Are you planning on making your own version of Star Trek, but don't have the kind of money J. J. Abrams has? Don't worry. Erik shows you how to make a futuristic space suit for less then dollars. Plus special guest Rudy Jahchan of Galacticast!Less[-]
Again,SWEET!!!Hey,if you can make a spacesuit this good then i bet you can easily make an HEV suit from the video game Half-Life!I challenge you that you can do in under 50$!!
Hey Erik! "Where does he get all his wonderful stuff?" Where do you junk shop, dude? What did you use to fabricate your miniature set?(airlock)Is the ship's commissary a miniature or is it a picture of a redressed real interior? Is that the 5 gallon bucket helmet(How did you make?!?) from the spaceship webisode? (Nerd Alert!)By the way, Gary shows up in the background of the rope and glove stills of the shopping list. Keep up the good work!
Hey, thanks guys for actually taking the spacesuit request from me! Our first movie "A Cosmonaut Story" should be up on youtube within a couple months. Unfortunately that movie is going to have the crappy spacesuits I made before I sent the request. Either way, thanks! I'll be sure to use this process for the next space film I make!

Where did the "ping" go? I liked the "ping" at the shopping list!
i noticed that for the greenscreen erick used a bunch of junk for his footage. Like the thing the space man was working on was a toy lightsaber. look closely.
Excellent work Erik! As I too am building a suit at the same time as you were, mine is slightly different but we both opted to go with ainter's suits. I sprayed mine silver and added aluminum tape to sections similar to yours. I also sewed on a flag patch that I picked up at Wal-Mart. I'm still working on the gizmos and life support systems so you're way ahead of me. The helmet should look fantastic though so I look forward to seeing what techniques you used to make yours. To infinity and beyond!
I found the hidden Gary head!!! Woooh! It's in the background during the shopping list. I'm using my puppets as aliens or Galiens in a movie short i'm making. I made a puppet with a growing/shrinkin eyball, looks kinda gory. Erik, you should totally do an episode with some freaky aliens that have strange features. Also, Erik, accept my friends invite on facebook. Be my friend....
