And I believe that's printer paper right?

Try using Cardstock (110lbs), less flimsy and better for fiberglassing
 
It's still easier to use cardstock. cuz cutting small cardboard pieces for the torso or the helmet will not be easy

Is that tape holding it together? good attempt, but try a glue gun, outa look better
i used masking tape for my armor and it works good. but thats mainly because its paper tape. dont use scotch tape it sucks.

Boot and Shin together

The Shin is made out of only paper, and its a little hard to get my foot out of the shin.

thanks,
Ill be glassing it when i can come up with a little money just to let you guys know. Im going on to make the rest of the right side then the left and then the torso. :D
 
i am doing mine sort of like u but i am working on the helmet chest and the left first. i have half way completed my left thigh and bicep but mine will take a bit longer than yours because i am using the hd pep files.
 
Why, why, WHY?!
No no no... Don't start ANY Projects without glue! Buy glue first, then put it together!
*TAPE DOES NOT GIVE THE BEST RESULT, IT WILL ONLY RUIN THE PIECE WHEN YOU RESIN IT*
 
i use Elmers Glue and it works fine for me, i only use Hot Glue for big projects like my M41 and M247. your stuff seems to hold its shape well, the MArk VI i made out of printer paper and tape flattened out after i was finished.

Looks good though.

Cheers,
