Don't get nasty duffus I was being nice and I've never trolled a single thread of yours, just your ***** buddy david when he starts to make stuff up.
in your very first post you mentioned cleaning up the scans, and the scans are perfectly great to build over, I know someone doing exactly that with the results being a very accurate remake of the original armor
if I was trolling I would point out all the mistakes you made by scratch building and changing things from the original, despite having those said models to go from, but who the helllllllllllllllllll cares about that , it didn't change the overall suit at all, and its pointless to point those out when you really had nothing to do with the modeling or mastering now does it, so I'd only be insulting Finhead not you, and I've not a reason in the world for that.
So not sure why I even bothered with you, your not the one to talk to anyways since its Finhead who actually has all the talent in your group and is responsible for every piece of decency that you've ever been allowed to offer. You couldn't even get the capes right.
And don't ***** about the cave and how you couldn't handle a true critique of "your" work because my first exposure to your work looked like it was sanded with a fork. And based on the work Finhead put into those clips, its awfully disrespectful of his efforts and the originals.
So now that you turned it to me to be honest I have been. Moving on to talk with talent instead of a wannabe.
"75% of this build is not Zbrush or 3D and what was has been highly modded by myself."
Finhead/Clinton,
The only point I can pick on in all your mastering work is that you went so short on neck core, no room to bolt to anything should you someday venture into coring and injection pulls. A core would save you from having to double layer your foam and makes for a much much liter and easier to pull piece, not to mention wear.
Since I'm sure you made the molds too, did you enjoy how close the lats and ceratus muscles are to each other, leaving you on room for shims~ or did you
change that in the original model? even though it looks like you printed in pieces to keep costs down and then puzzled them back together, which is smart, the back if you followed the originals would have left you the same gap between lats and ceratus that is the gap on the zipper. Juuuuuuuuuuuuust enough to get a shim and mold joint in.
I've always felt the lats could have been bigger on the original design, making him look more inhaled, the look he had in the nomex when he was still a little heavier.
Regardless of any changes you made it still came out great, gets the point across and as long as you don't claim end all accurate no one will complain about subtle changes here or there. Its already more accurate than Dullams 1rst, 2nd and 3rd trys so that's a great start in my book having just finished putting one of his together for someone.
Who knows, maybe I'll get to put one of yours together for someone, and I'd still love a pair of your IM boots some day since your still the top maker of IM gear in my book.
Anyways I'm sorry that Kevin had to make me take it in the wrong direction, and since the work speaks for itself nothing I could or would say is going to matter anyways. For whatever its worth, your work has my respect, something your counter part will never have.
