I agree with all above. GRAB A MASK... Hell... I would even say find a Organic Respirator Refill and stick that in your mouth ^o^



on a random note...
lol. Well... i spilled blood on my pep today. woop!
 
Yeah, any more updates? I need to get my girlfriend into this to get a matching outfit. You put a lot of detail into planning aswell. I noticed your frags. I'm not good at building things entirely from scratch and mainly use found objects. Like for my frag I used a tennis ball, chain, screws and pvc piping etc.

Anyway look forward to more pics. Might start getting some references!

I saw your frags and they were not bad at all. A bit rough on the edges but with more planning I know they would be SPOT on.
 
HEY EVERYONE!!!! It sure did suck 405th being down. When I saw it was up again I was in class so I have been seeing peoples progress from school. As for mine...I have been really busy with work and school. I havent had a chance to take pictures but I will hopefully next week of the bondo-ing stage/sanding. Im kinda nervous about it because I really dont wanna lose detail. I have ordered the retro lancer (with my gamestop points) but true to my character, she is suppose to have the first MK Lancer (chainsaw) cheapest I found though is still like 167-200+ (I want one sooooo bad :-( ....)

What I have done is ordered the gloves Pony Sent me a link for..i got them and I Love them!

@Iron Monger
I'd like to see the Frags that you have created!
 
No update in 2 months. Does anyone know where I can get the female Pep set? My sis has been asking me to make her a suit, but I didn't think it existed. D:
 
Looking good so far. The pants do look good but yeah I can understand the price tag and the fact that they are for guys. I have the same issue finding something perfect for a build and its for guys but hey there's always a way to make them work
 
ALIVE ahhhhh.

Okay so I made a trip to Home Depot and purchased two Pvc Couplings and began painting them:

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix the minor gaps???

Also, I know what you're thinking, why is there a hole at the bottom. This is Why:

When the lights are attached the color runs through the clear plastic

The light up shoelaces are a brilliant idea =D

As for filling the gaps in the foam seams, Foam users use an adhesive caulk and spread it in the gaps, then just run your finger along to smooth it out =] It'll harden up and will also help hold it together a bit more.
