Lookin' slick, Rook! This is really coming along nicely! Have you done anything else with the chest or other pieces?

Them Oreos. They be everywhere....

Oh my... it's simply beautiful..... D8

Siiiiick! I'm going to have to go back farther into the thread and see how you do your foam. Your pieces are breathtaking!!

Good job on the pepping! That is probably the hardest part because it gets so monotonous.... -.-"

Hmm... have you thought about printing it out on some photo paper (the glossy stuff) or plastic or something? Love that you made one that everyone could do for themselves!! Thinking about making one but subbing the 405th emblem in in place of the ONI one....

Amazing build!! More and more it seems that foam is taking over here. I need to get started as soon as I get back!

looks great! How's it weight-wise? By that , I mean is it not too much to carry around for extended periods of time? My M4 weighs less than that and it really gets annoying sometimes....

I was wondering when something like this would happen, lol. I'm also glad to see that I wasn't the only person that thought about putting an iPod on my armor as a datapad :D

Great build! You are almost making it look easy D:

WOW! That looks frickin official!! I love how the silver/black turned out. Looks futuristic and slick!! For the clear plastic one, have you considered using an enamel or some other paint-type material to fill in the grooves? Kind of like a clear card with black lettering on it or...

I actually used the same pep for the M6D that you used when I first made it. I never got past the pepping stage and eventually had to toss it, along with all my slaved away work on my AR and my Mk. VI armor, when I enlisted. How are you planning on keeping the pieces together? I had put mine...

I second against expanding foam. I used it to fill my AR and it ended up leaking out of every imaginable point where the hot glue wasn't 100% there and ballooned out the sides. It took a LOT of pressing the sides in and holding with clamps to get it remotely close to how it was supposed to...

Brilliant. Absolutely genius. While I've been trying to visualize a way to safely secure (E)SAPI plates into a suit (just to be able to say that my suit will have the removable capability to stop 7.62mm rounds..... because I can), I find out that we have a resident engineer, lol! I've flipped...

Truly breathtaking work, drack. I know foam is flexible and spongy, but just how well does it hold up to general wear and tear? Also, does the paint chafe? Just wondering how different it is from fiberglassing. Again, excellent work. I love the battle damage, too! I know that the custom...
