Hey fellow Preds,

I ordered this custom made suit from Pete Manders 20 Nov 2012. I just recieved an email with pictures of the progress. Tee said, "Some still need dremmeled and touch up repair". I'm 6'3" 205lbs and feel like a little kid right now... I cant wait until its finished!!! I will keep you all updated with the progress. Sorry about the pictures being small

Update: Just got a email in... "All parts are are ready for primer, minus the feet.  The feet take the longest to dry because of thickness.  Feet will be out of the molds within 48 hrs.  The rest of the parts will be base coated with paint tonight or early tomorrow morning.  I let the base coat dry around 24 hrs and will begin finish painting when they are ready.  I will send pics after base coat." Thanks Tee

Looks like its coming along!!! :) (So Happy)

Here are some pics of the freshly dremmeled pulls.  The chest and head are base coated.  In a few more days I will send pictures of finished paint jobs.  Thanks Tee

Anybody know how to make the pictures upload bigger? 
 
Update: Pete Mander is not doing the suite.  Its being made by the studio company that Pete is with.  Its a team from what  I understand.  (I heard they use his molds...)

@Mbzradeloip  I dont know how to make the pictures bigger *help
 
Im getting the pictures through my Ebay-messages... they appear much bigger when I open them up from the small ones. 0_o
But not on here... thanks for Mbzradeloip for trying to help.

profylestudios.com is making my costume.
 
Just a suggestion to avoid the disappointment I had to experience - make sure you get a picture of the entire suit finished before it ships, especially the backpack, the helmet, the blades etc. I hope you get a great suit.
 
Thanks XPredX for the info, will make sure of this... how was your suit you got?  Any pictures you can post and how long did it take to get everything?
 
The torso and the legs were great. The rest was just plain horrible work all over. I've been replacing, fixing and repainting most parts so far in order to have a suit I can be proud of. Once I am done I will put up a few pictures for sure but I am still waiting on a couple of parts.
