Multi-Gen Mojlnir armor overhaul (Pep and freehand)

[rickrtickr]

Man, I feel like I am just inchworming updates right now.

In an effort to clear my active projects queue so I can dive into the monolith that will be my torso project.

I have applied my first layer of Bondo to my new forearms. From the feel of things, this shouldn't be too much of a bear to tackle and get finished. But who knows what the actual work effort will be?

My next build day is Thursday, so expect updates then!

On to the new forearms now!

Welp, I feel like i could have waited and gotten some more reference for the Cafe. Oh well looking good man can't wait to see more!

well i mean you are free to switch them if you want. my color scheme is going to stay the same.

Well this will be another quick update.

I have most of the initial sanding done on my forearms. I have a preliminary primer coat applied and am ready to tackle secondary sanding now.

I also go a little gift from my brother in law and painted it up so I could display it somewhere.

I have also started the prep for my next major part rework. Look for brief updates here, and a full dedicated thread for it in the near future!

Finally it is update time!

I was at last able to break free of adult responsibilities for a day and do some armor work!

The new forearms are functionally complete. I just need to add in some padding to make sure the stay where I want them.

Have some pictures:

With weathering:

Side-by-side with the old ones:

And of course my fitting solution to actually put the darned things on:

Misc test fitting:

That is one project down. So on to the next ones!

so I must be entirely mental at this point.

I have always liked the FUD helmet model, but my old Pep model is showing its age at this point.

I had to track down the pep file (since it is not the one on the forums here) and take a look at it.

I have already got my hands full trying to do the Pep Build of the Infinite torso, so I wanted to see if I could re-convert the file back into a water-tight STL. And suffice to say... I have created quite the project for myself...

I have only filled out the inside of the "jaw" portion, and it is quite the task so far. Unfortunately, unless I can get in contact with the original Model maker, I probably won't be able to "release" this model here.

More to come at some point, now that the holiday cramming is done.

Is that Forward unto Dawn Mk IV?

Is that Forward unto Dawn Mk IV?

Yes it is. I made it my main helmet a long time ago but it is getting old and had been patched up several times at this point.
