Projects: Cyberman Part-5


Quick update: After several attempts (pictured above), I have now finally solved the back panel issue on my Cyberman helmet. and the best thing about my solution is that you are able to simply slide the whole thing on over your head without the need for a detachable panel like the actual props used to have. It is a tight squeeze mind you (if your head is as big as mine) but, if it fits me then it'll fit the rest of you with relative ease.

This took a little longer to resolve than I'd hoped and was due to the fact that the back panel had an impact on seven connecting panels within the mask design. Each of those panels had to be reshaped in specific areas and re-tested to make sure their new shapes connected correctly when glued together again. Now that job has been completed I can simply finish those last couple of sections in the Cyberman instruction manual and that job will also be completed too.

I am still keen to use metallic card for these kits similar to what I had used for my the Klytus mask kit. Your can't print on this type of card though so the only major thing left for me to do is to custom build an embossing tool that'll indent the ribbing pattern onto the card for each of the ear sections instead.

I have chosen metallic matt silver card for an Earthshock version and a metallic chrome finish card for a Silver Nemesis version of this mask...

...Not long now - EXCITING!!! :)
