i started on the right gauntlet this weekend:

it's all styrene right now - but i will cast it in fiberglass with an opening hinge. The leather ring on the top of the gaunt will be made separately.

but i need a better pic of this area:

I couldn't get that detail at MOM - as it was facing away from the glass. Anyone have a better pic¿
 
WOW! Those look great. Very nice work. Keep posting pics as you progress.

Looks great, Dallas. In fact, it looks exactly like the one I did the first time. Look at the following picture:

See how the top edge is at an angle and the bottom edge leaves the detail you are looking for at an angle? I ended up resculpting to get a more spial effect at the bottom. This is the best picture of the detail you are looking for that I could find.

That's really nice! Did you make it out of aluminum? It doesn't look like painted sintra...

they aint gonna be the styrene that they are now. The originals are fiberglass - these will be fiberglass :) Remember - i'm trying to get as close to 100% accurate as possible :D

DCB, if you come up with any ideas on the upper left gauntlet cuff, please share. This one has had me stumped aside from sculpting it out of sclupy or something. =)

Wow! I think it looks great, although I am not a big Zam fan so I don't know about the accuracy :)
