chamfered edges to create groove when joined...

Cheers for this mate. I was looking for just the card version of this but i'm sure it won't be too hard to work round it.

Cheers again
 
err... how exactly do i scale this to my current armor, i'm in the midst of a mark 4 and i scaled it to 23.3 and everything so far fits perfectly (thank god) i would like the train to continue...
 
is there a pdo or obj file for this ? forgive me. but im a noob and in the middlw of the mark 4 build and would love to add those peices, but have no idea where to start.
 
My thighs are complete. Then I saw your Hip piece that goes above it.
Awesome. I have tried everywhere to get peps for this. I am guessing you did not use Pepakura for this build. I could really do with a copy of the one you designed. Perfect makes things easy in life but life itself is Perfect. So why change it. Whoops I ranted on a bit there. Need to lay of the pills. LOL
 
first off.. this build is AMAZING!! and the last post I looked at before I decided I have to do this... now to add this project to my normal wood working, building my niece's doll house, target shooting, and brewing beer lol.

but for a newbie ? (I know.. newbies suck) How much money am I looking at (american dollars) to build a foam costume like this. Just looking for approx here as I'm trying to sell it to the wife who is not a nerd like me lol. i do plan on covering most of the foam in plastic, and will eventually add several servos to create moving parts as I move on, but mostly I'm wanting to get the main outfit first.. then move on to making it ridiculous! :)
 
Totally depends what route you go. Plastic coating will be one of the more expensive ways of getting a foam suit. You are really limited by what foam and paint you can get locally, or what you chose to order in. Its not hard to find out what the costs of this foam and paint will be if you have a sniff around your local stores :)
