Man, I wish I was that clean when I pepped my suit! Inspiring work you're doing, keep it up.

Oh man, my internet wasn't working for over three weeks!!
I hope I didn't miss too much.

I resined some parts and I think they get well. But my torso, both shoulders and a helmet are broken. That's very bad, but I started already with the new parts.

Thank you guys! Also for the wallpaper
Well, to resin and glass this armor will be the next challenge, because I've never seen resin in Germany. But I read that wood-glue is an option.

Being greek i had a simular problem actually.
(mind you, im not going to ask for any money mate ;D)
But i found some resin in a hardware store with powertools, paints etc
I asked for fiberglass resin and they were confused, not knowing what it was. Suddenly one of the people working there popped up saying "Did you mean plexiglass?" and apparently that helped.
As for "bondo" (putty), they gave me automotive body filler, which is practically what you want.
Your pep works looks absolutely stunning and im happy to see something other than the master chief/ODST/the occasional EOD build

Here's the new torso and the left bicep part. The new torso looks much better than the first one.
