The rack

[ASC Mclaren]

Another weekend, another alpha build. This weekend's build is the rack. This is a design I have been planning for awhile. Also, I did not alpha this in the white. I am getting more familiar with Gimp, so I went for broke. It is not finished, so if you like it, stay tuned.

Looking good! You just need a figure being "stretched" ....

This is COOL!!!thumbsup
Once this is finished, the Site staff will "FINALLY" have something to put the spammers and pirates on!
Am I going to need to start a category in the RESOURCE Section for medieval torture devices (in the near future)?

"Cardinal Biggles, tie him to the rack!"

This would go perfect with my Aurora Monster scenes!
Fantastic!
Thanks!

Except, the Aurora Monsters are 1:13 scale, and I work in 1:18

 

[JimZ]

Close enough. I can "stretch" something to fit. LOL.

So. I was completely dissatisfied with the shackles, and I think that the rack is too wide. I have re-designed the shackles (Both the ankles and the wrists). I have also reduced the width from 2.66" to 2". I have been playing more in Gimp, so I have a fun new texture for the beta rack. I hope to have the revisions printed after work today.

Can't wait to see it!

If I may be so bold, how about an Iron Maiden (not Margaret Thatcher...) next?

That is high on the list. But, that is a more complicated subject (All the curves). I have played with Iron Maiden designs in CATIA and Rhino 5 but nothing I'm real happy with. So probably not this year...

For some reason, I expected to see a pic of Dolly Parton when I open this thread!

A little teaser. I should be able to work on it this weekend. If I can get it to set up as two letter instead of one tabloid...

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

GOOD LUCK with it!
I hope it all works out well for you!

As opposed to i-raq?

 

[zathros]

Definitely as opposed to "i-raq". (not the people though, I've met too many who have suffered horrors by their supposed countrymen.)

It is really taking shape and coming together nicely!!!

 

[zathros]

Ironic to think if that had been used as an orthopedic device, it could have helped a few backs out instead of destroying them!!

You rack is coming out great, and it looks wooden, which was the point, I know, but it really looks great!
