Hello!!, I´m building a JP from scratch but at this point, I don´t notice that the central part was out of scale...........I was happy with how it was, but now I don´t know...........looking all the pics I use for reference, in many, it look closer...........but in other it look fatallllllllllllllll!!!!!
I´m considering cut the bad part and replace it.......but this could destroy all the good work.............what do you think? continue with this, or try to resolve ?..................

I think it looks fine. If cutting it out and replacing it isn't too much trouble for you and you are going for total screen accuracy then go ahead otherwis I say leave it. I am building one also but mine is kind of a custom made pack.. not really screen accurate but screen similar is what I would call it. Just until I have the dough to get a pack from rex.
 
I agree, finish this one, it looks good!!!

and make another one, or buy another one when you have enough time and money.
 
yes, maybe with the errors here I´ll learn to go for the right one................thanks, I will keep posting the progress in this one...............
 
The tube size looks fine to me. its just setting a little to far out, the rocket will be way out there. OF course look at the prepro 3 suit, That jet pack is huge.
 
yes...maybe because I look all the stuff in this place(and all are not from the same JP) Im get confuse............but for this moment will continue with this one.......maybe, if I
get millonaire(ja) I will buy one of this beautyssssssssss around there.......
thank so much for you positive comments
 
well, i think it looks sweet...considering i have not starting anything..coz is too daunting...i have only cut out the body...


i wonder what u use to till those pipes(those are PVC pipes right??) at the edges??
 
BLEAHHH, you mean how I glued the pipes? I super glued the pipes, and put some putty in the inside edge´s to give some durability................
 
thats ALOT of putty!!

i am still looking for big doses of putty-like substances to fill the gaps...any recommendations?
 
YOU KNOW WHAT I USE TO FILL BIG GAPS? POLIESTIRENE......THE HARD ONE..............I JUST CUT A PIECE SMALLER THAN THE HOLE, AND GLUED IT WITH SUPER GLUE....AND I SCULP ON IT.......SO I USE LESS PUTTY............IF YOU SEE IN MY JP, ALL THE PIECES ARE MADE IN POLIESTERENE AS BASE, AND THEN I SCULP A FINE SKIN OF PUTTI ON IT...................
 
another pic of my progress.....................I have add the two tanks and the inyectors..........STILL LOTÓ WORK TO DO!!!!!!!!!!!!
