Well add another to the watchlist. Carter's been one of my two dream builds for a long while now, though not 17yrs long, so always happy to watch someone else actually making him.

DDPM is definitely one option people use. Other options people have gone with include ACU's and multicam. My build used the Swedish M90K for an off the shelf version Spidermonkey's marine build used a city camo that was dyed TurboCharizard's hornet pilot similarly used a white BDU dyed As...

Got my wearable updates and some minor weathering done by this past weekend to wear to a small event here in my state. I have a few notes from it all. First, new fans were definitely nice. Super quiet but enough airflow. Padding in chest and back was good and comfortable which was a concern as...

I'll repeat it here again. If you are planning to bring a prop for display or want to be proposed for photo area post a photo here. Having added it to the prop list does NOT guarantee it will be put on display. As an example while I'll have 2 props I'm carrying, the only one I'm offering up for...

On a printed part I put a strap through the buckle like N8TEBB then attach the strap to my print w/ e6000.

Welcome! Those are certainly some good ones. Others guidelines generally would include Avoid necroposting - check the post before yours and if it's old (good rule of thumb is if it's > 3mo and not your thread it's likely a necropost. Doesn't mean you can't reply, just be aware and ask yourself...

Not a ton of photos this week, but here's the updates. Completed painting and sealing on the new parts. Also ran electronics for lights, fans, and audio in my helmet, chest plate, and belt. I picked up 2 small 5v Noctua fans that sit inside the side vents currently pulling air into the helmet. I...

I've not had any issues with them on the bottom so far.

This is coming along really nicely. Looking forward to when we get to see a suit up post.

March is over, so what got completed? What's in the works? What's been pushed off? Mk VII 3D Printed Parts - printed, sanded, and primed Boots - foam construction, seams filled, sealed Partially through paint Materials purchased for electronics Garage Delayed in general due to logistics...

Only a few more weeks until C2E2, so more progress must be made. My one regret from my initial build on this is I did not write down the final paints and clear coat I used. I did have the list of paints I considered, but the charcoal didn't end up being any of those. Thankfully I was able to...

Reminder and a couple of notes on the sign up sheet. First if you haven't signed up for any shifts please do so here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1--rCmwa6Zw_wyugHcGWlG1tnNnVDPCW1uQGFIfGOarY/edit?usp=sharing To everyone, add what costumes you'll be bringing and indicate if you're...

Planning an update overall of where I am next week, but here's the camera process. For starters, as the helmet I'm making this time was modeled by Titlewave, I started with his Fascinator model as well. The camera I'm using is the DJI Action 2 which is about 40mm x 40mm x 23mm by itself. Since...

I'll get up and workout that early, but I'm with Spidermonkey60 in not doing legs.

As I figure it out I'll do my best to share. As I want to hide camouflage it as best as possible for photos I can't do that exactly as I'd hoped with the same scale as my helmet for any attachments. Since I used Titlewave's Mk VII helmet for my new one, I'm using his attachments and looking to...
