sskunky Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) 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? Edited January 12, 2012 by sskunky Quote
vecspeed12 Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 Thats pretty cool. If you dont mind me asking. How much is it to chrome something like this? This would be a cool display piece. Quote
Tray[TK] Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 bad a$$.. very cool. Thnanks for sharing. Quote
Verne Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 Awesome. I really like it. I'm really curious to know how much it cost to chrome an helmet like this one? For the decals, I guess black would be very cool (it's what I used for the chrome TE ROTJ I made http://imageshack.us.../dscn3482x.jpg/ ) Quote
PGHtrooper21 Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 Mark, That is AWESOME! Any plans to "Chrome" a whole suit of Armor? Andy Quote
tkrestonva[TK] Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 That is pretty cool, and would make a unique display piece. Quote
sskunky Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Posted January 11, 2012 Thanks guys... Verne that looks great... Where did you get the black decals? As for price I would have to ask the platers what it would normally cost... I had this as part of a large lot done. I had a load of Indiana Golden idols Vac metalized and asked them to throw this in with them.... These are the idols.... Quote
sskunky Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Posted January 11, 2012 I am thinking of getting a whole suit done but I can imagine it being quite an expensive job...... If someone buys my weathered armour I have up for sale I might consider going for it. Quote
NastyNoah[TK] Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 You have got to do the entire suit in chrome. I am in awe and jealous !!!!!!!!! Quote
bobojuice Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 Awesome! Those idols ain't half bad either. Wish I could come up with the scratch for one. Quote
firebladejedi[TK] Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 The lid looks totally awesome blinged up like that Ps love the idols - have any spare? Quote
sskunky Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Posted January 11, 2012 The lid looks totally awesome blinged up like that Ps love the idols - have any spare? Just picked another 10 up today.... I have a sale thread over on the Replica prop forum.... Quote
