I got a bit more done on the armor. It needs to be blackened and decals and LED put inbut getting there.

Yea!

Good job man.

Keep it up. The yellow stands out a bit. I would add some dirt blemishes.

Either way it rocks!

Superb craftsmanship!

Good job, just tone down the yellow.

Yeah the yellow is a bit bold. I will get a finer brush and touch up with the chrome, then I will dirty it up once I get the sticker on it. then black wash and dull coat.

Leave it out in the rain for a few days. Is that Sintra? How did you do the dents? Looks nice.

it is sintra like material different brand. I made the dents by boiling water in a big pot, laying the armor in water for a few seconds, then while wearing gloves I took a big Marble, and a CO2 cart. and pressed into the armor with all my might. then I reheated it a little and smoothed out rough spots with my fingers, While wearing gloves I used leather gloves. and then quickly put it into cold water. Worked slick.

I have not gotten to making my back armor yet though because I need an extra set of hands.

Is that Jodo_Kast armor or his templates? 'Cause that armor looks familiar! Nice job on the painting and denting man!

 

[soilman]

I used the templates.
They worked out real well
