Welcome sir!! Glad to hear that you have a little bit of experience, and that you've read through and watched some of the "orientation" type stuff. Just for conversation's sake, have you got any pics of your old armor? Again, happy to have you here, and good luck.

thanks and to everyone as well. yes i do have pics i rused to finish it in time for halloween last year lol so the top half of the suit was high detailed and the lower half was normal detailed lol. and i plan on making a new one since the one i made is breaking and i want to cast this one this time. so i never casted or molded anything before so im going to test out Alumilite brand casting materials that i got from Hobby Lobby just to get started then i plan on getting the good stuff lol SMOOTH-ON!
