The Irish Cowboy's Conversion Thread (JORGE/JUN) PIC HEAVY!

[IRSHCWGRL]

I planning on converting my Mark V so that I can be Jorge & Jun of March next year. My Mark V has base parts, so this should be pretty simple! I'm starting with Jorge, many of my parts are being re-done and edited for this. Criticism Welcome!
Pics!

all that foam work is incredible.. Keep up the awesome work

 

[ArktosPendragon]

Wow, that's looking fantastic! I really like the proportions of how the pieces are to each other. Awesome job.

 

[IRSHCWGRL]

Thanks guys! I think i'm actually getting the hang of this stuff!

Jorge Updates:
The foam flexes SO much, the entire chest droops with just the weight of the helmet, I think 'm going to add another layer of foam under the sides of the yellow add on, so it sits higher in the middle instead of drooping. I'm also going to re-do all the black details on my base pieces. The forearms are going to be regular ones, with the Jorge add ons, the backpack will be out of supported foam, but functional! So i can put my stuff in it. And the shins with have the UA Attachment (not seen in-game). Thats the only difference between Jorge's shins, and the base ones.

Jun Updates:
Helmet-> resined
Waiting for chest file (add on)
Every part of my armor is customizable...due to velcro for any attachment! Therefore, knees, wrist add on, fannypack (lol) , and shoulders can be swapped out

Both the sniper & chain-gun will be made of nerf stuff, cardboard, styrene, foam, and scratch parts
All for now! Busy weekend coming up, no time to work

Jorge Updates:
Forearms + UA done!
The base forearms and add-ons are complete! they can be detached also.

This is amazing!!! The velcro is a good idea, i personally am using magnets for my suits attachments.

Question: what did you use to make the cylinder on the chest. Foam as well?

 

[IRSHCWGRL]

[IRSHCWGRL]

Backpack done
Its a lil lopsided, oh well, the foam flexes WAY too much! But, its done. The back hooks up and is screwed onto the back of the chest, it sits perfectly. It is pretty dang big too. Sorry for the crappy pics....

 

[thorn696]

Wow...Now that is some real nice foam work. The pack looks assume. Can't wait to see how this one works out.

 

[ISRjustgun]

What did you use for the visor?

 

[IRSHCWGRL]

A motorcycle replacement one

 

[Constrictor]

Can't wait to see complete costume. They look really awesome!

 

[IRSHCWGRL]
