alrighty, so since my apoxie scult came yesterday, I finally got started on Ed's automail! His elbow and hand still need to be dremeled, but this is what I have that's mostly done, his shin and his forearm. Neither peices have been sanded yet, so keep that in mind. Incase you don't know, this is what I'm trying to make: Anyway, on with the pictures! ARM: (continued....)
Ooooh my gosh, I LOVE this! ^o^ I made myself a human sized arm automail for fun (I'm a dork, hehe~) and this is awesome. 8D It looks very nice. ^w^ I actually need something like this done to a Dollshe boy's arm... One of my characters lost his right arm and has a neat mechanical one in it's place. Problem is it need to be detachable. (I don't think that going to happen though, ;o; ) But it looks very nice! 8D I love FMA~
Umm, I don't think this is the right forum. This is the place for already completed and sold commissioned works, I think ^^;
Blue Eternity: Ack, thanks! xDD I made myself an automail arm too, but I'm remaking it in nicer looking plastic. Kei-chan: .....Really? O____O *fails*
Yup, now it's moved :3 It's looking great so far! Very nice details, are you gonna mod the hand, too?
Yup! I've got it all apoxied, I jsut need a smaller dremel bit to carve it out, if you know what I mean. but I did successfully get rid of the fingernails. xD
Mmmm so many pictures of shirtless Ed...huh what...oh right right the automail it looks amazing so far, as you said it still needs sanding and what not but what you've got there looks pretty good. I can't wait to see the next set of progress shots (or to see it when it is all finished).
Woo! Good luck with your project!! I recently got a cp Shiwoo to be an Ed *hopeless fangirl x3* and my El's being turnt into Roy >0> x333 Just waiting for all his eyes, wigs, face etc to be done. I did want to make him automail too! Buh I been trying to work out a way to do it cause I dun wanna do anything too permanent on him :< buh..yays for Edo dolls! x3 Can't wait to see him all done, I remember seeing your little Edo aaages ago on the arrivals forum, he's cute!
AUGH. I must see your El. NOW. He and Edo can poke fun at eachother. And he is cute, isn't heeee? 33333
heehee x3 he dun look much like Roy atm :/ I'm waiting on his wig thats taking foreva!! I ordered it weeks ago as well, buh apparantly it was only posted a couple of days ago ¬¬ mehs. Buh I shall show ya once it comes x3 lol they can! As soon as I got Ed home, I stood him up next to Roy to see how short he was xD and he decided to headbutt Roy xD then he knee'd him in the crotch xDD I thought they'd be all cuddly together but all they done so far is abuse each other xDD
You going to any cons soon? xDDD They should totally hang out. Any pictured of Ed? And ohmigod. That's AWESOME. xDDDDD
Ahh I'm going to Japan Expo in july buh I'm in the UK ;_; buh on a lighter note, Roy's wig came today xD I was literally taking pics of them just now when the camera died :E So it's gotta recharge them I should have something ta show x3 I'm so glad both of them are living up to their personalities xD
Whooo lookin pretty good. I cant believe i didn't see this before! This looks great. I can't wait to see it finished! LOVA YA ED! TC
really cool so far D: just a tiny crit though. Ed's automail is meticulously created, and the edges for the grooves you've made are not quite straight. I think it would look even more awesome if you made the edges and things more straight/even.
Keep up the good work, It looks nice so far. And I hope you are using pictures that show alot of details when making it. ^-^;
I'm really digging this mod job, is there any info on if the OP has done anymore detailing on the arm and leg for her Ed-boy?
How awesome that you are making your own automail for your doll! Really cool, I wish you so much luck and I look forward to see the finish results.
thats really kewl! i was wondering how you would go about making automail for a doll. the maerial youre using to make his automail, does it not break off from the resin ?
It would come off only if you pried it off with a crowbar, I believe; epoxy bonds really well to resin
Cool! Are you planning to make the later version of his automail as well? And let's hope Ed doesn't get this broken as often as his manga/anime counterpart... XD
Hey guys, Being that this thread is almost three years old. I'm pretty sure it is either done, or a scrapped project. Don't expect updates here or questions to be answered.
Hey everyone! Oh geeze, old thread. This guy was eventually finished and sold to another owner here on DOA. I haven't seen him since then, but keep your eyes out! Thanks for all the awesome comments!
