1st 3D printed build (other two were EVA) suit is now in full 2.0 stage

[Kahn 319]

some pictures of the weathered suit at summercon, I'm still waiting on the mid section but other than that I feel the suit is mostly done, I will be experimenting with height boosts and switching some new, different pieces in, not because any of mine are defections just want some variation, working on some new helmets and shoulders, all with the same color scheme.

New pics from a recent photo shoot, shows off the weathering more, i have an undersuit in the works, and the cat ears are removable.

Considering ripping out the visor and removing the chrome and the hex pattern and dying it gold and re chroming it to match carters look,.... thoughts?

That would look good
In my opinion (MY OPINION DOESN'T DETRACT HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT IT) the hex pattern works to the detriment of the suit, so I think redoing it just gold would look better

I dig the hex visor ngl
but if your goal is to be more accurate then go for it!

Your armor looks so good! Also, the two-tone DMR is absolutely gorgeous.

If you don't mine me asking, where'd you get the model for the knees? I can't find them anywhere.

Patch 2.3
I feel like i should rename this thread since the suit i built has been completely replaced as i've gotten better, i just redid the last few pieces from my first 3d printed build, i have decided to embrace noble 1 and therefore will be finishing my costume by implementing more, hopefully all aspects of Carter's suit onto mine. i plan to have it done in time for HCS, but you know how plans go. ill post pictures after HCS cause i want to show it off there before i post it on any social media sites.

i remember this, it was my first con with the new suit, you had a sick jetpack, i think, i remember mainly cause your costume looked good but was very unorthodox. man i hated those knees, i had them attached by magnets only one inside my pants and one attached to the knee, didn't work. only thing i still have from that suit are the wrists, belt, and helmet, but all have those have been heavily modified, repainted and resanded.

Cant wait for HCS, I haven't decided if I'm going yet but I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's suits.

you should come, even if you don't compete it will be fun to have more people in costume there, we can do videos and stuff.

sorry for poor picture quality, but this is the end result of this suit, i do not plan on updating it anymore other than maintaining it. i am learning new ways and techniques to make suits better in the future, see yall out there, will probably not post more updates in this thread.
