Hi!
I decided instead of posting different thread for different projects I would put everything into one thread that I update with progress-posts.
My first finished project, the Dragonscale armor, can be found here: http://www.405th.com/showthread.php/40866-Finished-Skyrim-Dargonscale-Armor-(freestyle-colors)
My tutorial on the Worbla on Pepakura Technique that I use is located here: http://www.405th.com/showthread.php/40880-Worbla-on-Pepakura-(foam-free)-Tutorial
And now on to new projects:
I currently started a Skyrim Dragonpriest Mask and staff (they have a dark base coat so far and will need a proper paint job) and had been eyeing the complete armor. So on a whim I decided to try. Files are - unless mentioned otherwise - by Zombiegrimm. The one exception is the Mask, that file was done by jtm
Scaling was difficult, because I had to build different parts of the torso on different scales. The hip-shoulder ratio for women is just different and if I build it for the hip width the shoulder part was just ridiculously wide.
The arms were broken down in two parts, upper arm and bracers (not seen here). Sadly the mask seems rather large for the body armor but I notice that a lot of game characters seems to have a slightly different body-head ratio, making a figure 8 heads tall which I am not. This will fit me so it will have to do. I hope with the shoulders more massive it will be more balanced. Decoration is - as always - free style.
So far the parts are all done, got some layers of wood glue to smooth out the texture but not loose it completely and are currently in the garage, with their first layer of primer drying.
