Still chipping away slowly, but resin cast tanks and fiberglass backplate starting to get worked out and painted. Helmet is almost ready to be molded.

Backplate fits like a glove. Still adding paint details to it but it holds it perfectly with the screws. Shouldn’t have any weight issues or anything.

Almost done with this guy. Still needs the attachment piece where the tube will go and the little bolt that goes on top but… getting there.

Resin tank I’m cleaning up… hoping to start paint tomorrow. Full fiberglass back plate

I feel like my life right now is just mold, cast, repeat. I’ve made two giant molds for the tanks, an even bigger one for the back plate, so many small molds for the tank toppers and greeblies, and I still haven’t even gotten to the main helmet, visor, etc (getting rather close though)...

Molds being made currently. I’ve got the large tank base mold finished, everything else under silicone and ready for the shell is the tank toppers, another knee, another elbow, the backplate, and the smaller tank base. Helmet still needs a bit of work before it goes under silicone. The tanks I...

Not going to be any updates for about a week, due to travel for work. But thinking when I get home, the base helmet is just about ready to have the camera attached and everything (other than the brass pieces) textured. Just a simple test fit to make sure it’s looking right. starting to really...

Painted and weathered the deflector upgrade piece today. Pretty happy with it, and was a super easy paint up.

So my dad has been in the hospital now since December 5th after having a massive heart attack. After surgery, and some really terrible events, I’m happy to say he is doing FANTASTIC and is what they are calling an absolute miracle (thanks be to the Lord). THAT said, I have had next to no time...

Printed and started sanding the knees. They’ll be ready for the mold pretty soon. Tanks have had a decent amount more work done to them, but not quite ready to be molded Made a quick and dirty diving weight mold and already pulled a test casting in cold cast aluminum. The mold turned out...

A couple of quick updates. - helmet is still being sculpted on but it’s getting close to being completed. - back plate is just about ready for molding. 90% of it will be covered anyway but I want to make sure what does show will look nice - the drill has been annoying as I really just do...

Had some more pictures taken today at Spooky Empire. Really happy with this guy for sure, makeup turned out really good today and I took just a bit more time with it.

Just doing some mild experimenting tonight with the shoulders and how I’m going to go about attaching them. Currently, he’s a bit too wide and bulky in the shoulders on the arms so I’ll need to trim those down a decent bit and work from there, but I’m still testing some things out to try and get...

Not my usual type of costume consisting of armor, helmets, or masks, but thought this would be a fun place to share. Not a crazy build, as I really didn’t do anything other than bloody it up and some makeup. However, my wife spent HOURS doing my cape very last minute over the past two days...

Don’t pay attention to my absolutely exhausted face, but I’m happy to say… this is gonna work. Still girthing up the shoulders with expanding foam, but pleased to announce that I tried it all on… and guess what? My theory was CORRECT. Although the biceps are indeed longer than mine and cover my...
