LongShot-X's Mark VI HD MJOLNIR Armor - WIP

A Noob's 1st attempt at Armor Making!

Hello everyone in the 405TH!

I thought that I'd start off by sharing with everyone my progress on at my 1st attempt at making a Mark VI High Def Mjolnir Armor.

Nothing says it better than pic's!

At ATTENTION!

ABOUT FACE!

At EASE!

Test fitted the Helm ---> YES it Fits!
Test fitted the Torso ---> Problem! Can't squeeze my shoulders thru the bottom and into the torso. Will have to research how and when to split the torso into 2 pieces. Otherwise the measurements say I'll fit while wearing an undersuit.

More progress reports to come.

Just a friendly reminder: You need to have an Infantrymen status (or better) before you can post to this thread.

The torso has allways been meant to be split. I could draw you up a diagram of where if you wanted, just send me a pm. Otherwise thats some nice peping!

Wow, this is very good pep work you have here.

For assembling pepakura without edge IDs, you have now been upgraded to BAMF status.

How did you do that? I mean, I suppose it's not impossible, but definitely very difficult, especially in the early stages.

I used the Peppakura designer to show me where each piece goes. That means that I have to do the pepping with the comptuer close at hand. The benefit that I discovered by doing it this way is that it is easier to see where I have to cut and fold. Especially with the really small intricate folds.

I'll be doing it this way for the rest of the pepping process.

There is a typo in the title of this thread.
Is there a moderator or an administrator that can correct it for me?
Typo: Mojlner
Should be: Mjolnir
Thanks
