Alrighty, So i began working on the mark 42 armor and im using 6mm foam all around for the most part and 3 mm ones for some parts. If you guys can suggest any paint for the mark 42 it'll be much appreciated. Pics coming soon

ok, its been a really long time since I posted in this, but that's because this school year has been really hectic and busy and I simply didn't have enough time to dedicate to the suit. But now that it's summer I've finally had time to continue so I will be posting regularly

pic of the forearm pieces already cut out. It might be scaled a little small so I might have to remake it

Looking great so far... here is mine to give you a little more motivation in case you need it. Still needs to be sealed and painted. Not sure if I want to go with mark 42 or 43.
Cheers!

Looks like a great start. I'm thinking of doing my own mark 42 build in foam. Did you have templates for the armor pieces or are you winging it?

I'm using halegaks files and jfcustoms files.

Hey guys. I'm really sorry about not updating this thread and not posting pictures of the build as I said I would. But I've been really busy with applying to schools and such so posting here kind of slipped my mind. But there's good news! I made a video instead to make up for this! Please watch it to see the majority of the build processDDD

oh yeah, and my bad for titling this thread mark 42, up until I started painting, I always thought I would be doing the 42 paint job until I had a change of mind and decided on the 43 haha
