Hey 405th! Great community going on here; I absolutely love it.
wiyumishere and I have been working on our own separate armor sets for a little while now, and I just started making some progress on mine! I've already trashed a codpiece, two shoulders, and a forearm on account of them being too big or too small. BUT, I am starting this thread with a few pictures of my measly progress!
Right Forearm
Torso
There's a ton of warping on the torso, some of which I can fix with bondo (which I am no stranger to), but the rest of the warping will be pretty much unnoticeable in the later stages.
Back of the Torso
Won't be able to see this due to the backpack, but hell, here's the back of the torso.
I'm hoping to get the forearm resined and rondo'd tomorrow, so that should be pretty exciting I suppose
wiyumishere and I have been planning pretty much everything from pepping to visors to custom undersuits to weathering. If you have any advice for a noob, I'd be appreciative to hear it! I do want to say that we are not tackling this without knowing anything, though; we've been reading for a while and know a lot of the basics
CREDITS for pep files (will add as I add pictures):
Forearms - rundown, unfold by McPrimus
Torso - AceHigh, not sure about unfold, my apologies.
