nice

Of course, the shoulders will NOT lay so flat like they are shown in the picture. When they are finished, they will look different than what you see here

I actually like the shoulders better the way that you have them. They look more streamlined and functional. Very nice work.

 

[deactivyoke]

What shoulder files are you Husein. Because the ones on the index seem incredibly hard to make. Is the busa chest pice seprate from the other one???

Now that is high-speed!

Okay...........BIG problem. Literally. Once again, I have a piece of the armor that I am making that is once again too big for my body size. *sigh* I have 2, 3, maybe 4 ways I can get around doing this. I can either:



A. Alter the piece I am currently working on by cutting out about 2-3 inches to get it closer to my arm. Down side: This could result in losing a part of the detail and it won't be there anymore since I would have to alter so much of it to get it to fit right.



B. I could make the female model instead. Down side: The part that that goes over the elbow is VERY narrow and I don't like that very much. XD Actually, it's just a bit too narrow period. See what I mean:

Plus, the female model still needs to be unfolded and in order to get it right, I would have to unfold it EXACTLY the same way that the male model is done so that I can get the right pieces to line up correctly.



C. Use pieces from BOTH files to make it to my liking, but that is a pain in the but doing it that way since I did have to do it for my shoulder pieces. XD



OR



D. Someone could be super nice and make a different model for the female but NOT make that part that goes over the elbow so narrow if it's even possible. HAHA



But here is what I got so far so you can see the "BIG" difference.

wow your armor looks so cool, great and clean keep it up

 

[Outlaw Tiger]

hmmm, doln't know if it would work, but could you cut a couple centimeters out of the piece here and there, to total up to the amount you need ? but just pick and choose the areas that don't have very much detail so that it doesn't cut out anything ? like in the underside of the arm, and a bit on the inner side of it ? (just thinking in type with this one... i have no idea if it would work, but it might be worth wile to look into)



hope that helps at all =S

O.T.

 

[Roadwarrior]

I could quickly edit the 3D file and unfold it for you and then send you a PM with it in it.



But i would need the file, Or you could ask who made it so they could do it.

what can i say that others havent already... .. /salute! totally awesome build and cant wait to see it done

 

[stagefivedrift]

What if I made the part that goes over the elbow wider and made the whole thing just a little larger?

 

[Boba Fett]

I'm only 16, and really smal for my age. (5'1". oh yeah...) Same problem. I agree that the best idea is to take out say 1 cm slices of the armor, then re-attach. Then, I would make your undersuit a bit more bulky in those places. I mean, these armor pieces are meant to fit a 7 fott musclehead, or scaled down, 5'1" musclehead.

 

[stagefivedrift]

Something like this?

 

[Kamaro]

That armor looks good on a lady



Regarding your problem, this might helps you:

I just turned 16 myself, I'm not small by any means, im about 5'7". And I have the same problem. I have no upper body strength because I am just a runner. So it's a matter of not being a total musclehead like you said

Nice progress HaloGoddess, i love the hayabusa, and i'm started on mine

 

[Steffenator]

Ok H-Goddess, just how do you keep your folds and glues so flippin clean? I use a glue gun and my parts always look like a hairy mess... Ok, that didn't come out right.



Great job so far. That armor looks fantastic on you. What colors are you going to use?

 

[Macattack64]

Don't use hotglue. I'd recommend you use something like, elmers glue (in small amounts on the flaps), super glue, etc.

 

[Steffenator]

But but but...

I heard that super glue, etc will disolve when you glass over it. And my glue gun sets up in seconds... niiiiice, just messy.

how this all works out!
