I just read your thread as well! Supreme epic work! I love seeing helmets go from pep to beautiful finish. A class work brother! If you don't mind me asking... how do you get the small thin groove detail that go around the helmet? They aren't there when you do your pep work (obviously) heh... which tool do you use to get that?

Update one of the gauntlets and the other shoulder is all bondoed so he will be sanding those today and tomorrow. Possibly he might have an update photo on those two. Also the other kidney is done but I kind of used all the primer for my project so once we buy more primer the other kidney should be ready and painted.

I would say that spartan-005 is at least 75% done with the armor. He just has three things to pep, one thigh to glass and two things to sand and do touch up bondoing. Right now he is painting the gauntlet and hopefully he will have pictures up sooner or later. But having to deal with 12 hour shifts every 2 days and every other weekends he is doing a damn good job on it. I'm jealous that my armor doesn't look this good but mine was the test run. Hopefully in the near future i will have version 2.0 of mine done, but for right now I am concentrating on my Steampunk costume and my writing. But I know a lot of you look at his progress but these pictures don't do justice on how good it looks. I'm bummed I won't be in armor with him this year but probably next year I will be. Also he is making something special and when he gets done I will try and convince him to post it on here or start a new thread about it. Another thing all the logos you see on the armor are all hand painted on. He used no stencils at all.

well the wife has stated is all true. but the gauntlet took a turn for the worse. while painting the damn thing the paint wrinkled so i will sand all the paint off tomorrow and start new again monday. and also i still have my spare odst chest up for grabs which is in the classifieds. plus i will be casting the equipment plates here monday when i buy some casting resin.and yes i am making something kool. but you will all have to wait. what i will say its another trinket.......hope you all will like it.....and yes my job. working in a prison i work 12hr shifts. which is 5 and 2 which is one week 5 days and the next is 2 days. and thats every week till i have been there a year.
