Great job on the sanding dude. I am going to Home Depot right now to buy some sanding supplies, so I can get to smoothing my armor out.

I would love the gut plate, yes. Thank you!

I have not printed out the shins, boot armor, cod/butt, and kidney/lower back plate.

Plus I'm sure as time goes on I would love to eventually upgrade to some HD pieces eventually for all the armor.

And I'm still sanding these pieces. I have decided to to go ahead and leave a good chunk of the nicks and grooves from the bondo as detail and weathering on the armor. I figure, these guys have been in the canyon for like a year at this point, and Caboose would not know how to properly maintain his armor

I might even leave some random black patches from the "teleporter incident."

I really appreciate it, that's awesome of you. I, unfortunately, don't really know how to unfold the pieces. I mean, I can click the unfold bottom in pep, and it unfolds it, but I don't know how to break it up onto separate pages and such, kind of a noob when it comes to that

*EDIT*
Wait, okay, I found the join/disjoin faces option on the 2DPatternWindow tab. Giving it a shot now, should have an assembled gut plate shortly.

 

[crackhead09]

well here it is unfolded i dont know for scale so just try with it but they should be the same scale as sigmas models i think
unfolded gutplate dont cut the solid black lines and the support fold is a valley fold

Man! I finish my gutplate and find out that an HD one comes out!

 

[Cadet]

So, in case you were wondering, Physical Chemistry, Bio Chemistry of Marcomolecules, Analytical Toxicology, and Honor's Humanities and Honor's Thesis projects do not leave a whole lot of time for armor making, but I find time here and there.

That's looking really good! Very smooth and good weathering.

Now you have the stamp of "Awesome" from the voice of Caboose, and Microbe! You are very lucky my friend. Very lucky indeed.

 

[Radioactiv]

Good work man!
Can't wait to see it finished, do you plan on having it done by Halloween?

 

[rvb18]

All my reference pictures and screen caps shows that area as a matte-light defusing black. *shrug*

Everything has been [painted as of tonight expect for the back plate and the hand plates, should be able to get pictures shortly.

 

[EliteRouge]

That is actually the best weathering job i've ever seen on a Mark V. Jaw dropping. In some aspects you made that look way better than the mark VI armour. Can't wait to see it finished mate.

 

[Hackmandude12]

Awesome job man! You are leaving me in the dust!

 

[Cadet]

Okay, I just love the expression on the woman's face on the TV

Shoulder straps connecting chest to back will be padded out a little to raise up the chest and have it site a little further back on my shoulder to give more room for the AB plate

You bought a recasted AR!

Looking great Cadet, got any pics of your pistol? I remember it was a really nice prop.

Yeah, that's my $15 AR. It's okay though, I'm going to have crayons sticking out the barrel and out the ejection slot, since we found out in season 3 that Caboose's gun is loaded with crayons.

Sure, here ya go, sculpted by my brother out of foam and then molded and cast in resin:

Double post, but it's my thread and I finished all the painting and strapping assembly tonight (except for the handplates) and took the armor out for a stroll to see how everything was fitting and what needs to be tightened up.

I do have a neck seal and better gloves....just not with me.

Also, I apologize, but I couldn't resist:
