I actually had an idea of carving a mounting bracket for the Stanley boxes. The blank space in them is so big it'd cost alot more to make. But if I covered only the Stanley logo the CNC machine would have a hard time engraving that small. My idea was to put a frame around the name plate that...

I started to make box tags like this for my local 501st friends. I showed one to Kevin and we decided I should make one that would work for my 405th regiment as well. So with some help on the design from Rob Letts I was able to get it approved. The tag is brushed silver on black. It is 12" x...

Looking awesome so far. Wish it wasn't freezing at my place so I could rain. Really like the gloves.

Well I rockes my costume at the Memphis Comic and Fantasy Convention this weekend. Helped out the 501st with some charity work while I was there.

I'll be there one way or another. It'll be a 5 hour drive for me so if anybody in the Memphis area would want to car pool thats be nice. Id like it if I could room up with somebody too. Just message me if you are interested.

They work really well. You just have to get their lengths perfect to avoid spikes on the inside of your suit. Any ways I replaced the car. And I also did a bunch more work on the helmet. Plus a test fitting when I went to a party.

I wore a marine costume at school last year. Whole day, I was exhausted by the end of the day. It didn't help I rode the bus either. I can't imagine that in a Spartan or ODST build.

I have done a ton of work since my last update. I finished the first shin and I am ALMOST done with Bondo on the helmet. Here are some images. Also got paid to smooth out a imperial guard helmet.

I would think it would work but heat guns are like 8 bucks at harbor freight.

It isn't bad, but I'm sure with some more practice you can make a great suit! It is much better than the first suit I ever finished.

If you have not added fiber glass already, I would reccomemd using a rondo mixture to reinforce the front areas.around the visor. I used Hugh's file for my helmet and im having a night.mare about the front part and I wish I.had just.rondoed it to start with.

I either have the part nice and tight and it hugs my body to.stay.on. Or I use machine screws and washers to keep parts on. It is not that comfortable but its cheap and does the job.

I print it out like a pepfile, then I find the faces that look like they can be put together to reduce seams. Then i trace them onto the foam. I leave out small edges and details so I can add.them.later with.foam. I also only print out one half of the file since most parts can just be.mirrored.

Looks great! Just wondering where you found the files. A while back I was going to make a MkIV but I.couldn't find any files for the legs and arms
