aight, i had an epiffany thursday morning. i would not be able to finish my costume for the halloween party that took place friday night. so i took thursday off from school, printed all the pepakura and folded it. i woke up at 3 am friday and began resining everything. by 5 PM friday, all the pieces were like so:
[attachment=1193:helmet_lowres.JPG]
Helmet:Fully painted, with black visor from walmart, uses sponges for padding, needs LEDs and fans.
Chest:Fiberglassed, needs sanding, 2nd coat of resin, and painting
Left arm: fully resined outside, needs fiberglass/sanding/resin/paint
Right arm: resined, fiberglassed, needs sanding/resin/paint
Crotch:front piece fully painted, buttplate is fiberglassed
Legs: in various stages, fiberglassed at the most.
Feet:resined.
I wore a open hoodie sweater, with my "Bitches Leave" t-shirt showing underneath. When I walked into the party with that and my helmet on, everyone went ape ****. even though my visor wasnt the right color and i didnt have the rest of my suit, people were still flocking around. i'm hoping to have the rest done by the 31st to go score some candy door2door.
