Wednesday I was able to do a quick photoshoot and walk around try on for my armor! Very happy with many things and the overall feel of the armor! Few things I still need to do/correct/am wanting: -Undershirt in photos was different from the final shirt I'll be wearing normally, Combat shirt...

Theres benefits to foam and 3D printing! I'm considering doing a full foam suit next time just for the mobility of it! Might even join marine gang

Hoping to do a test suit-up today in it see what I like and don't like, Still need a weathering pass and to sew/source a vest, but I'll update with pics and findings!

Texture has been really fun! I've used super 77 adhesive spray for a lot of the armored texture. Spraying it as a splatter instead of mist leaves a ton of splotches and dots and replicates that armored look perfectly! Combine that with a bed liner spray and follow it all up with spraypaint of...

Thank you! Very happy with how it's all come out!

Photo dump time: recently work has been a little chaotic, but I've been able to get some work in time to time on my Rakshasa build. I decided that I wanted to move to a Radio pack and used Mickey's pack from halo3 ODST as the model for mine! Very happy with how the backpack came out, it...

Putting parts on a mannequin really brings a suit build to life. more than half of the suit isn't even on him yet and manny the mannequin is looking great. I'm working on some of the strapping this week, all armor pieces except for codpiece and grenadier shoulder are complete. I'm wanting to...

I'M NOT DEAD YET!! It's been a while and I've been trying to do a little work at a time to try to get some progress made on Rakshasa. Today I was able to get some remarkable progress! From base layer applied on Friday, and walking in today, I was able to apply 2nd coat of paint, and then final...

Hype Hype Hype Hype This is just a quick little hype video I made, Still working on getting parts molded, I'll be buying more silicone tomorrow and getting the molds finished so I can actually get some pulls! Looking forward to it! after that I'll print some more components and that will be the...

Little progress has been made this month, I was able to get the chest piece painted and all assembled! The straps also came in, I'm using These Straps from Amazon to act as rigging straps as well as just necessary straps for the undersuit details. I got 2" and 1.5" straps. Currently waiting for...

Molds are being made for some general parts. I've enlisted the help of my very talented and super helpful friend to get the knees, Base Biceps, and Chest pieces all molded! As soon as we have the molds made, I'll try to post a video or plenty of photos showing the molds and process!

Printed out the chest piece and got it semi-assembled a month back, was finally able to dedicate a little time recently to working on it! This is a preliminary pass, showing what I have currently to work with. Bicep and hand plates were printed on SLA, Chest pieces were all printed FDM Knee...

I've been a little AWOL on this lately, hoping to get back into it soon, but life and work have had me in a bit of a mess lately. Truck got graffitied, new jobs came in at work, and I've had other projects in the works as well. I only just finished my remake of a file I did before infinite came...

I did the thing And today I have began printing, Chest piece will take 2 days to print and I will update once I've assembled it and will show testing of fit and strapping once I print the back plate too

Renders and initial scaling, I'm not 100% satisfied with the thighs, and the more I look at it, the more I'm wanting to make the bicep armor that mounts to the fabric undersuit and connects to the shoulder armors. Initially I thought I'd pass on making them, but now I think I should.
