How's it going 405th? Well over the past year my wife and I have been working on a Spartan costume for both myself and her and we plan to wear our armor for the first time together at this year's San Diego Comic Con God willing. Now this is the first time either one of us has ever done anything like this before so I know it's not gonna be perfect, but we are both gonna do our best to make it look good and we would highly appreciate any kinda advice/recommendations you guys can offer based on how our armor looks to date. I've been looking up tutorials on how to make the armor on youtube and also peeking around the forums here for a good few years (and finally decided to register recently) to get a good idea on how to make the armor using Pepakura. And so far this is what we've got:
This last one here I just took yesterday. I finished putting together the Pep helmet for my wife and the Rouge helmet has already been resined, fiberglassed, bondoed, primed, and spot puttied.
Progress has been kinda slow due to the fact that I'm in the Army and work is really demanding. That and the fact that I got a wife, 2 kids, and 2 dogs keeping me busy all the time , lol. But like I said, I'm doing my best to have this stuff finished before the summer. So I'll keep putting up updates and in the meantime feel free to let me know what ya'll think and to offer any advice/suggestions ya'll may have.
