I don't know...I like more this method, but at the end of the game it depends only on personal skill. I expect foam armorsto be more easy and comfortable to wear, resin-bondo armors to be more resistant and last-longing...but I don't have such a large experience...
Would you happen to have a pattern that I could work with? Maybe point me in the direction of your reference material? Thanks a million ahead of time!!!
I can send you by email the .pdo files. I took them from the 405th archive, but at the moment they are updating the archive and I was not able to find them anymore...
