So it's that time, I've gotten back from my trips and now I've got time to post up some of these WIPs images that I've been talking about.

Since Lan Fan had a lot of little stuff going on, I figured I'd break it down into smaller sections to make it more manageable. I also figured that posting up all of these WIP images will help when I post the Sintra tutorial that I'm still writing /sigh.

So... The Automail Hand:

I created this using wonderflex with Sintra scraps as the knuckle pieces. So this was the easiest part of the automail design. Completed in about 3 hours total, from construction to paint. This is the blessing of wonderflex, it really is quick and easy to work with.

For the paint I used rub'n'buff as a quick base coat, and did a light cover of silver paint when I painted everything else. I also added a little clearcoat as a sealant.

When I wore it I *achem* superglued the finger tip pieces on, since I get really uptight about things falling off my cosplays, and used rub and buff as the silver paint on my hand. I don't know if it is bad for me, I just did it... so I can't really give advice on that xD

:bulletyellow: MOAR Full Metal Alchemist!!

i'm glad to be of help. I've updated mywebsite with more details on the sintra process. But I think in general, any material could be used, and would have basically the same effect. Just depends on the amount of time you feel like dedicating to it.
