<p>That's quite a process John, but what you're doing is looking great!!!!! I don't think anyone has tried to create the Cylon from the re-imagined BSG series. Your work is cutting edge without a doubt.</p>
<p>BY YOUR COMMAND......I mean.......SO SAY WE ALL!!!!!</p>

<p>Hey, JR!</p>
<p>I just remembered yesterday after I left. BONDO! My Uncle has always been into fixing up automobiles and reselling them. They always use Bondo to fill in what can not be undented. That stuff would be perfect for lots of hardened body parts, or body armor, or even models. Just smear it evenly over a surface like 1/4 inch plywood or cardboard, and then sand in the cosmetics. Anyway just an idea. You can get bondo at Wal-Mut or places that sell auto-repair related items. …</p>

<p>Looks good and like you've got a lot of work cut out for you. I believe I remember reading on how they made the body armor for Star Ship Troopers. As memory serves they used Styrofoam and shaved it down for the originals and then molded it for rubber copies. I could be wrong. Also I see some folks are using cardboard and foam rubber like is used to fill in cracks in houses, and then shaving that down. For something a bit sturdier maybe this plywood and a good foam layer shaved down would do.…</p>

I like the plaster idea. Casts are pretty tough.</p>
<p>ALSO...This guy is a REALLY GOOD model maker. He's a pro at this sort of stuff. Maybe y'all could touch base. He's made some very life like models from scratch with various rubber and plastic polymers, etc. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ray.lawson?fref=pb&hc_location=friends_tab&pnref=friends.all" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/ray.lawson?fref=pb&hc_location=friends_tab&pnref=friends.all</a></p>
