I love this forum, man I need to get on here more, starting today I'm more involved.
Anyway! As a 'new recruit' i'm really new to all this business and have a lot of questions.
Can anyone provide me with a specific link to a place where I can buy a good visor for my H5 Chief Foam Build? And after I do get the visor, how do I go about adding the hex pattern to it without clouding my vision, is there a transparent sticker or something I can attach?
Secondly, for my boots, I'm obviously not going to be able to put my entire foot WITH shoes into the preexisting boot, unless of course I want to make neanderathal sized boots... should I just where black socks and attach the two halves of the boot to each other on the underside? Or should I buy an extremely thin pair of shoes like jazz shoes to glue the soles to?
I'm using very thin foam for my armor build, if you scroll down a bit you'll see my thread and I'll also add the link to my signature. My concern is that it will rip or be flimsy when I finish the armor. So when I go to seal / reinforce / waterproof my armor, what should I use that can best protect my armor from the elements and cracks, rips, scrapes etc? Will plasti sol do the job just fine even for how thin my armor is? I'm super concerned, I can't emphasize that enough, I really don't need my armor breaking on me xD
When I go to apply my plasti sol / resin whatever, how many layers am I going to put on? (I understand this is probably in a thread somewhere, just link me and I'll read up on it)
Cortana, does she attach to the back of chief's helmet, how does that work and where does she go?
Where is the CHEAPEST 1/2 inch EVA mats available? I want to keep a solid budget for my project, not hurt my wallet, because as far as I've seen EVA is super expensive.
Lastly, just as a reference for me, for those of you who have finished an entire build, how long did it take you (combined hours not overall timespan)?
