skunky Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Hi guys, I thought you would like to see what I have been up to this week. I have been making Indiana Jones Golden idols for a couple of other forums and whilst I was at the Vac Metalizing company that did the original Idols and C3P0 coincidentally I thought why not get a TK lid chromed! Well it's not completely finished yet but you get the idea.... I haven't decided yet about decals.... What colour etc??? Or none at all?? What do you reckon?

Zon Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Nice!! Personally, I'd leave out the decals. Although I would put in mic tips and lenses. That's me though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodman Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 You gotta use mirror lenses too. I wouldnt put anything on it they just get lost in the glare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Versku Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Yeah keep it cleeeeeean :-) Or... You could fix a series of LED lights on the brow that make a red dot go left to right. Then wear it screaming "the Cylons are everywhere !!!" ;-p Kidding ! Seriously awesome look though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skunky Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 Here's a few more with the lenses, mic tips and trims.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron ram Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Looks great The flat black decals would pop on the shinny chrome Just like the the black trim and mics Are you going to have a whole. Set of armor done And how bad will it scratch up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Versku Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 The chrome really make the lid's unique shape standout. I really like your use of light and there's a couple of photos there I would pay money to have poster sized versions of ! Nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
