hey everyone,
I started my first HALO armor a few days ago.
I printed all the parts and glued them together. that was kind of easy so far. then i read a lot to continue my project.
i think the next step is to use the fiberglas resin at the outside of the parts and the fiberglas resin + fiberglas at the inside... please correct me if i'm wrong
... then i heard much about bondo and sanding to make eveything smooth but there i've got some questions:
1. is it necessary to use bondo if i'm happy with the edged form
2. and if i want to make it smooth though, do i have to use the bondo everywhere or just at the places where i want to smooth the edges
And then I have a last logical question: some parts have to be cut open to put them on later... for example the forearm or the chestpiece. so i just wanted to know what method is the best to put the armor on - i perhaps thouht about straps or hook-and-pile fastener. But if there are other maybe beter ways please tell me
And if there are other helpful tricks I'll be glad to hear them
thanks for your answers...
