Looking great John! Are you going to offered painted sets as well? Would love to get your paintwork on this!
 
Re: [IDM Customs] BTTF 2 Marty Mcfly Air Mags, Hoverboard and Outfit Set *NEW MAGS PI

I just sent Pajji a PM so the pictures will definitely help. Thanks Pajji!

I'll make the top flared out a bit so it can fit the jeans in. Remember this thing is going to be in resin. I'll play around and try to get it in a slightly flexible material if possible because I think that would help. I'll add the wrinkles and such once it's done and the front strap "Nike" logo will be done by Corrose for a better effect that's why I didn't put it on there.

On a completely separate note, I think the hoverboard is ready for print. I don't have a HT Slim body so I would like someone with one to help on this. I need to estimate the size of the board. If someone has a slim body and check the images below of the real hoverboard and make an estimated guess, please let me know how long the board should be.

I currently estimate the total length to be 109.88 millimeter. I'm measuring it in millimeter because it's much more precise in this scale, but you can convert it to inch easily using Google. :p

The board itself will be 3.5mm, but it stands at 6mm because the back of the board is curved up slightly. (not counting the two bottom pads).

If you can guys can check and let me know if this is a good estimate, then I think we're good to go and I'll send this in to print so we can at least get the board going.

Ted,

I most likely will, but I'll have to see how much work the casting is going to be. I do all the castings and molding myself so I'm worried it might affect my timetable, but we'll see. I'll know more once I get the actual parts printed and see how involved the casting and molding will be and we'll update the thread accordingly.

Thanks John, I hope you'll be able to :pray:

I should be sending that project we spoke about next week, just waiting for some new decals to arrive this week.

Would the hoverboard be the same size as his skateboard from BTTF1? I've got Rainman's skateboard that I can measure if it would help.
 
Re: [IDM Customs] BTTF 2 Marty Mcfly Air Mags, Hoverboard and Outfit Set *NEW MAGS PI

Karamazov80, if you could, I think that would help.

I'm just guesstimating the size right now. I don't have a slim TT body so I'm just estimating the size as I think it should look with a normal HT body. The board should be the size of a typical skateboard. I used the three images above to estimate the size I have now so if someone could confirm, I think we're set to get the board going at least.
 
Re: [IDM Customs] BTTF 2 Marty Mcfly Air Mags, Hoverboard and Outfit Set *NEW MAGS PI

Well, according to the dimensions on the 1:1 hoverboard which is 28" x 8" x 3", then the hoverboard in 1/6 would be 118.5 x 33.86 x 12.7 in millimeters.

Someone should double check my math though :lecture
 
Re: [IDM Customs] BTTF 2 Marty Mcfly Air Mags, Hoverboard and Outfit Set *NEW MAGS PI

The manny body i left with you is actually a jack sparrow body. I believe the sparrow is the exact same size as the slim. Can anyone verify?
 
Re: [IDM Customs] BTTF 2 Marty Mcfly Air Mags, Hoverboard and Outfit Set *NEW MAGS PI

OK. I measured it, and it is right at 5" (so, about 127 millimeters). But I'm not sure if it is the same size as the Hoverboard relative to Marty. My Marty figure in this picture has the slim body:

I got the same calculating it out.
 
Re: [IDM Customs] BTTF 2 Marty Mcfly Air Mags, Hoverboard and Outfit Set *NEW MAGS PI

Ted, I didn't realize that was the slim body. :)

Ok checking everything again, I think we should go with Karamazov's size. I think it's better to go slightly bigger than too small. The 118.5 mm is what we'll go with so I'll get this started.

Re: [IDM Customs] BTTF 2 Marty Mcfly Air Mags, Hoverboard and Outfit Set *NEW MAGS PI

Alright guys, I sent the hoverboard in for printing so hopefully we should see it in a few weeks. Average time is about 2.5 to 3 weeks. Last stuff I printed I got back in about 20 days from the point of submission to when it came in. Will have some photos once it gets here.

I'll work on the Mags again once Pajji gets me the reference pics.
