I've only just purchased Armorsmith! But I'm running into problems trying to install the program. I have Norton 360 for protection and it freaks out every time I try to install. I've tried disabling auto protection but it keeps preventing at least one install file from completing. Does anyone...

No worries! Was looking through because I was thinking adding hard parts to my armor would be nice . Really appreciate your work!

Hey man! Love the work put in here! I noticed something when I was going through the viewer. The handplates are exactly the same for right and left hands instead of being mirrored images.

I’m in L.A.! I’m not very knowledgeable about Halo cosplay specifically as I’ve only completed one but have general cosplay knowledge and foam smithing ability . Looking forward to meeting everyone at upcoming events!

It definitely looks like a chemical reaction. I read you let your paint layers dry a long time. That’s good. Be sure to use an air blower or soft bristle brush to clear the surfaces of dust/debris. Try dusting on two light layers, making sure to get 100% coverage. Then try full layers. If it...

This looks great! I am definitely leaning towards 3D printing my next armor. I love foam smithing but always wanted to try my hand at finishing printed armor.

Damn. I kinda want in on this xD

My diet has been much cleaner and workouts feel good. Unfortunately the holidays and family time demanded food be devoured xD. But I’m back on track now and am able to control how much I’m eating. I test fit my armor the other day and it felt much better to wear than before. Good sign! Keep up...

Looking good! Definitely always sharpen those knives and often. A dremel with a sanding drum will help smooth the rougher edges and then a pass with a stone bit will really help along with finishing the edges.

Really well done my dude!
