Well today I've finished my chest + ab plate. I like how the modified AB has turned out, now it fit's better in proportion with the rest of the chest armor and I think it's more accurate too... I hope you like it, I enjoy a lot doing this costume!
For wathering I used 3 kinds of Liquitex Acrylic paint (Burnt Umber, Mars Black and Raw Siena)
Here are new pics, I received the Loan Vest. I put the flak on the Sun during loads of hours so It took a greyish colour. I also sanded it and weathered it with the Raw Siena paint in some edges. Now I have to reduce de shoulders a bit because they are too big.
I'm happy how the extended edges are looking on the AB plate :
Here are more pics;
I also made the new Girth Belt with Cruzer's Bolo:
I hope you like it, and I'm sure this time this is gonna be the last JangoUri version I'll make
Ha ha ha ... just messing wtih you because I've said something similar to myself multiple times now. Anyway, nice pictures, and really nice job with the weathering!
Yesterday I bought a Manequin. This is how it's looking atm
I still have to put gloves, shoulders, collar and feet armors on it.
Now I'm just waiting for the FP CC helmet that I'll receive in few days and It will be completed!
Great! Your costume is turning out fantastic! You did a really good job at modifying that ab armour too! I can't even see a hint of where you added material to to it! I can't wait to see you put that FPCC on it when it comes in!
It's a FP CC. I have to say I R&Buffed over the CC, The CC had almost no shine and looked more grey than silver so I was forced to R&B. In comparision, any of my other R&Buffed pieces looked more like metal :facepalm
I must say it looks much better now
Guess I can finish the helmet for this saturday, I need to find a source for the visor in my town and I have to find also a substitute for a Stalk, wich is gonna be quite dificult
