Project Jungle Hunter is meant to be an old school Hunter's Lair build project. We are so fortunate to have this ultracal mold of the original predator. The mold having been made at Stan Winston's shop back in the day of an original head. Doesn't get any closer to the original than this. But he has no mandibles... Well that's where we come in. Let's rebuild it in whatever ways we want. Enjoy. This will be fun to follow.

Hopefully this is the right place to show off my awsome costume building skills 🤣😆 I got a 3D printer for Christmas last year and have always thought the Predator suit was absolutly awsome piece of kit so I thought I'd have a go. After a few months of playing with the printer, it's an Elegoo Neptune 2D2 with dual extruders and 220mm x 220mm print bed it was time to start, lets build a Preddy mask! This is what I came up with, (STL files stolen off the net) ...... After spending some time researching various painting techniques and spending £125 on a half decent air compressor and air brush (which to be honest I didnt really need at the moment) I bought a c…

For years i was asked if i had considered a "custom" predator , i had always resisted. well after 12 different predator head sculpts. and a certain event being planned i decided timing is everything so why not. this will chronicle the build, and i will post failures and successes along the way. to start off here is the head, i have been through 4 changes i believe until this point, and i still have a lot of refining to do assuming i do not change my mind again. the plan was to be faithful to the original design but different. and i think that directive messed with my own head. following the head i started tinkering in 3d design and 3d kit bashed some things togethe…

I started this project in 2010 and still working on it. The torso was the first thing I got from Ablary I don’t know who made it but I fell in love with it, P1 Mask is Bob Bagy open mouth, forearm hands from Bob Bagy ( Mr. Black suit ) he was working on, legs Scott Marshall, dreads Bambooie and beads, p2 style. Feet I think were Monster room? I’ll put more pics up of weapons at some point. Everything painted by Bob Bagy. Necklace snapping turtle bones out of my pond I did, backbone sling deer vertebrae from my back hay field.

Hi hunters! Started my Fugitive build this week. So I started with buying the Fugitive bio mask (with attached dreads) and Pred body suit of spandex. The sculpt on the bio mask is decent but the dreads were hollow and WAY to short. No way those are going to "stick around". So I cut them. Going to purchase some EVA foam dowels, cut them to have those indentations(?) and plastidip them before painting them matte black. Probably going to make the dread rings out of 1mm foam as well. As for the Pred body suit, I'm going to more than likely using some black and dark brown fabric to paint the skin just to give it some of that "scaly"(?) feel. Speaking of the b…

So far I’ve made some new weapons, got my first latex body suit , and soon will have a new mask but for now my og avp rubies mask will do for now. I love how it came out got abit of a issue with my lower back showing when I bend so might make a sash to go around my waist to fix that but other then that I’m absolutely happy with it ! I feel like I came off the big screen, Hope you all like it too !Think I found my new profile picture lol this suit had a little part of my favorite predators seen on the big screen. All of them mashed up to creat my armor for my Ritual hunter Eka ” You can't see the eyes of the demon, until him come callin'.” -king Willie predator 2

Hello Hunters!!! I wanted to share my WIP of a statue for a client's collection. Since nowdays is hard to find the right parts, specially for a Mr. Black (no skins, chest or shoulder armor) i was pointed on the direction of Tony Ackerman and scored some armor from him. I am using p2 skins as a base, p1 head. I am using as inspiration not the Berserker suit how it was in the movie, but how it is now. At the KNB studio. If it still there... thought i saw it getting auctioned, anyways lol To the video. Regards Chris (inkfxtionstudios)

This is a new build I am doing for a client, the original idea was a brother boar styled build but that changed a little. The body will be as you can see from the pics p2 orientated but the paint will be dark, dank tribal styled similar to the pics I've attached.. At the moment I've parts arriving and and I'm playing with some small trophies but over the coming weeks I should have a lot more.

So my personal build..... During one of our group chats, Lee, marzan, George, Mr. Miller, gene, Scott and Rob it was decided that we were going to hit dragon con 2023... Loads of time..... Yea right. So the plan, I've always liked the tribal, barbarian styled builds. Sure look at my first one flesh hunter. The viking predator from predator hunting grounds had been calling to me. So at the moment I'm in research and sourcing mode. The armour is being 3d designed it will just be a case of finding someone in Ireland that can print it for me. Skins, head hands and feet I have ideas already one. Furs and. Chainmail I a…

Hello all, I have a bunch of suit parts. Bunch of ideas and no solid direction. Was thinking maybe I do a Boar suit. (already done that once) OR I do a Samurai Predator suit (already did that as well). Maybe you can see why I am a bit stumped. I am trying to find that inspiration or spark that gets you jazzed to build a suit. So to try and push this forward I am posting the suit pieces I have. Almost as a suit palette to brainstorm from. Would love to hear some ideas.

Soooooo you crazy bunch have tweeked my nose and got my butt into kinda building a new PRED. I’ve had a concept in mind for a few years and I’ve had the head for a while. It’s raw at the min but the pics show it painted up. Okay m going to go waaaaaay left field on my new build !! I aim to utilise the skills I’ve learned since building my last suit and other projects since then !! Like using a muscle suit like I have in Batman & upper body suit in Jason Voorhees. Also I love the lightness & crisp details in my Batman gaunts !!! So loads to ponder over and I’ll see where I go and in it !! Loads of UV tats I’m thinking as well !! I’ve added a pi…

It's been years, years that I've said "I need a build a suit, for either to wear or for display". Well I had the small opportunity that jumped out at me and took it. Now I think it's time for a good custom, some thing different. I'm unsure with the color scheme, I'm seeing elder colors or a mix of Lost Hunter (snake) kinda vibe. Man! it's great to post in this category, was always jelly with everyone's awesome builds.... The (Belt) will hold some vintage 1960s bags that Ive bought on eBay. Think they look like some thing the Hunter would carry. I will dress them up over time. Belt and bags eBay. (Skulls) I didn't paint these, but will be in the mix of stuff…

Greetings hunters! I am putting together another custom based off of the Samurai Predator concept drawings from Rob, back on the original lair. These drawings are still to this day, some of the best concepts and imagination to come to the hobby. I am attempting to create the alpha of the group...Izo. I have started gathering some parts with the help of a few of the old timers and vets of this group and the old Liar forum. This will be a slow but hopefully steady build with a completion date of June 2023. With age getting the best of me and the dedication and effort these suits take, this will build we probobly be my last. I always said if I built another, it would…
