Bossk Bossk Progress Thread

[CombatBaby]

It looks like agood start... from what I've noticed, it look slike the actor's hands don't even come to Bossk's wrist... Bossk has very long arms. Also I've always thought it looked like both the left and right Bossk arms were tha same. In other words, there would only be one mold and both the left and right are the same cast... anyway, just my 2 cents

Now that I look at them, it's very possible. The end fingers don't have any definite pose to prove they are right or left.

They were lazy with a lot of other things, like how many people believe only one shoulder bell mold existed for stormtroopers because of that curve on the end. If this is the case I may alter the hand to go either way, if no one would doubt the accuracy. No point in doing a run of these if people won't be happy with them.

I think you just about nailed it in the last pic there bro. Only thing I was wondering, are there slight "webs" , (like a frog) on the original hands??? In most pics, it almost seems as if there might be. I'm sitting here with my gentile giant bossk sculpt. This thing definately has webbing in between the fingers!!!! Just somethign to think about Again, looking awesome!!

I do have some webbing in there now, hard to tell from a straight on picture. I will expand it once I even out the fingers. I'm thinking SaxeCoburg is onto something when he brought up the point that there might just me one hand design for both arms. I will probably go this route, simply because it gives me more time to put detail into the arm, than it would if I sculpted two seperately. Plus, it will keep the cost down, because I won't need two seperate molds (and any of use who make stuff know, silicone isn't that cheap)

I life casted my forearms up to my wrist to start this sculpt off, so I'm hoping the final product fits well.

Since there are only 3 digits on the claw to work with I'm hoping they won't look too goofy when my hands move inside

Ya I just meant where is arms are super long. The actors hands are in his forearm lol.

Maybe Bossk just suffers from inflamation in the wrists?

How much more cowbell does it need?

Seriously now, it's been bugging me last night about the shape of the middle digit and after seeing the other responses I needed to start fixing it. Still no detail in the forearm. I want to get everything smooth and set before I start some ridiculous scales. If I learned one thing from 5 semesters of drawing and anatomy it's that no matter how detailed something is, if the proportions are off it's going to look wrong.

I think it's getting there.

Post comments if you have them

I've got a fever, and the only remedy is MORE COWBELL BABY!

I think you've done a great job, great overall improvement. According to my ref pics the left and right are the same. If your hand was in the glove basically you would group your 3 fingers (index, middle and ring) into the middle Bossk finger with your own thumb and pinky in the side fingers. This way you could handle your blaster and do other things. Good work, this project is great!

Just wondering where this project has gone. I am researching and designing a Bossk myself. This one is looking pretty good...

It´s like hell
But there´s enough space inside the mask to open the eyes ;-)

Hi,
I used a black imitation leather for the black vest.

The white flak vest is made by Phil Falter,

here´re some links of his finished vest:

Now I´am still working on the metall parts...

Eyes look great, Nice squint to them. C

 

[Satxer]

So the big question is...where do you see out of it from? And also...are you doing runs? ROFL just kidding about doing runs, but do you use the eyes to see out of?

Hi, I cut out the latex eyes of the mask and replaced them with sunglases. And yeah, I can see through it.
Here´s a pic with the original eyes and my old mask....

Thanks Sven
