Natti's budget suit WIP

[Natti]

Hello fellow hunters! I thought it was a good time to put up a WIP just so I can show off what I have been working on. This is my first time ever making anything close to this so I thought I would start with a budget suit for 2009 and work my way up to a better suit for 2010. I want to thank all the awesome, talented, and helpful people on this forum. If it was not for them I would not have a clue as to what I was doing. First off I started on a plasma caster. I made it using foamies, pipe insulation foam, and a Pringels can. It cost me a little under 8 dollars American once it was done and here it is.

Pringels can is so I can pop off the side of the caster and in there I will house a light that will flash out of the caster.

Here is the caster next to a Armaflex dred I was working on.

Next I stared on a shoulder bell (thx to vin manmac for the armor templates). This is it with primer paint on it.

The bell cost me 3 dollars in foamies and foam that my work was trashing.


Well more to come and any feed back is greatly welcome.




cheers!
Natti

I am glad that somebody else is attempting the armaflex dreds. All looks good and keep up the quality work

Some more of what I have been working on.

Rubies mask I got on ebay for 30 bucks.

and these are what my gauntlet blades will look like(thx to mumbaki).

and I started on my med pack (will add more to this)

med pack was 5 dollars to make used foamies and some foam my work was getting rid of.

more to come

Your suit is looking Killer so far!

 

[UltimateHunter]

I like how you set up that torso armor. With kinda a P1 feel. I've been trying to figure out the problem about how to connect the breast plate with the rest of the suit. I tried belts but you solved it by making it a one piece (more or less). NICE!

Looken Good man! keep up the good work

 

[Natti]

Just messing around ................ One of my friends was like put on your predator suit(or what I kind of have right now) and I put it on and she took my picture. The muscle suit and monster glove were from a costume I did last year.

 

[Natti]

Here is a update, well I'm slowly getting there with my budget suit.

More to come and thanks to everyone for the guidance and feedback!
