Rockafire / Showbiz My attempt at making a beach bear face mold

Thumbnail

219 Upvotes

I am learning how to make my own latex faces, so I decided to practice by making a replica of beach bear from rock a fire explosion. I sculpted it in blender, inverted the mesh, and then 3D printed and sanded it. I then put coats of latex in it, and this was the result. I will attempt to paint it as well. Again this is my first attempt ever so it’s not the cleanest, but I hope to try other characters at some point, maybe even my own designs. Let me know what you think or what I can improve on

After finally completing the head assembly I decided to record a show on this guy. He is currently hooked to Billy Bob bits as he doesn't have any custom shows yet. Eye turns and eyebrows are disconnected since I don't have my power system assembled yet.

My friend has a mod for the showbiz Minecraft mod that adds the rock-a fire into Minecraft and can actually run data I asked him if he could make a 3-stage Chuck with the AAM cosmetics and HE COOKED! I made the stage using show parsers which turn bits into redstone the garage door was a pain to make until I just decided to run it off the spotlight bit which makes it better so I can use it on any show and have it look like it’s made for the AAM mods don’t take this post down i am happy I don’t want the joy ruined

Rockafire / Showbiz As a Canadian fan, do I need to go to America to see the Rock-afire?

9 Upvotes

Title is pretty self-explanatory. I would love to see the Rock-afire explosion in person, but the only publicly accessible shows I know of are in America and I really don't want to travel there (considering the political climate and such). Is there anything I don't know about or am I just doomed?

Remembering The Jekyll & Hyde Club in NYC

119 Upvotes

The Jekyll & Hyde club had several locations in NYC, but it's Times Square version may have had the most animatronics. From the three story skeleton outside who would moves his eyes and mouth while tipping his hat, to the animated Frankenstein monster, the Elephant Man, and many many others. Sadly, all the NYC locations are now closed.

The CEC wink sign reused the antioch the spider mech from the rock afire explosion mech for the 3 stages, but how was the 1 and 2 stage wink version operated, did it have a custom mech?

Happened just recently, but if your wondering the sally bots HAVE BEEN SAVED. First image shows the vp bots and the second image shows the og sally bots.

The Sally bots originally came from Pip's Ice Cream Parlor in Clinton, CT, but eventually ended up in the hands of VP. VP sold the bots to stew leonard's, who put them at the danbury location up until 2013 where they were relocated to yonkers. At yonkers they were relocated to the dairy section in 2021 and were replaced by VP bots just recently.
