Not much progress over the last 2 days due to delivery issues but the visor is done, needs to be reinstalled. Clearcoated the helmet, hands, and boots.
We also added new shelving and a drying rack!

Visor is very simple, OHP printable acetate for the hex pattern, then blue acetate with a mirror foil backing View attachment 364986View attachment 364987View attachment 364988View attachment 364989View attachment 364990

Do you have a link for the visor? I love the pattern

I do not as I make them myself

Just more sanding, filling and then wetsanding for the armor. Started the first fill passes on the undersuit masters.

All parts bar 1 printed for the sniper as well

More heavy filling and gearing up for making the undersuit molds

Also printed some spacers for the sniper as can't easily get 1/2 inch pvc pipe here... metric system and all

Sniper main sections assembled for sanding

Not as much progress as I would have liked but sanded for like 6 hours...


Just the 3 big pieces and the 2 side rings for the chest left.


The rest is ready for the final sand.

Random update on my bday
Decided to do the inner thighs in rubber as well. Had to modify the files a bit for fit, as I have thicc thighs.
Printing the second one atm.
Did some sanding on the previous undersuit pieces as I wasn't fully happy with the smoothness pre wet sand.

Dreading doing the big 3 pieces as they are hard to handle.

Ran into issues with the seal rings and the 3 big pieces.... as they are very thin, I need to strengthen them so they dont keep splitting.. even with staples, glue and welding there's just not enough material to make sure everything stays in place when handling. So I'll be coating the 3 big pieces and the rings in XTC 3D. Will be a few days before that gets here. So plan is to knock down the seams and filler on the pieces so I hopefully only need to do one coat of resin.

Not too happy that sanding took alot longer than I wanted. But atleast 80 percent of the armor and undersuit masters are ready for high grit sanding.
