Looks pretty good, how you making the visor



good question im goin to see if any motocycle stores in my town sells gold and silver visors and if so i will buy them and do the double visor techniqe with maybe gold with silver over top or just 2 gold and as for a mini update i have found some laundry pipe which i used and i injected hotglue so it bonds to both as well as makes it completly solid



SDC11365.JPG




and i bought some foam sheets so now i can add some more detail for example under the visor heres and picture i still need to paint it though

needs a little fixing though but it looks great at a distance i used my 11" master chief action figure for reference :p

hey there guys again its GiR3892 here this is what i got up to this weekend , now just before i post pictures im not going to be putting alot of detail in the rest of the armor well because i have to wait 5-6 days before i can do anything so what my new plan is is mainly just fiberglass the suit and then go sraight into paint this is only becase of time issues and before i can make more helmets and start molding i better complete something so i have done a few things this weekend tell me what you think



this is my right boot theres still got tobe black paint for battle damage to be added yet

although it may look a little "crummy" here i did sand it all smooth afterwards and didnt take a photo of it

SDC11408.JPG


the hand plates

SDC11411.JPG


the right forearm

SDC11412.JPG


the boot again

SDC11414.JPG




now this armor isnt great and ill admit that but when it is completed i will make a better suit later when i have space but for now this will be a "muck about" suit to have some fun in i also started a new project "recon" and the recon helmet has been fiberglassed also while i was away and soon i will be making more helmet and start moulding



thanks everyone
