OK. FINALLY got to work today. Myself and another TDH member called LittleBitz worked on my build today. His build was completed a few months ago and looks OUTSTANDING. Huge thanks to him for everything.
Shopping for the supplies took us longer than I thought..and we ended up having to go to three stores to get everything. Also, the armor I ordered had a few issues..so luckily LittleBitz was able to trade me a few pieces of some spare armor he had. We also got into some weathering. We're going to be moving along every week and I'll post pics throughout the process! Anyway..
We started off with a little shopping for Maskol, an exacto knife, masking tape, sand paper, steel wool, paints, and everything else we need.
Here's some of my paint..we needed to go to a couple stores to get all the right colors.
Next we got into sanding everything (you can see LittleBitz' completed armor)
After sanding, we wiped everything down with alcohol and laid down the primer.
While we waited for that to dry, we got into weathering my boots, gloves, and cape. We also got the first layer of paint on my shin tools.
We're going to get the armor painted and hopefully finished this week, and then start on the helmet while working on other stuff. Hoping to get this build finished by summer !
Here's what we managed to get done today.
more to come soon !
