Horus there is only one response

Here is the latest. I have finished all four legs and feet, they need a little cleaning but that's nothing. All I need to do now is the tail, bottom jaw and underbelly. Then I need to build a base of some sort. I am going to supporting Ravage with a wooden poll (Eventually I will get a clear acrylic tube) the poll will be coming out around the middle of him and be fixed to a small flat wooden base, high enough that his feet will rest on the floor but not actually support him.



Here are all the pieces for the feet.



And here is everything balanced together. I can not glue the feet to the legs or the legs to the body yet as they need to be painted.

Fantastic stuff. Love the Ghostbusters backpack as well!

You do some really amazing work, sir. I would love to have all of these for my man cave. If only I had the skills. Outstanding!

Oh wow, everything you have made is awesome! Wall-E is fantastic! This Ravage looks amazing! I look forward to seeing the finished version and would love to some day see Ravage and K9 side by side! Great work

This is incredible. Has it taken a lot of time?

Mind-blowing, jaw dropping, epic coolness!
Ravage is just amazing so far and with my also being a Star Wars fan, I'm also geeking out over your R2-D2 pic. You have quite an impressive talent there. I can't wait to see how Ravage looks with the final paint job and the display stand.

I can only say this is beyond comprehension, and genuinely one of the most amazing things I have ever seen! Made even more impressive by being able to see the construction and work going into it!

Glad you are all liking my build. In hasn't take too much time. I only do 2-3 hours a day 2-3 days a week. So far in total around 15 hours of solid building.
here is an update.
Finished his Jaw and hydraulics.

How's the build coming? I can't wait to see the finished project.

WOW!!!!

I have been able to do some painting, all the undercoating has been done, now I just need to do the final paint job.

Amazing work! It looks great!

Like many others, I can't wait to see the finished product!

Well, the weather was a little windy but warm enough to finish the painting. I have just finished gluing him all together.
He is able to support his own weight, but I will be making a stand for him with a clear rod for support as over time the legs will start to bend.
