This might be a solution to your eye slot problem. http://xrobots.co.uk/IM6/index_lights.html Every time I visit this thread I am blown away, keep up the good work!

I spy some Mandalorian helmets... The SAW looks great.

I'm in Edmonton, Alberta.

I use the foam brushes because, although they eat away at the foam, I like how they absorb the resin and you can squish the brush down onto the fiberglass strip and the resin will ooze out (if you know what I mean). I've never used the hair brushes though. I think it mainly comes down to...

I hope it's okay if I use A-119, even though another member has requested S-119. Nathanæl: Spartan A119 File --------- A119: Nathanæl-A119 (TheCaptainBacon) | Spartan-III || Alpha Company, later Office of Naval Intelligence, Section Three, Beta-6 Division | Rank: Brigadier/Special Operative...

Couldn't you just make two visors, one with the skull carved in and one without the skull? You could make them switchable, and then you'd have better accuracy and you could choose to have the skull or not. This build's looking great nonetheless!

I use this same technique for my molds. I find that the the acrylic paint is a must, just to ensure that there is an even mix with the glycerin and the silicone. That said, this build is looking KILLER! I haven't commented in forever, but I have been watching this thread like a hawk! Keep up...

Looks great! Are you going to paint it like Romeo, or with your own custom scheme? Also, I've used that same silver mirror film for a visor, but it tends to peel off if the plastic warps in any way (like if there are any slight bubbles or waves in the plastic). Other than that it works great.

At the first picture of the shin and the boot together I literally stopped and stared for about a minute. They look really good.

Amazing. That's all I can say.

O.o your helmet is beautiful...

When I was 13, I went in my reach suit to the release of Halo 4. I went with my 20-year-old cousin (also in armour), and expected to have to have him buy it for me and then pay him back later. However, the cashier thought I was old enough to buy an M game because I was wearing a helmet. So I got...

It looks good. I imagine that it was hard to cut into/modify finished pieces, I can never bring myself to do that to my armor.

That exo-suit is amazing. Are you going to paint it, or leave it the colour of the EVA?
