Sorry for the long wait but I'll try to show how I attached all my parts and so on, it was a bit of trial and error since it was the first time I put it on during the party. I wore it again on an rockfestival a few weeks later and before that I did some minor adjustments.
The mobility on my first try was very bad so the first thing I did for the second attempt was to dissconnect the forearms from the biceps and have it as two seperate pieces.
This is after it being worn twice so it's pretty beaten up..
I used some soft foam on the inside so the parts would fit good to my body. I didn't need to have a strap in between the biceps and chest from keeping them from sliding down, the foam kept em in place.
The thigh-dongels I decided to glue in place to keep them in as good position as possible. The plate in front is attached with velcro to the inside of the thigh. I know there should be an smaller plate also but one of them got lost during painting.
Also the foam was used here to have a snug fit to the thighs and to push them out a little to the sides so they wouldn't scratch that much against eachother.
Here I used a clip-strap, or what you can call it, up to the abs-part.
After connecting to the thighs I could tighten the straps to keep the thighs held up.
On the top of the abs I added an piece of foam so I could attach a piece of velcro wich would be fastened to the other part on the inside of the chest.
Inside of chest.
The same solution was made on the back for attaching the spine.
Out to the shoulderbells I used elastic velcro from the chest/back-piece.
The bells are glued together to one solid piece.
That's about it I guess, I could show some information on how I fixed the hands and fingers later if there is interest. (Later is question about definition)
Here's some pictures from the festival where I used it last, had it on for about an hour and the sweat was just pouring. Got alot of reactions and took alot of pictures with people.
Still not great mobility tho, but a big difference from the first time.
Not even Iron Man will get in without a body-search, it wasn't easy for them tho!
Since Dragonforce was playing we couldn't resist bringing an Guitar Hero-guitar and rock loose to 'Through the fire and flames'
Everything for the fans..
The fingers didn't really wanna stay in place tho.
And that's it folks! Hope you enjoyed the post and as the icing on the cake here's my birtdaypresent from my kid-sister..
Cheers.
