Everything about this armor build is insanely awesome. I had to pick up my jaw on the floor after flipping through 23 pages of pure skill. Also, and I'm sure everyone will agree on that: this thread may be in the "Noob Forum", but there is NOTHING noobish about that armor! As for my two cents...

It's not that I don't WANT to! It would make my life sooooo much easier, after all; problem is, can't find any for sale in a 200 km radius and the shipping fees from the US are astronomical (a can goes for about 9 CAD, with a 72$ shipping fee...) :S Thanks nonetheless, any feedback is always...

Hello everyone! :D After a year of inactivity I decided to return to the work bench and continue the ODST suit I started last summer, using the classic pep-and-resin combination. It looked like this (ft. lame paint job) : As we all know, the classic pep is often a messy, smelly, costly...

Thanks! I'll get on pepping the rest of the armor and do it piece by piece until my skill reach a level at which I'm comfy with doing the helmet anew, as I'm not really satisfied with its looks. You're not alone, and if you haven't, check out Vshore100's build, it's BRILLIANT! Thanks a...

Scratch the "brave" and go straight for "bloody insane" ahah! Definetely not my brightest idea, doing simpler things first would've been FAR wiser. (Would've spared me a second pepping after the disastrous first attempt ;-) ) Thanks for the comments!

Hello y'all 405th-ers! So I'm fairly new to the forum, as you can judge by my post count, but I have been stalking it for quite a while and I got really cranked up to try myself at armor-making. However, doubting my skills (and my will to do a FULL suit of armor), I decided to only try...

Hello all! As you may notice, this is not quite my very first post on 405th; I went all noobish and asked a question straight after registering. I apologize for this! Anyhow, here's more about me : Name: Max S. Profession: I work part-time in a grocery store Age: 19 Favorite Hobby...

Sir, yes, SIR!

No problem. Your work is what got me into trying out some pepping, and I'll be real happy if I achieve even a third of the quality of your work ;-) And thanks for the answer about the paper & scale!

Hey vshore, just a quick post to tell you that your work is really awe-inspiring and to ask you a question about your helmet : did you had to do any scaling with your pep file? (If not, printed in A4 or Letter? I'm guessing A4 but who knows) Keep up the good work, this is some high-caliber geek...
