So I actually finished this build back in August 2015, but forgo to upload the photos here. lol. So here goes!
Bondo work on back of torso
replaced the inside portion of the thighs with high density EVA foam to allow for more flexibility.
Started with a black base.

Sounds awesome! I'll try to get to as many of those as I can. It'll depend on times, and what my non 405th friends are up to. Is it okay to bring guests?
Geting ready to start painting. Haven't decided which color scheme I want to use.

Thanks! Everything is pretty much at various points of partial completion.
Finished Bondo on one gauntlet. The other is cut, but not yet assembled.
Wired the LEDs for the helmet. Pretty primitive construction, but they work, and that's what matters.
Cut the visor to fit. Just need to...

Fiberglassed the Helmet, and finished peping and began applying resin to the torso.
Going to begin bondo work this weekend. Working of building the thighs and groin currently as well as working on my BR.

Rear half of rail. Scope had to be printed in halves. Safety...
Helmet finished and fits perfectly. Not going to have to cut my ears off to fit into this one!
Got all the bracing installed. Resin arrived yesterday. I plan to start fiberglassing Friday.
