My thanks go out to AntCarb and his team for designing & building this armor, what an awesome job and amazing detail!
Bio, teeth necklace, torso armor with backpack, spine armor, shoulder cannon, and knife scabbard, shoulder armors, blade and countdown gaunts, waist front, back, and thigh armors, shinguards, and toedusters, all superb work
Thanks to Bovine13 for designing and making the facehugger dread rings, every little detail is there!
And thanks for the dreadfalls
And my thanks to Dakath for designing and making the feet, they're just right
The feet, dreadrings, and bio needed painting; the latter two to match the color scheme of the armor, which came already painted.
I used same skin (Bal Togs bodysuit), hands (ebay), mask (Pirk Elder from Silverado) w/ dreads (Bambooie) as before.
Also needed a way to hold it all together, the torso pieces, spine armor, shoulder cannon, knife scabbard, shoulder armors, waist armor and thighguards, and toedusters.... thin leather, velcro, and magnets to the rescue!
Here's a massive amount of pics and info on the build:
The cannon needed something to adapt it to the shape of the torso armor/medkit scallops, so I played around with that two-part foam...
cannon mounting hole:
checking where cannon goes:
Paper form and twopart foam:
peel paper off:
shoulder cannon fitting wedge:
Redid the wedge:
Paper form and twopart foam again;
saran wrap protects the armor from the foam:
closeup of mount in mold:
peel the paper:
Strap for cannon glued in:
bottom view of foam:
