Yeah, that is the image they sent me... I just don't see it...

I just think that you would get a better look if you made it out of Foam or Worbla. Not to mention, a HELL of a lot cheaper.

Small update, got the second gauntlet cut ready for enlarging

It's not a great pic, I've cut the gauntlet down the length and then used silicone to temporarily glue the two pieces onto a card template, when I get chance I will close the two ends and start filling the gap with resin and fibreglass

 

[stigmorgan]

Not much of an update but what the hell these are the last four pieces to have any serious amount of work done,
Shin guard still needs fibreglass, only one coat of resin/filler on inside

Shoulders still have a lot of sanding/filling/shaping to do

Gauntlet has a massive amount of work to do to put it back together and finish enlarging it then sanding and filling.


Once these are finished and the jacket arrives I will start working on the attachments for clipping the armour on and off the jacket then I can start thinking about paint.

O. M. G. I've only been waiting for this almost 2 years

Will post pics later, I've only just got home and want to open it up and check it out first.

The helmet is beautiful! Can you see out of it?

everything is blue and a little distorted but it is see through, although I think i will have to take it off now and then to let my eyes rest.

2 years? no wonder I heard people filing claims against them for non-delivery...do you remember what he was charging for it?

- - - Updated - - -

any other sources for a helmet? I reached out to Uratz and he said he wasn't making them at the moment, also reached out to Creative Stress and he isn't either

Not sure who else is still doing them, I know CrimsonCoscrafts and graphic money were doing a run of the whole helmet and armour set, they may still have some available but I'm not sure.

I can make a helmet kit for anyone who needs it. Altough just fiddled with it, because here no one wants to cosplay the AK.

 

[stigmorgan]

Sorry this is taking so long guys but now the weather is improving I can be in my little garage workspace without turning I to a block of ice.
Update coming soon.

 

[stigmorgan]

So I had a lovely email today, the jacket is ready and being shipped this week

So excited, once this arrives I can start getting the attachments done then ready for paint

 

[stigmorgan]

I'm just gonna drop these here, excuse the red shirt and iron-man belt.

And a few pics of the remaining armour parts to be finished

 

[stigmorgan]

First proper sandover done, now to fill the low spots.
I've had an idea to add a couple of led lights to the gauntlets/gloves, would love to know what anyone else thinks of the idea, the inspiration came from a pair of gloves I've seen

[stigmorgan]

Even though I doubt anyone is watching, I'm just gonna drop these here and run


As you can see the chest piece is way too small for the jacket so I had to make a new o e 10% bigger, so glad i didnt wast time and money having everything painted already.
