This is turning out very well, nice foam work. The chest pops out too much in my opinion, it looks like you are kinda hunched over.

Hey,
Sorry for the pics being unveiwable my photobucket bandwidth gets reset soon so you will be able to see them again
Bad news
I had bought smoothcast 320 over 1 an a half years ago and it was down to the last bit and due to the air part A turned to sludge, but still cured and i used it for hardening the updated helmet that im still working on. I found out that the sludge that was part A of smooth cast 320 when mixed it cured hard but will not let and paint on top of it to cure no matter how hot or how long i did leave it. So when i sanded down some edges and painted over it the paint just didnt cure and stayed sticky. Now i thought a layer of resin will create a hard shell for the paint to stick to but it turnes out resin doesnt cure over the exposed smoothcast 320 ;,(.
So the point im saying the helmet is sticky and unworkable, i need to finish the rest of the helmet with clay and mold it. So until i get some supplies (1month or 2) i will have to yet again stop work on the build,
Sorry for the bad news but here is some secret info...
Im working on a theory for the helmet and if it works i hope it will make it in the elite section just got to make sure no one steals it while im waiting for my supplies. It has been half done for a month now and with everyday that passes im getting more nervous but until i get those supplies i cant test my theory.
So i will be back when my stuff arrives or when someone steals my idea

So guys just a pic to add to my build, not much has been done as im still in need of some silicone products.
I decided to paint the bulk of the suit and paint the rest of the armour when i have finished the helmet, so i leave you with just some picks with the first coat of green
Stay tuned to see it painted up and looking good

Just remember i hot glued stretchy fabric on the sides so it gives me more range of movement, it took alot of trial and error, here is a link to my YouTube video showing the foam and a bit closer of the undersuit,

6:12-6:35 you see where i put the fabric
