Yeah, I'm deffinately not impressed by my work.
True That Homefry! I think my next part to work on it my Cod piece (Thanks Sigma!) and get that part outta the way... maybe do the Butt Plate at the same time...tlither said:It could have been a lot worse Kelly. You did a fine job for your first one. I've seen worse (and so have you) so don't sweat it. Now get started on the rest of the suit!
Yessir! All pimped out in pink (everything will be painted to my in-game character).smilie120 said:Woah! That's awesome! Kudos! You making the rest of the suite?
Visor has a nice ugly uneven layer of epoxy all over it (seriously..dunno how I screwed up that badly lol) and the styrene layer is cracking and webbing, ugh.Shade said:I think the helmet has a good paint, job looks alot better than my first helmet(and 2nd to 5th...)Btw, what's wrong with the visor( I R Noob.)

Btw, what is "goosecockbillygoat"? I saw this string in your photohosting links
I would never say my helmet looks like crap. Why? Because it's a BLUEREALM helmet. It's on the otherside of the spectrum from crapDOOPYDANNY said:that paint job looks fantastic kell.you know it drives me nuts when you say you did a horrible job on something or it looks like crap because everthing you made so far that I've seen looks freakin amazing!
Hey now.... loltlither said:I think it goes quite well with your codpiece.
My helmet has been sitting....waiting.....contemplating whether or not I was gonna paint it for the last 2 months... that's long enough lol. It will be nice to stop loosing sleep over it though *sigh of relief*Loess said:I think the paint looks good. A trick that I've found is to set the helm on your workbench and go play halo. Maybe even let the project sit for a couple weeks. When you come back, it'll look tons better. Right now, your eye is drawn to lots of imperfections that only you can see, even some that aren't really there.
Take a rest, play some games, work on other projects. Come back to this with fresh eyes and you'll be amazed how awesome it is.
Das jus how I roll chika ^^ I cant wait to troop with you and all the other girls (that I hope will be there) at next years D*Con!Skullcandy Girl said:THAT looks DOPE BRI you did a really great job Yay! More girls getting armored up!!

WooHoo! It looks awesome Kelly!BlacRoseImmortal said:Here's the final result of 3 days of painting, repainting, wackin mosquitos off my body, cursing, painting some more, etcetcetc.
I went alittle overboard with the black (go figure), and it took some getting used to trying out the Hammered Silver damage but the overall result isnt too bad for a first timer (I hope lol). I was hopeing to also have a completed dual layerd visor finished up but.... yeah... I totally screwed that one up, I knew I would (1 visor down the drain so far, not too bad IMO). But for photosake I took 2 pics with the visor in....I know it looks like crap, leamme alone. I'll most likely redo the whole paint job and try and figure out how to get my visors to not look like crap (ugh, back to eBay...).
