Making a suit.

[Tasku]

Ok, sorry for the slow updates. It started to snow not long after my last post. And the garage I'm working out of is horribly uninsulated. But I do have some more progress pics of the chest piece.

I resined and glassed in sections to avoid warping as suggested, and I believe it turned out great. The lines are where I'm going to cut it in half, though I'm going to wait for that until I get it painted. But before the gloss coat.

If thats a bad idea, just point it out, thanks.

Looking HOT!

That's one really clean pep work! Your Jorge is going to look really good when you're finished.

Ok, sorry for the long wait for an update. The cold kind of discouraged me. But with a con just around the corner, I'd better get my ass in gear. Also, I did make the chest piece too small, as in not wide enough for the 14 or so inches wide for the bottom of the piece.

I'll finish it up in between my other work, and if anyone wants it, just ask. Unless of course I haven't been here long enough to sell off my work.

Here is the left boot.

Wow, really nice work dude. Cant wait to see more!

Thanks.

Ok, got the right fore arm done. Also, if you've noticed, I'm setting aside the Jorge suit for the time being, and opting for an HD Mk. VI MC suit.

Very clean PEP work. This will look great when done.

 

[Zachrack]

Awsome work man! The peping is smooth and I wish you luck on your MK-VI armor. I'll be watching this. Keep up the good work!

 

[wiyumishere]

Ok, I blame minecraft. This month will be Homefront. Thats why I haven't updated in a bit.

BUT, I intend to get this project done by April 20th. Thats just over a month and a half.

Here is the right thigh piece. Four angles and the next batch of parts.

Hand plates, left thigh, left forearm, and the right boot. The thigh is scaled near perfect for my leg, though a smidge tight. The hand plates are exactly one page each, and should be scaled just right for my hands. The forearm, thigh and boot are scaled the same as their counter parts.

I'm going to try and get a set of HD shins as well, the two I have done would just throw the whole thing off IMO. Also, it seems that I have some good luck with choosing not to use supports. I've had very little warping, aside from what was shown in the other pics.

The chest peice I was working on, I let a friend of mine work on.

Hey, nice to see you've got an update. Awsome thighs. Also I dont know if you have already thought of this or not, but on Thorsolli's suit he just made one simetrical shin then casted two more. Just an idea. Keep it up!

I'll have to make another thigh because the file I'm using isn't symmetrical, but otherwise thats a great idea.

Got the cod piece finished.

 

[rancor1]

Unicorns fix everything

Just like duct tape

 

[Tasku]

Hand plates are done. Will start on the left thigh in a few hours. Also, I forgot to print it with the edge numbers >.<

 

[Zachrack]

Working without edge numbers isn't to hard; you just got to use the computer to find where everything goes. Nice to see a lot of work done!

Got the left thigh finished just a few minutes ago. Heres a pic of it next to the right one.

 

[cory045]

i love the nice smooth pepping that was going on please by all means keep it up

 

[Tasku]

Got one shin down. An HD shin to be precise.

That string on the side, I super glued it to place while I was holding it to take out some warpage. It worked great! But the string started to smoke visibly when the glue was being applied.

 

[Zachrack]

Wow, nice pepping! It looks great! I can't wait to see your start on bondo and resining the stuff! Good luck.
