Han Solo in Carbonite Project WIP. Allan's Big Prop done,Results page 5
« on: January 24, 2011, 05:47:49 PM »
Thanks to Chris S. for inspiration and Chatting with Rob F. I have embarked on this Project with the finish date by Spring.   Today I picked up from Post Office Han Solo in Raw form.   I also contacted a Woodworker with a CNC machine to program the cuts to the box. I wont be getting the wood till he is able to finish the frame in 3 weeks.  So I will have to wait till then for an update, but here are the start pictures.

Update

I just picked up the wood from Woodworker. He used plans to program CNC machine to cut.  These plans were from HIC group and RPF.




I trimmed foam from back of Han to lay flat.. The gaps will be filled in with Bondo and putty.

As Chris did with his. I'm doing many shots. Today I picked up 2 Gallons of Elmer White Glue. A bondo to texture as well as well as to fill seam.

More pictures. I put box together. I used to 2x2 block in the corners and Wood screws and glue. I will put stringers on tomorrow to stabilize middle and sides of Face board. I just put frame and Han on for effect today  :D. It is ready for Han yet.



I had the box upside down to fasten screws



Right side up.

Bondo ALWAYS over putty.  Putty dries up and shrinks/cracks over time and bondo stays solid forever

Nice progress so far
