HI guys! I've just started my first piece of armor. It's the left bicep piece and it's looking really good so far! I know a lot of people start with the helmet but I thought this would be a betters starting piece seeing as I have no experience. I'll be adding my first few pictures here in the next two days. I just wanted to get this up while I have the time, and what better time than on a bus ride that has Wi-Fi!

So expect the pictures this weekend.

tips and advice or corrections are always welcome!
 
Awesome man! I actually don't like starting with the helmet either! And you're correct, smaller sections do provide a lot of practice while getting the bigger sections of the armor done. Let's see some pics!
 
Hey Guys!!! it's been awhile! but I've been busy. Not just with school and home and family but also building. Not as much building as I would like but oh well.
Well here are the pictures that I have

like the suit

i like how its coming along would defiantly love to see it finished if this is your first build then i would check out how to make some of the details out of eva foam, there are some videos on youtube or on this form. it helps a ton when you are finishing up those final details
 
so a little update

I've started to resin some of my pieces

I don't have any pictures because i'm a lazy piece with a bad camera

I did have a problem with my first piece that i put resin on. I think that I didn't mix in the hardener as well as I should so it's still gooey. I'll have to fix it later though.

The other piece I was able to do turned out really well though and i'm looking forward to getting all of the pieces hardened then moving on!
