Hi 405th

I started my Mark VI back in highschool. The time constraint was a serious issue as I tended to focus on my prop building rather than the schoolwork in front of me :p

I will be posting updated pictures of progress here now.

Thanks! :)

Close up of the neck seal. I changed things up a but by using a reach style "collar" because I do so like how it looks.
