Printing question: This may have been covered before but there's A LOT of pages to go through, so I apologize in advance.
I'm doing a MK IV armour and I've done the helmet and the neck (I downloaded the .rar from the begining of this thread...Thank you Robo BTW). Anyway the helmet and the neck went fine but when I printed the shoulder plates (and didn't scale to fit) several items were cut off. I reprinted it (scaled to fit) but I don;t know if they're too small.
I'm using letter size card stock.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I've attached my progress pics as well (this is also my second helmet attempt...the first didn't go so well).
Thanks
JMar

I believe the default is a size 10 to 10 1/2. That's what I have anyhow by default.

I'm a size 10, and I used the default scale. They fit me.

Nop, it doesn't have joints yet, It is in parts.

personally for the elbows, i'd use some rubbermaid plastic to make a disk matching the already pepped joint disk.
then, have the elbow and forearm fused as one piece, and put on the bicep and elbow so you can mark where the joint should be on the bicep. then, fuse the rubbermaid disk to the bicep, and punch a hole thru the center of the disk and the pepped disk.
afterward, just use a rivet or something to join the two pieces and you have a good solid rotation joint.

idk bout paper fasteners, but anything that will stand up to some tension. personally i'd use some type of rivet about a quarter inch wide so its flared on both sides and wont come out.

So I have been monitoring this thread now for 3 months+ and have been building the entire suit... I am finally at a place where I am excited to show it off.
this is the first pep project I have ever done, same with working with plastic and bondo.
Currently we have about all the parts from the codpiece up nearly ready to paint. Everything below ill be done within 2 weeks.
Everything but the helmet was crafted from Robo's artwork. Robo you did an amazing job preparing the pep files for us!
Later today we will be adding the programmed lights and movement to the mask. I am so excited!

Hey Spondoro
pretty sweet build. i'm sure you've read from previous posts, and a lot of other people out there want to know what your build scales you used and your body dimensions. (height, waist, boot size )
can't really see the arms too well but did you articulate them somehow?
thanks and keep up the good work.

I kept mine pretty much the same scale as the original files. I did expand the codpiece and abs 5% as I could not fit into it at all without adding about 2 inches around it.
My size is 5'9.25", 160 pounds, shoe size 9.5. Wll be working on the feet this week.
