WOW - i love them!!!!
Hey,! I gotta set just like that!
You did a great job finishing them up. How's the fit?
The chest armor I got from you in trade, finished up SWEET! I can't wait to show this costume at CIII.
WOW ! I am by no means a Zam fan, nor do I post here ever, but I had to stop by and say WOW !
*expletive deleted* Wow.... !!!!
I sure hope your wife is entering the costume contest! From what I've been seeing - she'd be the winner hands down!
Wow! I too am not a Zammer but I know good work when I see it. Excellent job!!!
Thanks guys!! I appreciate it
Judz, they fit really well. She's a little shorter than the average woman so the gauntlets are a tad long on her arms but they're o.k.! I actually cut the left gauntlet clear down to the long box on top and the way I made the cuff part slip over, it stops when it hits a certain point.
Oh yes, she's in the costume contest!! This has been our huge motivation for her
Is she in the "Costume Pagent" on Friday from 3-5 pm. (Right when the TDH photo is being taken?)Or is she in Sunday's "Costume Cabaret?"
If it's Friday, I'm gonna be torn... group photo or cheer on a fellow Zammer!!!

but there isn't much response. I know several people won't be able to make the photo because of this. Kathy and I would sure like to be there but I'm gonna have to say the costume contest is more important

Actually, think I'd rather cheer on a fellow Zammer!
heck, get Goat in that armor ! I could see it now, winning first prize, then him peeling back his shroud to reveal...THATS A MAN, BABY !!!
any chance someone can post some gauntlet dimensions?
cheers!
*** AWESOME! Tell us how did you make it, STEP BY STEP!!
I am not a Zam fan, but dang those are awesome gauntlets! Great work!
looking sweet
Outstanding! It is paying off as we speak!
Awesome, Cal! When is it going to be done? When will you have some good photos of this version? Still have the Zam spot open on the MG project...
