Hey all, my name is Cory, and a few years ago, I experimented with Pepakura and built a Reach EOD helm, glassed, and bondo'd it. Had a baby and since abandoned the project.

Now, I have moved on to 3D printing a H3 Mk6 set. I plan on seeing this project through, regardless of my frustration. Lol. I currently have the waist printed, assembled, and primed. I've read through many of the stickies in the tutorial section. But, I still feel like my biggest hurdles are going to be the undersuit and strapping. I will greatly appreciate any help or tips anyone can spare as I continue through this project.

Thank you!

The under suit may seem daunting but it's really not too bad once you dig into it. electricknite put together an awesome thread about her Reach Noble 6 undersuit that I used as the basis for starting my own.

Order of operations is definitely important and having the armour pieces on hand to figure out where strapping went was fantastic. I did a five hour test wear using a cheapo mock up suit with estimates of where straps would be needed and then adjusted on the real deal. Pro-tip though, leave room for adjusting even on the real deal because you never know.
