Re: War-Machine MkIII
Normally, if you want a nice finish, with perfectly bonds between parts, you wait till your bondo is applied and smoothed before cutting the parts. You'll now spare a lot more time trying to have a nice finish between your parts vs waiting after the bondo stage.
Just sayin .. you know, to help!

Re: War-Machine MkIII
It's not too late .. restick those together with clips or epoxy or whatever that will make it "easy" to remove or cut back. As long as you have a solid bond.
People also used aluminim paper in the past, prevents resin to stick to both parts .. but that's when you want to separate AFTER resin stage. You want to go all back to a solid piece before bondo .. then bring really close to a finish state. Cut, and repair the seam line.

Re: War-Machine MkIII
Hey Big turc i had pm'd you about the issue of technique. After sleeping on it, i decided that i'll let the punishment fit the crime. So i am going to stay on course with how i'm going about this. Perhaps it's the wrong way of doing a helm but in any case i'll gain some kind of experience. Thanx though for your valued input, it's much appreciated...GM

Re: War-Machine MkIII
I got your PM Turc and thanx for the detailed info on the helm. When i get to work i will look into how i can execute your suggestion on getting it back to one piece and starting over with the bondo. I originally separated it in order to do a proper fibreglass insidebthe helm. I have yet to successfully finish a helmet, and i just want to finally enjoy success. lol. Here's hoping that it works. Thanx very much for your help...GM

Hi guys, it has been too long. Came to the realization that what i wanted for this build i could'nt do with modifying an existing pep file nor could i create one. So with great thanks to Zabana for allowing me to use his MkI file as a blue print i guess you can say for the MkIII redesign. That's not the end of my list of thanks folks. Dirtsen a very talented modeller has taken my drawings and modeled them into 3D. Ghost Minion will be printing this up. These 3 gentlemen i cannot thank enough for the hard work that they had put into this. Zabana, Daniel, Chris Thanx for helping me bring this to life. Pics will come throughout the day...GM
