Now thats a nice cod piece! lol looks like my templates werent far off! Ive got some RTV rubber I found the other day. If the gloves are a good size, I migh tjust cast them up instead of fiberglassing seperate pep hands.

well in that case! made the cod piece today and test fitted it all together. the cod peice attaches to the bottom ab plate in the front and in the back on the spine plate. heres a couple pics of it all together so far straps arent straight in the pics..ooops. i need to trim the bottom of the side plates so that they dont stick out the bottom of the cod piece.. but alll and all im happy so far. will get better pics up tomorrow.

heres a pic of the cod on its own..http://www.flickr.com/photos/48594347@N06/4586117439/ not super great still needs adjusting and minor details but will work out nicely. working on the arms right now. modified Fetts templates a lil bit so that they looks a lil closer to the movie screen shots. not sure how to address the elbow. looking for pics to go off of right now. will post more pic later.

In the print folder of the zip file the templates are in PDF format and already sized to print. The documents are also in JPEG format ready to print in letter format in case you prefer that.

but what about the ones in 1:2 scale?

SMOKE · May 7, 2010

let's see if this works. i finished one bicep and forarm with what scraps i had left from the 5 trash cans. went roughly off fetts templates and the imax poster. tried to get as close as i could. still need to add the elbow and the pivot points and well make the other set and legs. but first i need to get more cans.

If you're not real computer savvy you could just print them out then enlarge them on a xerox machine to 200%

Quake there is a button on top of the textbox. It says insert image and you just paste the link and you're done

The ones in the print folder have already been enlarged and are ready to print on US Letter paper.

ive tried it and it wont show..:confused .. maybe its a prob with imbedding with flickr. ill upload them to photobucket later tonight and see if that works.. thanks for the help stealth!

with flicker, you click the share this button above the sets and folders on the right, then click "grab the html", and then just copy whats in the quotation marks. then here, you paste that in the image board code.

if that works for you, cool, if you need any more help let me know and i can make some screens on how to do it for you. i found as great as flickr is to save all sorts of pictures, its crap for sharing.

SMOKE · May 7, 2010

THANKS themanwoaname !!!! you are awsome!:thumbsup
