Nice idea for the stilts! I just wanna say one thing though. I would make the high heal thing on the back a little thicker. To be honest, in the picture it looks like the first time you step the wrong way it will snap off. And you probably have already thought of this, but you should build up the whole thing with some foam or something so it fits more snugly. Even around the shoe if you are going to glue or nail the shoe on. Just a couple ideas, good luck!

As for the paint color, i'd go over it with a clear gloss or something chromey. It just looks more grey to me than silver.

My bad. I didn't see any other pics with silver, so...

The stilts...
The back supports are very thin and only have one contact point. I suggest adding some supports so it doesnt just snap off while you are walking.

Update, WITH PICS!
1. I said I got some shoes, tada,

And all in all, heres what else I will be working on.
(Dont Hurt Me Spase!)
Remember these are rough drafts on a 4x4 sheet of plywood, I must add detail yet, these are the basics, well, except for Mister Chief, hes pretty basic!

Yeah, I have to reinforce the back a bit more. The straps were just a prototype, I will be adding shoes later.Foam is a good idea though!
Ya, probably should have read through the whole thread before posting lol. I was feeling a bit lazy... Anyway, good progress, good luck, and sorry
EDIT: Lol I find that when wearing ski boots, if you walk on your toes it looks like an elite! They are all hard plastic in case you don't know, they are just expensive and it gets hard to walk on the toes.

Guess Who! Its Mr Update!
Well, sorta, I will get off my butt and give you pics by Tuesday at least. I have thought of this cool idea for my helmet, to add more detail, and Ill share later. I have the chest smoothed, in which I will super sand and add detail. Stay tuned,
oh, and you know those big pictures of the logo and Mister Chief and stuff? Well, I cut those out, and started to paint, pics Tuesday.
