well, here we go. Pacx's Progress.

[Alpha 02]

sweet idea

 

[PacxIblix]

I can't DO THIS any more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The armour split when i tried to draw in the battle damage and boom. I'm left with a crack down my girth and cod plates.

 

[Zuka]

Pacx it'll work it in the long run also just spot putty it nobody will notice

 

[Zuka]

Oh yeah in my Story, your squad is with me and Je'karta when he Fell you also witnessed my slaughtering of the jedi, also it can't be that gruesome because the jedi used a lightsaber and not a sword

sure ya can, post me a pic of the damage and I'll tell ya what to do.

 

[PacxIblix]

I'll go back to Imperial soft stuff. That's my speciality.

 

[Zuka]

... I am not amused I want some enthusiasm

 

[PacxIblix]

Enthusiasms gone I'm afraid.

 

[Alpha 02]

pacx, like adonian said put some pics up. Then we can give offer some advice

 

[PacxIblix]

There's no point vode, its irreparable. I'll see if i can get something to stick the pieces together but Bondo isn't around in the UK so I dunno a substitute.

 

[Alpha 02]

you dont get any sort of bondo? I'd look around for something that people use as a car dent filler then if i were you. They should have something

another thing you could do (depending on the damage) Heat up the crack and hold the melt the pieces back together... Im no pro at this that just something ive done with my armor

 

[Zuka]

I have also melted plastic together for small repairs on stuff So grab a propane torch Hold plastic together
Melt
Fuse
Secure
Cool
Polish
Paint
Done

 

[PacxIblix]

Propane torches are a little OTT, dontcha think?

Anyway, I'm gonna put the costume on hold for now. Maybe buy another chest, cod and neck plate.

I think that'd actually work.

 

[Alpha 02]

It would, worked for anything ive done. Pacx why not just shoot up a few pics? It doesnt take long and then we can see where you're at

 

[PacxIblix]

What, a propane torch? Really? I don't have one and don't have the credits to acquire one.

I also think it would be easier ( don't get me wrong, im not going the quick and easy route) financially and practically to just get some more armour, ans whilst I'm at it I can get some arm and leg pieces too. Don't worry guys, I'm not out of it yet.

Any car body filler is bondo over here in the UK, P34 I think is the closest As the reaction agent is pink.

Simple point is if it can repair a car dent, be sanded and you can buy it from Halfords, it's what the US call Bondo.

I'd like to see your plates, with the damage and we'll see what we can do to sort you out Pacx. So send photos of your current progress.

 

[Alpha 02]

There Pacx, Saz has just saved your armor

 

[PacxIblix]

The only thing I'm really concerned about is the aesthetics of the armour: How's it gonna look if there's a huge tear down the centre bits? It's like sticking two pieces of ripped paper together with glue.

 

[Alpha 02]

Makes it looked battle damaged bro! You are fighting jedi
