Bossk Bossk Progress Thread

[TX7154]

Great work on your Bossk!! I too am working on one myself. I have a head, arms and hands that I was lucky enough to stumble across on Ebay. I am now in the process (in what little free time I have) to alter them to my liking. It looks like you started with the same mask i did! I am also now seeking to create the entire outfit to go with it. Flight suit and flak vest isn't a problem. All the bits and pieces that go on it are quite another story. I'll have to mold most of them from scratch I guess.

I have one question, do you, or anyone, know where to attain a Schermuly Anti-Riot Gun? A replica of it, or at least something similar to it to work with? I've searched and searched and come up empty.

I've got a completed Bossk and have been looking for a Schemuly for a couple years, but had no luck. I ended up just making my Rebley from scratch.

What is a Schemuly?

Sorry, I spelled it wrong. Schermuly.

It's an anti-riot gun that shoots gas cannisters for crowd control purposes. I'm not sure if they're still in service or not, but it is a purely police/SWAT issued weapon, not available for commercial markets, so there probably are very few of the things floating around out there.

The Schermuly is the gun used as a basis for Bossk's Rebley grenade launcher. In fact, the only additions are two M40 scopes (which are easy as pie to find) and some sort of doodad on the end of the barrel which is super easy to fabricate.

My wisdom grows and grows (a long long way)

Thx for the info.

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

I think I have one of your old masks. I will be repaining it though.

Hey that Bossk is looking good Sven! Looking forward to see the whole costume come together!

Nice.

I like the resculpt on the hand.

I was always under the impression that the ESB hands were the same on both side (a real time saver, eh?). I missed who said it earlier up top, but his arms are really long in the movie. If you look at the distance between a human shoulder and elbow, then elbow and wrist, you'll notice they are pretty similar. On most people anyway. Then look at the pictures and make the same comparison on Bossk.

Go-go Gadget forearms.

 

[getoninja]

wow, came out so well, awesome job!!

 

[Lokan]

Does anybody know where I could get a Bossk Mask?

 

[Timmer]

If Trandoshans were real beings somewhere, I don't see how evolution would have their arms like that. No opposable thumb, super long forearm, I wish the creature designers had just given Bossk a more human arm. It doesn't even look like they could blow their noses. They'd need an extra elbow on their arm.



Oh WOW, I just realized how old this thread was.......

Meesa embarassed...

 

[Lokan]

Yeah, sorry for the necro. But seriously, I can't find a mask anywhere :/

This is the guy on Ebay that we got our mask from.
