Mass Effect Cerberus Trooper foam armor *WIP* Now with PAINT!

And then there was primer...

It needs one more coat and then I can sand it down and hit it with spot putty to fill in any other low areas.

Now with 200% more scratch built boots!




Made sure to make them so I have maximum mobility and (fingers crossed) no self-disassemblage while walking around.

I was wondering where you were at...
Honestly, I had kinda put this on the back burner for a while...Now I want it off my bench so I can start my next project. Thanks for the continuing support dude!

How are you attaching the foam to the boots? Glue, velcro, bolts? Whatever you use, I hope it sticks good. Looks like you should get a very reasonable range of motion out of them.

 

[Beer_Money_Props]

E6000 adhesive on the edges of the foam where it was going to make contact with the boot, and medium thick CA glue to bind the two surfaces together.
Once it dried I sealed all the edges with silicone caulk to keep water or liquids from undermining the bond.

Seems to be strong enough that that the foam will tear before the glue breaks away.

As for my range of motion, I tried to put the whole suit together so it will move as much as I can. Time will tell if I got it right or not.

The boots look Great!
Did you use biker boot as a base?
Definitely am inspiring me to get off my butt and jump back into my cerby centurion kit.
I'll have to hit you up on some tip and technique when I get to the leg work. Keep up the good work!

Been a while since I updated this but I'm still on it!

So so close now!



And the original inspiration



I'll be debuting the whole suit at WonderCon next weekend.

I need to get the wifey to snap a photo of me fully suited up in front of that cabinet...Circle of life and what not.

It looks great! I cannot wait to see pictures for next weekend's pictures to show up!

Me too! I'm waaaaaaaaay to critical of my work and it'll be awesome to get feedback from others that aren't also in my head. :wacko

Great suit! I've lost count of how many of those guys have stepped on my head in multiplayer, but it's a reminder of good times nonetheless.
