I started working on my own today, with some twists to Daz's concept. I had all materials gathered and the wood precut and everything was ready for assemply. [ATTACH]36124[/ATTACH]First I assembled the base and the upper step with white glue. After the glue dried, everything was screwed together. [ATTACH]36125[/ATTACH]I then attached the sides which have precut holes for ceiling lights. [ATTACH]36126[/ATTACH]After that I placed the upper step in the corner opposite to the rounded side of the base. Again - glue first, screws following.With everything in place, this is the basic shape. [ATTACH]36127[/ATTACH]I covered the screwholes with whiteglue and crepe tape and installed the ceiling lights. And testfitted the mannequin.[ATTACH]36128[/ATTACH]What is now left on my To Do List for the next days is:- Screw the front cover panel into place- Install the metal rod that will hold the mannequin in place (which needs to be reposed badly, but that will be another story...)- Chip the wooden edges with a jigsaw- Create an uneven and textured surface and work out transitions between the pieces with dental plaster- Fixate lamps and attach sanded acrylic glass on top of them to diffuse the light.- Cover electronics of lights and secure cables.- Paint the whole thing using tinting paint, washes, airbrush and drybrushing.Hope this will look nice when I am done. And maybe, when the hackjob on the mannequin is done the whole thing will do the armor justice. Cheers guys, hope you like the progress so far. Happy to hear some feedback, as always.Tim</blockquote>
