Wow. I guess its been a wile for progress. well good news. When I last posted my progress i just cut out the armor in metal. Well I've since bent them up and painted them. Still needs work in the weathering department. But here they are. Let me know what ya think.

Well I have some more pics for ya. This is the cod piece. Its from the trash can set I started before I went to metal. I put fiberglass over it. Worked out pretty good.
I also had a bit of fun after I got some BB's
This is the back plate.

Hey what gauge was the metal you used? I think the stuff I got (for free) is to thick...at leas with out real tools. I guess it true, beggars can't be choosers
I'm not a 100% on this but i think it was 16 gauge I think still have all the scrap. the label was on it with the size. Ill check it out and get back to ya. It was defanetly the right price. OF course now i gata go out and get some more so i can do my shin and thighs.
Ya I thought it would not only dent it but chip off the paint. It was a blast. Cant do that with plastic!
