Cheers man, if you need any advice just give me a bell. Everything needs to be bolted or clipped together, glue just won't cut it and won't give you any confidence to move around without fear of some tube breaking bits of it. Also, trust me on this, don't skimp money on the dreads. I've tried every method there is and in the end, I've ordered a proper set of Bambooie ones. Might cost a bit but makes all the difference in both look and more importantly they are light so don't unbalance the mask. Good luck.

Ok, that came out killer!

How did your 'No More Nails' hold up? Any issues with it holding the Foamex together?

No problems with it at all. Used it more as a filler than an adhesive to be honest, there is nothing under too much tension. Anywhere I thought might be weak I used hot glue as well or a bolt.
 
bloody hell, i missed you finished your suit sorry bud.


looks awesome , as said the dreds need alittle training , but otherwise awesome budget build

I actually had the dreads clamped for 3 days to try and put more of a curve into the tops of them. Made absolutely no difference at all. The Booie ones are superb but are staying in the box till I get the mask painted agin. Going to get a spare airbrush from the bearded one this December and try the inks and Prosaide approach. Mixing up paint with latex was a pain and your paint ups look a lot more vibrant.
 
So did a complete repaint of the mask and skin for this year and wisely chose to use Pros-Aide and inks. Soooo much easier than mixing latex paints! Anyway, hope you like the improvements. Unfortunately a drunken mate fell on my backpack and bio, smashing the pack into 4 pieces and splitting Casey's bio almost the whole width. Tool. Going to need major repairs but a great party anyway.

I think it looks great. Sucks your buddy brought some parts. Hopefully it will be an easy fix. Nice work.
 
aww man that sucks! post some pics of the damage? maybe we ca offer some tips. As for the bio. try and match up the crack as best you can and super glue it. mine came with a crack from casey and thats what i did. the seem became invisible and thats what he recommended me to do because its plastic resin hope this helps
