okay guys...i just thought about the armor size...and...i came up with that the armor is actually smaller than the real deal. so...i took actual pics from the costume, and blew them up to life size. i then just cut out the templets. i have made them all symetrical...so, they all go together. anyway, i have taken some new pics of the old compaired to the new set. i am very pleased with the new set...so, if any of you guys want some pics of the new set, email me.

okay guys, i just wanted to know 1 more thing from you guys. do any of you guys want some accurate knees as well? i can add the knees into the price. they will be painted a special color i have come up with. pretty accurate on my count. anyway, the knees without the knee darts will be $35, and that includes an adjustable peice that goes behind the leg. and, i can also make the cod peices. they would be made out of the plastic, sintra. i have to put a lot of bondo on it, that is why it might be a little high. i can also add this into the set. i can make the cod peices for $40. overall, this is some great armor. i'll take some pics of that as well, and post them.:) :) :) :) just let me know what you guys would like for me to do.

I just thought of three questions.

1. What are the dimensions? like a meduim build like on the MoM exhibit?

2. Concerned about my chest lights not lining up with the display slits?

3. What is the time frame of this project?

Cant wait to see these though Its an awesome idea, and I'm really interested.

okay, well, here the answers to all your questions...:)
1.) well, i don't have the measurements...but, i am 6', 155lbs, and it fits great.

2.)for the chest lights, i can leave the holes filled in...in other words, i won't cut out the key holes.....therefore, you can do all the measurements, and cut them out to fit your lights in. i bought some chest lights the other day, and, i am doing the same thing. you can cut them out with a grinder, or some tin snips.

3.)well, the time frame of this project depends on when i receive the money. what i will do, is when i start accepting payments, i will take the the money, buy all the supplise, and start it on that day. i will cut, and paint all the armor probably that day, through the next day or 2. so, depending on when i get the payment, it will take about 2-3 days to get it complete. i will then ship out all your armor priority mail. i'll get the pics posted soon. sorry for all the delays.

Sounds great

I wonder if it would be to small for me though I'm 185 pounds 6'1"? Leaving the slits out sounds like a great plan for the chest lights a dremel should take care of that. I would probubly ask you not to paint mine though, not saying your not an excellent painter, but I worry about color differences between the rest of my armor.
