I feel you on the weather man. I'm in the panhandle so I know how uncooperative this weather has been lately. You're work looks great, keep it up.

there are many tutorials or links to some in the Noob stickys. Also, Cerialkiller has some great youtube vids that I recommend. There are other members with great tutorials as well, but their names escape me at the moment (sorry all).

Saved for pics of Finished product

nice work. very impressive.

As always, your work is amazing. I wait with baited breath to see the finished product of everything you do. I know the frustration of uncooperative weather and I'm in the Florida panhandle. We just had a cold front sweep through, and with outside work my only current option, I have been...

So, after two hellish weeks I'm back on track. Spring break was not cooperative at all. It rained just about everyday, or threatened to. I was able to rondo my helmet, but that was it. Unfortunately, my mixture was too thick to slush, so I finished it off by brushing the mix around...

So after a recovering sore finger, midterms and a research paper, I am taking advantage of Spring Break and working on my armor. I finally finished the torso, and even though the final assembly was a pain I'm happy with the end product. Here is the back piece assembled. Here I am wearing...

I have finally finished cutting out the rest of the pieces for the torso (my poor index finger is numb.) A total of 31 pages. Later this week I will fold. I'm thinking of making a duck tape mannequin before I finish gluing the torso, so I have somewhere to hang it once finished. Will have to...

Awesome!!! Never would have guessed from the sun-spotted photo from earlier.

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I have started on the torso and finished pepping the front. Here it is showing the scale. Look big enough? (the piece, not the gut :D) Just finished printing out the rest of the torso. Time to cut, fold and glue.

My prayers go out to you and your family.

Welcome and get ready for a fun experience. I recently started myself and just finished pepping my helmet. Word of advise, when you get to the helmet, I suggest building from the top down. I learned this the hard way :D. Good luck.

Thanks. Though I haven't seen the helmet on the forums I did find some Google pics of one done by Hyperbalistik (he unfolded the pep). It looked awesone. Agreed that the 'Pool' is the man. In hindsight it would have been easier to start from the top. That last thin piece on top was a pain...

And done with the Helmet pep. I'm going to have to cut it in two to be able to wear and use magnets or something to keep the pieces together. I'm a little worried that the helmet might be a bit small. Will have to see after I harden it and cut in half. Here's hoping. I'm a little worries

Here's the brace I mentioned. Placed here it helps relieve the warping in the back. I finished the front. I'm really enjoying this project. I should have the helmet pepped by the end of the day, then I'm going to start the torso. I'm hoping I'll have my resin by Friday.
