Ok so between work and life I have had limited time to work on my build, but I put in some solid time last night. I cut the cod piece, back belt, and neck pieces last night. I also cut the first part of my helmet out. I used 2mm matt board from Michael's craft store and Alan's templates. Then using the mist setting on a spray bottle I lightly coated the cut out with water. I then bent it to shape and let it sit.
This whole process took about 2 hours. Going slow and making precise cuts, and I still did not do it as perfectly as I hoped to.

Over all I think that I did a good job on this part. I need to cut out the rest of the armor, form it, and then plasti dip all of the parts. Side note, to get a really good glossy look to plasti dip, do not spray as recommended on the can. Get CLOSE and make it wet. Be careful of runs. Do several layers of light coat (this will look textured) and then do your finishing layer. Looks pretty good when you are done
lol:
I have some other work done as well but I did not get a chance to photograph them. More to come...
