Ok, I finished them, there's a couple pics below. I ran into a few problems with super small folds in the ridges around the fins, but other than that it was fairly straightforward. I'll be resining next week if the weather warms up.

One question, any ideas on how to attach them together? Plus, I'm going to have to attach the bottom one to the bicep, which I shall be making from Robogenisis' model.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh pretty! Maybe you can use velcro or some kind of buttons that you can pop rivet to the suit? These look awesome! Great work!

The shoulders look great. For attaching the plates together, maybe put like a hook on the underside of the top two plates, and then attaching them to the sleeve using some sort of short string or maybe a small carabiner. This would allow them to flex independently. I've been trying to figure out how to do it myself because I was planning to make these shoulders. I'm interested to see how yours turn out.
 
Nice looking shoulders. You could string them together by gluing a cloth or web strap down the inside of the plates. You could even attach the halves of a snap buckle to the inside of the bicep and the end of the strap

I was thinking of doing something similiar to this with elastic strapping. Strap the top of the bottom fin to the bottom of the middle one, then then top of the middle one to the bottom of the top one. Have the bottom fin strapped to the top of the bicep, then somehow attach the top fin the the underarmor.
