    Long time no see... any advice?

    Well for those that remember me, still going through the bad luck streaks. Although this time it's been a lot longer to recover. I require.. well ... comment-like assistance more then anything, encouragement heavily appreciated, but negative comments will also be appreciated to an extent...

    Last minute pinch.

    the shin is too big for salvage, and since it's all scaled to it - it would be needing trims on nearly every single piece to shrink it down right. its too much width and lenght, not just height. soo instead of finishin it, I think ill leave the frong part off, rotate it, and turn it into a...

    Last minute pinch.

    bit bummed now, get mostly through the shin to think "hey.. this looks kinda big" Sure enough the sucker is huge. Apparently my trusty helper who measured me, isn't so trusty. Makes me wonder what else is off scale. This.. is a huge upset. Measure said 20'' I scaled to 20'' I built. I...

    Last minute pinch.

    thanks for the support! I totally just realized I spent the last 10 hours on 1 foam thigh (WTF right?) so I am way stressed for time. This suit isn't going to look anywhere like imagined from day 1, but my goal now isn't to get it all 'perfect' its to get something done. I keep starting...

    Last minute pinch.

    So.. yeah. Life kicked me. Working on a foam version of 'reach armor' (custom parts I use on my game character) Problem is... Time. Things came things ate it all, and now I am in a last-days-until-D-DAY crunch. Will I get anything done? Dunno. Just wanted some supporters for moral...

    Interesting Copyright Violation

    Actually reading the story I found it a little funny. The official "sale" of the helmets was banned in the US for infringement. However, using online services and selling overseas apparently circumvents this. The last sentence reads something of a joke of "oh if there were only a way to...

    Learning from My Mistakes. Chapter 1...

    So I decided, being unusually upbeat as I woke today, to write this out. The goal, to help someone out there prepare better then I did, or perhaps just to recap my mishaps and maybe learn from my own mistakes, in addition to having people comment with their own problem/solutions for the...

    Gears armor - problems and stress

    I figured a bit out. I was stressed because it wasn't looking "perfect" Even if the shoulders were fit to me and the chest properly, it still needs probably 100 hours of bondo/sanding applications to make it look just right. So I sat down and said "No guides". I started EVA foaming with the...
