I'm not sure what you mean. The method i used was to just measure like HaloGodess's guide says. For the helm, i messed the height of my head, fir the chest, i measured armpit to armpit. Pepakura designer will let you asjust that measurement and the rest of the piece scales with that measurement. So far, the chest fits like a dream. I'm going to finish going up the shoulders and down around the back to make sure that fits. That way i don't do the whole thing just to find its to small.
Sorry for the double post, but I'm just too excited. I got sooo much done on my chest tonight. I think it fits perfectly, but i would like to know what you all think. I was able to get both shoulders, the collar, and both shoulder blades pepped. I think i might be able to get this completely done by Sunday. Also, my helmet is completely cured, but it's a little tacky on top. I'm going to dust it with corn starch and do another layer of my new resin when it arrives.
Let me know what you guys think!
Another update:
So, i didn't get my torso done today like i wanted, but I'm pretty darn close. I got basically the entire back done and the strap on the left side done. Now all i need to do is the strap on the right side and maybe a few more pieces. I'm very happy with how is turned out so far.
Let me know what you guys think. I would love some feedback.
One last test fitting. Once i build and attach the piece that connects the chest to the back, i probably won't be able to put it on until i cut it in half. I'm extremely happy with how it fits.
Hopefully someone posts soon so i don't have to triple post lol.

Really sorry about the tripple post, but I've been buried to page 3I'd love some feedback about the sizing of my torso.
Let me know what you guys think. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated.
It's looking really good man, sizing looks correct and seems like its going to fit well. Good pep work too, i havent started my chest piece yet, i'm dreading it since i know its going to be very labor intensive... I'll be subscribing to your build for sure! keep it up and update us whenever you can. Nobody likes getting buried to page 3 lol
Thank you, i really appreciate it. I felt the same way before i started, but this piece has actually been awesome to assemble. There aren't nearly as many tiny parts or small crevices to try and reach as the helmet had. All of the parts are much berger and way easier to work with. Plus, seeing a part this big come together is just awesome. I can't wait to make more progress. I appreciate the sub
you're awesome!UPDATE:
This build is on hold until further notice. I'm not happy with the chest file and the new resin i used on my helmet, on top of my old resin, got all screwy. Also, I've found a much more interesting build that I'm 10x more excited about. I'll be posting a new thread in a few days when I'm done pepping the helmet.
