This is actually the third chest ive made. I was having some scaling issues as well, but with this chest http://www.4shared.com/account/file/KxlrpK6_/Reach_Torso_L3X_Carpathiavh99.html
It was much easier, i just measured the height of my body plus an inch or two just in case and the width and depth scale automatically. Im not sure what my measurements are but i think i used a height of 356mm on the chest.

Great job mate, that looks awesome so far. Are you using foam or pepakura?

That's wicked. What kind of blade are you using? I'm looking at going the foam route for the core of my ODST.

Just a regular exacto knife. With TONS of extra blades. Eva foam dulls your blades like no other.

That's kind of what I was thinking. Have you tried sanding at all? I think a belt sander or something would be really handy to get the best angles for the edges being joined.

Anyways I'm stoked to see how this goes. Keep it up meh bruddah

Yea I had one but it was destroyed. it works really well but the debris goes everywhere and its hard to clean up.

What are you making the helmet out of?

The helmet will be made with pep and bondo as usual but the rest will be foam.

Looking fantastic! Do you find working with foam to be all that hard?

I went through lots of foam learning how to do it but once you figure it out its not too difficult. It took me lots of practice. I think I made 2 fail chest pieces before I said ooooh that's how you do it lol.
