Alright everyone I have a decent sized update today. I finally got the torso painted and ready for strapping. The cod piece s mostly fiberglassed and I've got the right shoulder pepped and ready for resin.
Well I got the expanding foam in to give the hayabusa parts a little more support. Now I just have to clean it up do the sanding and figure out how to get it back together lol.
Hi everyone. I finished the fiberglassing of the torso along with installing the hayabuysa parts as well. I started prepping the torso for sanding and painting. I cut the torso in half and filled the hayabusa add ons with expanding foam. Here are pics of before I cut the torso. I will have those...

Alright everyone time for a long awaited update. Here is what I have done of the torso so far. I've started putting the hayabusa parts onto it and almost have the inside completely fiberglassed. I also have the left shouder almost ready for its hayabusa add on.

I'm going to put a gold visor in that was meant for my MK VI before I put it on hold.
Yeah when I looked at the clear coat I bought it was a matte finish. I had put on a coat after I had posted the pics.
I used chrome spraypaint. After I use the clearcoat it will be dulled a bit though.
HI guys and girls. I started on my Hayabusa finally. So far I finished the helmet. I know it's shiny in the pics I could only get gloss paint in the colors I wanted. I bought one of Ithica's hayabusa casts and cleaned it up, cut out the vents, and painted it. Thanks Ithica for the helmet I'm...
Hmm. Maybe the new people are afraid of or have yet to figure out the search function. The new people are still asking about the armor progress signatures. It's so sad to see a useful thread go to waste. So if someone would please post on this thread to keep it near the top or a moderator sticky...
