1st Build DFT ODST by a Scottish boio

[PerniciousDuke]

I love the color scheme!

I love the clear progression in skill even more. Every piece you can see you are getting better and better!! I hope you wear the heck out of this suit and your next one is even more epic!

Thank you so much Duke! that means so much coming from you, your armour is amazing!

I know the helmet is already built, but I would highly recommend using Loctite professional superglue (or contact cement though I cant perosnally vouch for it). I used to build with only hot glue, but after years of holding my seams together for minutes on end while it dries, only for it to be wider and super visible, I found Loctite from AngelLegend on YT. I use that stuff now and my build quality went up dramatically. Otherwise, looks promising and very clean!

The chest! Painted and weathered today too. I wanted to add more colour and shapes to it and im a sucker for simplistic shapes

And finally the last part i weathered today so far, the ab and butt plate.... hella busy but the con is in two days

also working on "pouches" and painting and mounting the knives as im posting this, just waiting on the glue and paints to dry XD

Bit late to the party but I absolutely love the weathering on these. Gives me the image that the armor got dragged through or perhaps over something.

I'll keep that in mind for the next time, thanks for the advice mate

Yeeeeeee, thats the effect i was going for. Wanted the armour to be hella beat up and worn

Test fit with the finished suit! Was a fun build and I appreciate those that kept up and shared tips with me along the way. I'll post photos from the con soon

Cheers Guys
Wendi <3
