Making progress. Masked out the shell and applied primer. Then applied Homax wall texture followed by lacquer and semi gloss black which is not pictured because it was too shiny. I have hit it with a matte finish and it's drying.
Some of the masked off areas developed orange peel so I sanded...
Well the heavy props used sound board ended up konking out on me. I would have to unsolder the pins, get a new set of pins, and resolder it all back together. Way more work than I want to put into this. BUT The guy I bought it off of from ebay replaced it with a GBFANS sound board so now I have...

Hey guys!
It has been many years since I have built a Ghostbusters proton pack (the last one I did I think in 2012) but I have built at least three. My first one was with a vacuum formed shell. So I figured it was time to build a new one.
My Benofkent pack kit will be here today...
It's a twill cape but it is pretty heavy. I suppose a cape hook would help but even then it digs into my neck when I put the helmet on. Its really annoying.

Just upgraded my belt to a Portumac belt and got new high gloss ABS shins from I believe Korbanth on here, on the way. The belt is AMAZING!!!! All I need is to get my cape satin lined with a leather or pleather collar, get new boots and cod and new shoulder armor and I should be 501st acceptable...
Best Vader representation ever in my opinion. And I look quite good in the suit myself except I am knock kneed so if I don't stand right, I screw up the whole thing. LOL
I'll go. But I am still upgrading so this sounds really bad but it looks great,
