from the looks of it I'd say the hand pieces are to big mate I'd make them smaller

Btw almost finished forearm pieces

try them at 2cm maybe in build height
Scaling the parts to fit you is hit and miss really
and it also depends on personal preference if you want them slightly bigger or not with room for padding and what undersiot your going to use. There is a few topics and stickies with guides to scaling but even they dont work for everybody your kinda on your own with that one. Frustrating I know but dont give up build the scaling models until you get the size your happy with. Dont make my mistake I built the chest thinking I'd got it all figured out only to discover it was slightly to small.I wasted alot of time and money lesson learned.

Spartans are starting to get younger and younger heh heh.

Good work on your build keep building.

If I were you I would buy a respirator instead of using a dust mask. It can keep you alive.
