Wayii! Kandosii ner vod! They're so much fun, they make sketching even more fun! I have to go get more for myself now... ran most of mine out with all these sketch variants that I'm working on for my future armor sets.

Well as soon as i got to Micheals it was closed forgot abot the labour day weekend stuff

but i did get my trashcan and more bondo

 

[Alpha 02]

another problem im afraid. My printer can only printed normal sized peices of paper and the medium templates are too wide. I have no idea what to do now. If i print them it just makes them smaller so they can be printed. Im wondering if i should just print the large and let them be shrunk? any ideas?

 

[adonian]

What do you mean? I printed my large templates on standard 8.5x11" so medium should fit perfectly?

 

[Alpha 02]

im slightly confused right now

 

[adonian]

is it printing larger than the paper size?
I know the collar used 2 pages, but the chest plates were 1 each.

 

[Alpha 02]

oh wait! i found the problem can you tell im tired i had to print it at a different direction

 

[adonian]

I knew you'd get it.
Can't wait to see progress, you know me zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[Alpha 02]

haha, ya i know

 

[Alpha 02]

Im thinking im going to have to switch to large looking at these templates

adonian, just to compare how tall are you?

 

[adonian]

5.10 but I'm rather KEG bellied, who needs a six pack?
Sorry I didn't reply as quick as usual, I disappeared to youtube to see a quick tut on making a kamen rider kiva bucket.

 

[Alpha 02]

haha me! im a bit short of one but oh well the gym keeps a guy in shape except when you miss a few weeks...... *grumble grumble*

But oh well

 

[adonian]

Try 14 years... I got married 14 years ago and havent been to the gym since, man I tried going back two weeks ago, and did a few miles on the tread, but sheesh.

 

[Alpha 02]

haha it takes time! AND LOTS OF DEVOTION! i really gotta get back there

oh and realized in my drowzyness that i only thought i figured it out, adobe acrobat is confusing the **** out of me. I have no idea whats even wrong, maybe i should just try again tomorrow. I wanted to print them tonight so i could trace them onto the trashcan tomorrow but oh well

 

[Alpha 02]

I printed both the belly and chest armor and held them up to myself to see if it was the right size, there is about three inches of space between them! and they look way to small, so ya TOTALLY CONFUSED RIGHT NOW!

 

[Alpha 02]

the acrobat page says its 37.11 x 28.28 in

and my printer can only print 11 x 8

 

[adonian]

Wierd? Give it til morning, I think the lack of sleep is messing with both of us vod, I'm starting to hear things, and it's only like 1am, anyway, I'll check for update tomorrow (or today) in the AM. G-Night.
