Sorry to hear you've had to sell another suit. Hope you get what it's worth, as your work is awesome!

Hi shaun. Its definitly a shame. This time i was getting closer to finishing it.

Hi JayCvenlo.. That's an awesome suit u have.. I got motivated working with these after seeing and reading your threads..

I'm planning to use 3mm thick sintra for the whole suit except for fingers (2mm thick)
Is it heavy? Hard to bend?

3 MM is the best. I used that too.
Great too hear my build inspired others!
Good Luck!!!

Earlier in your thread I noticed you stated that sintra has a bending direction, kinda like cardboard. With cardboard it's easy to find that out, but sintra not so much:lol. So I was wondering how you determined your sintra bending direction. After I saw that I bent my sintra in both ways but I didn see a difference. Thanks in advance!

There ain't that much of a difference, but i had some plates wich definitly had a different feel to it in opposite directions. one direction was smoother than the other.
if it bends smooth in both directions... even better.

Good luck!

no paper was used. only sintra. glued together with superglue.
Fibreglas was normal cloth with polyester resin.

How much did it cost to make the suit bc allowance dont pay much

 

[JayCVenlo]

Just use a normal hobbyknife. Stanley.
how much. Difficult to say. materialwise maybe 300 dollar+250 for a cold cast of the helmet.
