I didn't think so - hadn't had too much of a chance to look through it since I finally received it. Seemed very much to focus more on Furiosa/Max/war boys etc.

Awesome! Can't wait to see it. I'm also helping a friend with Furiosa's mechanical arm too. So many things to get done. :eek
May the cosplay gods be on your side!

I don't know why I didn't think to just print the castle nuts. Woops.

I just started my Joe build as well. Thanks to all you guys (ahoudini, Hamsterstyle, and Ein) making the 3d models for printing, it's saved me so much time! I also made a castle nut model I can post tonight if anyone is interested.
Last night was mostly spent working with the transparent worbla. It's an entirely different monster compared to regular worbla. Very unforgiving. Still not sure how I'm going to tackle the chest plate. I read that some of you took a Roman gladiator chest plate and molded to either the inside or outside of it. I haven't bought one yet, but probably will get one from Amazon tonight. Any tips?

Any ideas when the DVD/Blu-Ray will be released? I need to be able to stop/start that thing so I can get better images of things.

It goes HD digital 8/11 and goes on Blu-ray 9/1 so far away[emoji16]

I used the inside, and suggest taping the edges of the worbla to the armor really tight. I also had a little overhang on the sides of the armor to make it a little wider. The Armor as it is, is about a medium I would say. Oh and this is the style I used... http://www.amazon.com/Medieval-Roma...pebp=1438122390915&perid=053RB3149603Y94C5FQV

Looking spot on!!! The ribbon looks really fantastic! I also like that you got the easy rider text in there. Printed out decal? I was thinking the same thing once mine arrives from Shapeways.

Oh man. That looks perfect, but the $70 is probably a bit out of my price range. I'll probably check out some of the local costume stores and see if I can get some cheap plastic muscle armor. Thanks for the tips!
EDIT: I just remembered the martial arts school I train at has one of these that I can probably use. I know it would require molding on top of rather than inside of a mold, but it might actually work.

Unfortunately the armor is no longer listed under prime. When I ordered mine it was $58, plus I had some reward points... So all told I only paid $25.
That fitness body form I think will work great! It's actually a bit closer to Joe's armor... As the Roman armor I used has more of a "gut", while the sculpt of Joe's armor has more of a defined six pack.
Small update to my costume, I found a spot on match for the motorcycle boots at a local thrift store today.
I also completed the chains and ornaments this evening...

That's pretty clever! As far as I can tell, the full-size triceps patch reads "SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT" below the star. I burned my eyeballs out looking for an original, but no joy.

My attempt at a castle nut. It's currently just one size per file (20mm and 15mm), not sure what the exact sizes on the belt are supposed to be. So scale it in your slicing or modeling software as you feel proper. There are two uploads, one is taller and has a smaller hole than the other because I can't quite tell which is right.
