Beyora, the only problem with trying to do what Cal did, is that he has a studio dedicated to building this stuff, and he has specific materials he uses alot. I don't have either of those. And as well as I can throw some pottery on a wheel, sculpting a clay version of the gauntlets feels like a terrible waste of time as I know I won't get them right. And it'll take a long time too. Hmm.. maybe I can interest some of the techies at University of S. Indiana to play with their 3D machines and make me some plastic ones. I'll have to call in a favor to a friend. They already made some Boba Fett parts, so why not a pair of Zam gauntlets?
But for today, I'm going to get the chest plate done, but the other thing I'm doing is working on JD Fetts broach that he sent me. It didn't set up right for him, but I requested it anyways, just in case I could make it work out somehow. Well, JD Fett's part met up with JB Weld and life as we know it is much, much better and it lives happily ever after. I'm going to smooth on a thin layer on the top and sand it all down when it dries.
New motto: When it doubt, JB Weld the sucker.
