Basically I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the people here on the 405th who have given me advice, encouragement and inspiration.
If it wasn't for all you talented mofo's I wouldn't have such an awesome hobby.

405 FTW

Here are a few pics of my first foam suit over the last year.

This is amazing! Was it all scratch built or did you use pep templates? Is that the first Defender helm on the forums?
 
Wow man this looks so AWESOME!
Can't wait to see some pictures of you suited up in it :)

Is that visor mesh? Either way it looks badass.
 
The mesh visor is a really cool idea! =D Love it, and I love how worn it looks too.

Its the first defender helm I have seen, I think a lot of people are put of because of the visor difficulties (And the fact its ugly ha)

Here are the specs of each part.

Helmet - Pep and resin (SatchamoIII file) - Much love
Chest - Scratch built from foam
Shoulders - Templates and foam (Game files)
Bicepts/Tricepts - Scratch built from foam
Forearms - Templates foam
Gloves - Ebay
Thighs - Scratch built from foam
Shins/knee/Feet - Templates and foam (Commissioned a friend for files)

Sealed with PVA
Paint cans/waterbased

H4BR - Styrfoam, PVC foam board

Thanks. The visor is made from 3mm acrylic sheet which a heat gunned and pressed to shape then covered in a one way graphic (contravison) <--- Link

Cheers, the best thing about making something look worn is that it hides all the bad bits.


I will post pictures of me suited up here once it is all done. The BR should be done by then too.

Ahaha I know the feeling. My very first suit was so unfinished and I made it look horribly beat up to compensate, which resulted in a lot of compliments of "I love the battle damage"


Yeah, totally intentional. =P.

Lets hope I get some compliments on the battle damage at London comic con. It will be my first Con too.

Does any one want to see a video on the process I used on my visor? I am going to redo the red part?

P.S
Trooper 2 questions.

1.How did you get 'Pacific' above your name?
2.Can we do image avatars now?
