Скачать или смотреть Building an Eridian (Rocky from Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir)

I LOVE Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, and Rocky the Eridian is my most favorite space alien ever! I wanted to build a life-size model of Rocky, so I could have him with me when I cosplay Ryland Grace. I built a box for the body, made supports inside the box with pool noodles, threaded wire through the pool noodles and built the arms on the wires. I paper mache'd over everything, then tried using ceiling texture to make the rocky skin texture. That was a fail, and I ended up scraping that off. I used black primer over everything, then used a stone-textured spray paint that worked well. I made the shirt out of a polyester fleece pullover, and dyed it green with watered down acrylic paint. When everything was dry, I put the shirt on Rocky and was happy with the result. When Project Hail Mary is released next year as a movie, I can't wait to see if my model is anything near what Rocky will look like. This project was so much fun! Happy Happy Happy! Thanks for watching my video... *peace*! #projecthailmary
