I'm actually contemplating that right now. If I just use 1/4 in. Kydex (Thermoforming Plastic), I think it'd be strong enough for the abuse I want it to withstand.
Hey all on the 405th, and Dead Space fans.
I found some parts of the Security Suit, and wanted to share them on here.
I'll put up the .pdo files and will try to unfold them if/when I have time aside from my current project
Enjoy!
Helmet -...
Hey, thanks for the comment! :D
I was wondering why I haven't seen any Dead Space 2 helms around, and I like making up my own stuff so I came up with this. Totally glad that it wasn't frowned upon here! lol
Note: Make sure to check the sizing right, I made mine like 3 cm too small. Not a...
I know! I saw a video showing what happens! OW.
I decided to make it without fiberglass because:
1. It's a mess
2. I'm a noob
3. Look! A bunny!! yum.
Thanks man, I like that someone else thought my design looked neat. Hahahaha :D
I'd like to make it riot-proof so I can go paint-balling in it and not even feel the impact, or if there is an outbreak of chaos I won't be as vulnerable to malicious activities. So to a high degree, functional.
I think steel is a good medium because if made right it will bend or flex instead...
This is true, bondo tends to shatter and wouldn't prove to be useful against heavy impacts, even layered between steel and kydex. Aqua-Resin sounded like a good choice but I'm not familiar with it, as well as fiberglass resin. (Sticky mess!)
But all the harder substances will be made after I...
Crap. I forgot to scale it after I finished the back piece. After pepping some of it, its not going to be as big as I hoped for. Oh well... at least it won't look like I have a giant head.. :/
I think I fixed the problem but I can't be sure because it opens just fine for me.
Also, am I supposed to include the .mtl file? WTH is that for anyway?? lol
Nope. Entirely handmade by me. Although inspiration came from combining the Security suit and the Advanced suit.
As for the link, I'll figure out how to set up a 4shared or something...
*Edit: Done. Links are under the pictures.
Also, the DLC armors are just re-textured versions of the four...
