Re: Building some METAL Colonial Marine armor (aliens)

Thanks! I am pretty pleased with it all.

I haven't done anything crazy drastic since the last update, but I'm going to call it done for now. I went very lightly weathered instead of kicking the crap out of it. I hope eventually I have some events to wear this thing and hope actual use will break it in.

I suspect it will never be truly "done" and I will try to improve upon various parts and paint as time goes on, but for now I'm gonna take a little break and focus on the next project.

My 'finished' armor:

Looks great. I went though the same 'looks to bright' phase. Then hit it with charcoal and it toned it down perfect.

A little over 2 years later, I decided this guy needed a repaint (and a little sprucing up prior to potentially selling it). For the repaint I wanted the colors to be more accurate and decided to go with a Hudson theme. Pretty pleased with the results.

All wrapped up. (pardon the crudeness of the display. Screen accuracy of the clothing on the mannequin wasn't the goal as it won't be on display long)
