i agree. i built a low-def suit and the proportions are different than the hi-def models. the best way to probably find the correct measurements are just to measure your body part by part usind Abrant3's measuring method. plus like has been said, everyone's body is different. best bet is just to...

you can do that or if you want a tight seal you can cut slits in the wrist area. on either side of wrist where your hand comes out, where those two pieces protrude out, you can cut slits so that they open up and allow your hand through. i did it for mine and it worked out okay, and it wasn't...

no problem man. i know what you mean about the cold being a real problem though. i'm just doing the pep work on my HD suit and when it gets warmer i'll resin and glass all in one shot. how does the forearm fit? did you have to do any sanding or minor adjustments to it?

very nice work. i especially like the cardboard detail. nice job on the forearm as well, i tried and it was too hard. i look forward to seeing more. when you do resin and glass your pieces, make sure you really get the fiberglass cloth or mat worked into your piece, otherwise you could get...

i agree with condor on the weather. the cold makes the fiberglass take forever to cure, and it's just not fun to work with. If you could do the glassing and put it in well ventilated area and put the pieces near something like a portable heater, that might work. other than that you may jus have...

wow man this is looking good. can't wait to see the finished product.

that sounds like a good plan. last time i found myself trying to reach at wierd angles and glue in hard places. thanks man, i'll give it a try

i figured it would take me a while. it took me a little under a week to do the low def chest. any suggestions on what parts of it to build first to make things easier?

oh cool. when i make my HD chest i was thinking about using magnets. i saw another guy in one of the forums did that and it looked like a good idea. everyone else has told me about buckles and straps though. Was assembling the HD cjest a real pain?. i'm impressed with how smooth the armor looks...

wow this is looking amazing. can't wait to see the finished product. one question though, how did you attach the two chest pieces after you cut the chest in half?

that's amazing work man. how did you attach the chest pieces together once you cut the chest in half?

lol no it's purple. you like the color?

ya that's what i figured. but i can scale the chest down to fit. i added a few centimeters just to be safe

thanks. i'm lookin forward to makin it better with the hi-def pieces

thanks man
