Looking great. I think you have enough buckles now.
lol, thanks to you & JTM's, I appreciate it my man. May need to talk to you about some othere stuff...lol
IKR! IF you were to put them in your pockets the police would get you for concealment of deadly weapons,lol. I think duel wielding pistols is beast. You will have to post a pic with them and the suit when you can.
This is true. I have special child safety locks on them..lol. Will do on the pistols, but there may be a change in weapons coming along. we'll see.
I think you have enough buckles to outfit a small army! haha Looking great as always Tony, keep up the excellent work. I love the camouflage on the thighs and forearms! :cool
Yes, yes I do...lol. Thanks Vincent, I was trying it out for the first time. Never painted camo before. all in all, it came out fairly decent.
How did you get that dark green finish? I quite like it.
I used three different colors for the basic paint job on this helmet (not counting the silver coat & orange stripe).
The color all the way to the left, looked grayish green to me in the store, so I got it. I then used the brownish middle one to mist over it randomly around the helmet. And finally, I used the black one for the accents and around the front area under the visor.
Hope that answers your question.
Small update:
Well, I took some time the other day to do a tad bit of reshaping to the ODST visor buck. Added about an inch all the way around it, so that it’s easier to mount.
Also, we are going to create a new buck that’s more universal for other people who have different helmet models, just in case they are in need of a visor.
Heres the status on the Megacon suit:
Still trying to finalize all the strapping, this has been somewhat of a choir as I have never done this before. I’ve been utilizing some neat tips that I picked up from Stealth’s video showing you how to add buckles and what not. Thanks Stealth. I also took his advice and ordered a bunch of clips and webbing online as I would have spent way to much locally.
