The perspective is a bit off so this looks HUGE!
I need to put the ears back grey and find an even darker shade for the middle cheeks but other than that, I think it's ready for scratches!

Awesome work so far Pal. I can't wait to see this project completed and since I'll never see it in person I shall be reliant upon your pic's. Keep up the hard work Brother!

Ordered my 2 jumpsuits but they are on backorder until the 6th!!! I really hope they get here in time to have them altered.
I also had to repaint the cod armor because when I clear coated it it turned a frosty white.

What the hell is going on with the clear lately? I bought another can and THE SAME THING happened!
Oh well, another repaint...

Thank you. I have a friend tinting up a visor for me tonight and I hope tio get it installed tomorrow. I just paid the "Lady" for my custom vest, my jumpsuits are on a short backorder, and my ammo belt is being worked on by a buddy over at Mercs. My gray parade gloves also came today.

I just wish I could figure out this clearcoating problem, though. Think it's possibly humidity in the air?

That's the first thing that popped into my head. Happens alot if you spray during the evening. Has to do with the amount of reducer they put in the mixture.

I guess I'll try again this weekend when I can do it in the middle of the day. Repainting sucks when you have to re-do all the weathering, too.

My belt was finished today! Thanks lonewolf1183!
Can't wait to get it and break it in a little.

I have the backplate roughed out now.
The upper portion of the side shoulder arc still needs to be trimmed flush to the top panel and the seams filled but since they never show this piece in the comic,
this is what I think the plate might look like in relation to the other armor shapes.
