Close?

I've been staring at it too long...

Looks pretty close to me.

Looks good to me! Reminds me of the plastic  you find on dashboards and car interiors.

Looks very good except for one thing. The groove round the object ,presumably where the joint line in the mould comes, should be a raised line,otherwise the object would be locked in the mould.

There will be small screws going in from the top. Here's an updated upper half.

Does this look like a piece of injection molded plastic?

Nah! Looks like something modelled in wings. :lol:

That looks great!

Now you've uploaded that second pic - yeah it does :tt2:

Len ( It's gonna be a very nice hammer-drill from the looks of it ).

computer hud eyepiece, for my sci-fi helmet.

BTW, I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing this all come together - looks neat

Len (And what have you changed that avatar for?)

And what have you changed that avatar for?

Fran. She said she had never seen me change my avatar, ever.

Wait 'til you see tomorrows avatar, lol...

LOL

Yeah, I was thinking maybe I will change mine every one or two days as well - sort of like on a rotor basis IE: My original - A new one - My original - A new one...

Len.

I got my fave (which seems to be everyone elses fave too), but I'll change it up once in a while.

Plus, it will be a fantastic outlet for my own brand of random screwed up humor...

:scared:

Agent Smith,

If you were to be able to get 2 or 3 avatars into an animated gif and be able to change the frame rate to something real slow you might be able to have them change without doing a thing.

 I seem to recall Corel Photo Paint 8 would do something like this.

-TJ

Yeah, a long time ago I had something that compiled images to make animated gifs...Ulead Smart Saver or something like that. Used it to compile a little Bryce animation together, and have it on my front page.

Tomorrow, I'll start boolean cutting the heck out of it to stick the eyepiece part inside.

That looks really good - I'm trying to visualise how it will be placed in the completed work  :blink:

Don't tell me though - I like the suspense!

Len.

With a suit that expensive -------> can't you afford an umbrella?

Huh??

Quote - Huh??

Your avatar, man; your avatar!

(notes present lack of 'Smith avatar)

(sips Cragganmore)

Sweet red x for an avatar there AS lol.

The updated version looks pretty convincing. With a little more tex tweaking it will look superb!

BTW AS, can you have an animated gif here?

Michael

Lol...okay, took me half a day, but paul's joke finally penetrated my thick skull.

I'm having internet problems today, so that's why I had a red x for an avatar earlier. A new avatar seems to have finally made it through now.

Sans; yes you can have an animated gif, as long as its under 25kb

I just want to say that if that is pumeco then we should have went to avatars a long time ago!

There you go. I warned against the unnatural beastliness of males using female avatars. I implored, nay demanded, a rule change. But no, no one listens to me. And now look...

(cold lurgey preventing sleep)

.

It's just criminal, lol.

it's absolutely dith-picable !  

ah, booleans, how nice :)

Frack me ;-)

If anyone else get's the hot's for my avatar - I'll be left with no other option than to start an appreciation thread where you can all get it out of your system.

And Peter, stop being so obvious;

We all know the REAL reason for your obsession with my avatar.  It's because I called you "dear"...you saw my avatar...you got a boner...then you were utterly dissapointed when you saw "pumeco" above it.

Len. ( This is blatant sexual harassment this is - THANK-YOU! ) :tt2:

lol Len:) Who is that in your avatar anyway?

Uh that is not pumeco in the avatar? Well I had my bases covered to begin with I said "if" so there...

Here we go...

I know, I know - isn't it pathetic how they crawl when you have an attractive avatar - I dunno  :biggrin:

Because I haven't see Sans' around lately - I will disclose for the final time (this will be disclosure #4).

My avatar is Yulia Volkova (Musician).  Who, incidentally - you will soon be able to hear by clicking on my signature for a free .MP3 - you lucky guys!

Len.

The girl from Tatu?

Uh....not that I know about Tatu...something my girlfriend was into I think....

DA !

Errr...yeah...sure AgentSmith...I believe you

Len.

Ok I admit it - that car IS a little bit more advanced than mine...

...but that avatar is not even close to mine on an aesthetic scale.

Len.

This is starting to sound like the old Jack Brnny Show:

Jack: [poking his head through the stage curtains] Bob, will you please give me my pants back?
Bob Hope: Put your head back through there, or I'll start handing out baseballs to the audience

I really like the design and materials in that last render AS!

@TJ-Thanks for the link! That's a fascinating development  in nanomolecular reaearch!

I'm finished with the eyepiece now, I just have to make up a quick doo-dad that clips it to the helmet.

I probably won't be using the black plastic material in the final analysis, as the whole outfit seems to be leaning towards an overall brown, but the black plastic will be included in the mat collection I'm putting together for you all.

I'm looking foward to it!
