Werewolf7171's Armor Progress

Finished helmet
Most recent update


Hey guys, so far I've got the torso and helmet peps built. I'm hoping to start resining and fiberglassing after school gets out on the 21st, but want to do some more pep work first. Tell me what you think.

helmet:

torso:

the bicep tester: I'm not if it is the right size, because even though it looks to be the right height, there is a lot of room inside of it (as you can see in the 2nd picture). Can this be fixed with padding for the time being, because I'm pretty sure that my arm will grow into it, or at least grow some (because I'm only 15, so I expect so bulking up to happen (or at least I hope...)). Or maybe it is just too big I don't know. So please tell me your opinion.

I hope to get the biceps done soon so I can post some pictures.

I'll keep you guys updated.

i think the biceps need to be scaled down more and trust me they are going to be the biggest pain for you because it took me 7 tries to get the scale correct and right for my size

I agree the biceps need to be down-sized a bit, but the helmet and the torso look really good. I see you managed to figure out where you'll be cutting the torso in half; perfect placement of the separation line btw, based on what I've seen anyway.

Are you going to bondo after all the pieces have been put together, or as you go along?

I'll probably do it as I go.

And thoren both of the completed peps are FS's and the biceps I'm working on are Robogenisis's

So I went back and tried to fix the biceps, but I think I over corrected. I think I should go somewhere in the middle, tell me if you think that would work, it would be greatly appreciated.

Heres some pictures:

So, those are pics of your new set of biceps? If so, personally I think you got it bang-on, dude. From what I've seen of the in-game model, the biceps and shoulder plating should just cover up that area of the body, and from what I can see of yours, you did just that. That sizing fits you perfectly, imho. I don't think you "over-corrected" it, you got it just right

Okay, after I looked at it I realized it isn't that far off, but at first I thought it was too short. So thanks for the input.

What an adorable room! hahahahahaha, i personally like the animals hangin out on the curtain rod :]

I think you have the bicep size just right btw.

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates. I have finished the bicep peps, and have resined the outside of my helmet. I have also built the normal definition forearm model as a size tester for the HD one, and need help figuring out if it is scaled right.

Here are some pictures:

Finished biceps peps:

Resined helmet:

And the forearm (all of the other pieces in the pictures are the testers because the support beams are already in the HD ones. And also the bicep is not quiet in the correct position I had to rig it with some string to hold it in place)

Thanks in advance for any help that you can give on the forearms.

 

[Enrisan]

I think the forearms look good. Nice scaling!

 

[Flawed]

The forearms look to be the right size. Nice job on everything so far.

 

[centerside]

Cool, very cool. Scaling is sorrect, where's the other chest pep?

 

[shadow8136]

xD

 

[rvb4life]

Wow, nice job. You should follow through with the HD forearms. They are looking nice right now

keep up the good job!

I am, I just build the normal definition one for a tester. I hope to make it all HD, but that depends on if all the HD pieces are out in the near future.

And one quick question (to anyone who can answer) how heavy is the fiberglassed helmet suppose to be, because I finished fiberglassing it and It is pretty darn heavy, I'm not complaining but I was just wondering to make sure I am doing it right.

I can post some pictures If anyone is interested in seeing them.
