Nice job! I gotta get around to building some foam weapons myself...

thanks! EPS is great, pretty hard for me to get my hands on though :/

UPDATE: i've been getting more done lately, im about 90% finished building the armor peices, then paint them, and make a couple of undesuit peices, then completed!!

so here are some pics;

Love it dude! I wanna get my hands on a recon suit. Still working on my mc build

thanks, the Recon armor is awesome in all the games.

UPDATE:
so it's been a while since i've left an update, and i've done a fair amount since then. i started my new undersuit, started and almost finished both shins, and unfortunately had a few issues with plasti-dip.

i re-did the back part of both shins, as to them not being quite as detailed as i wanted.

secondly, i decided that my next build was gonna be a Caboose Helmet (RvB season 11), i did a test size with paper:

it was a little too big, but i re-scaled the templates and i'm gonna start that soon.

i recently detailed the contoured boots and bum plate:

lastly, i decided to use the last of my pllasti-dip and start the bum plate, but it started raining when the plasti-dip was drying and this happened:

if anyone knows what i should do to remove this, let me know. i don't want to have to rebuild this part

thanks,

Crazy,
Can you just sand that down with some 220 to get it back to where it needs to be? I'm not familiar with the foam builds, but I'd think a gentle hand would do the trick. I'm also a big fan of truck bed liner in a can that can be found at any Lowes or supply store. I you're going for black, it has a rougher texture but maintains a flexible property. Not sure that helps, but maybe it's better than rebuilding...
 
Hey Crazy, would you be able to post the file for the forearms? I've been looking for templates for those for a while,
Cheers,
Ferret304
