    Helmet day has arrived: The last couple of days were spent further trimming and sanding. I ordered a bottle of reefer yellow and I think I am going to redo the knees with that. I did a quick test fit with the flight suit and flak vest to get the stud locations and drilled out the...

    Thanks guys, I have a better array of tools now then when I first got the armor. With a bit more confidence I cut out some more on the knees and collar armor. I'll sand it down a bit more then touch up the paint again Sent from my iPhone

    I've reworked the knees again, I can never seem to be completely satisfied with the way they turn out I'm happy with the upper arm pieces at the moment As always I'm open to critiques on all the pieces, here is the chest and cod pieces And finally the weathering on the flight...

    I've managed to get some painting done and I've been playing with installing magnets for the closures. What I've learned so far is that one pair of magnets will be more than enough. I had initially planned on two pair in each gauntlet but very quickly realized I would never be able to get them...

    I was able to get the hinges on and got them primered The flame thrower stayed lined up pretty good, however the rocket launcher went a little askew. I'm hoping the magnets will be able to pull the halves into alignment. Once I get some more time I plan to start laying paint on them. My...

    I began trying to lay the fiberglass in the gauntlets Saturday and that was a complete disaster. Only one of the halves were anywhere close to being usable. After I would get the matting in and the resin covering everything I tried putting them in the holder I made so they wouldn't expand or...

    Since it's another nice day and I have the day off I figured I'd get to work on the gauntlets and flight suit. I'm going to start with a misting of black spray paint to begin with and see how that turns out. For the gauntlets I'm going to try and follow this tutorial...

    The helmet and paint job comes from Uhbif here on the boards. I had a helmet was was going to attempt to paint myself but in the interest of time I opted to buy one already painted. The girth belt I did myself with one bought off amazon. A bit of stain and some spray paint took care of that...

    I was able to get some paint on the girth belt, I may try to touch it up with a bit more of the rust color My helmet should be getting finished up within the next few weeks, hopefully that'll give me the motivation to start working to finish up my other painting Sent from my iPhone

    I'm still waiting on the jet pack, hopefully that should be here in the next couple of weeks. That will likely go down towards the bottom of the priority list of things to do Sent from my iPhone

    So I suck at posting, quite a bit of stuff has made it in since my last post. I have the flight suit from Arkady, now that it's warming up I can start weathering it Boots from MOW, still need to weather those as well Gauntlets and armor still has to be painted. I got my stuff then shortly...

    Thanks Simon, I saw that he offered those so I'll probably pick up a set off of him. New orders are one of MOW's new capes and a few pieces from machine craft replicas; knee darts, gauntlet darts, jet pack beacon, and toe spikes. My helmet arrived the other day, not sure of the lineage of it...
