I thought about using toothpaste if the vaseline didn't work. Does the exact same I'm assuming. I just find vaseline easier to clean off than toothpaste (I imagine it leaves a film?).

@Hyo
looks amazing so far
and the paint tutorial is fantastic!
however, one thing i'm slightly disagreeing on is the UA/Multi-threat shoulder
i have a slightly more preference to this file: http://www.4shared.com/file/VNeC77W3/UA-Multi_threat__Ruze789_FJPAR.html
i think it's more the shape seems generally more correct compared to the other one

Thanks for the input, but the shoulder guard is already made and bondoed, and like 90% done... I don't have time to remake another one.
I'm alive I swear!! I've just been busy with running an out of town convention. But I'm back and driving harder to get this finished! (original one is the grey one)
So I'm lazy, and I didn't want to make two handplates by hand... So I made one, then made a mold of that one, and pulled a cast today and it's perfect!
I think I'll be selling just a few of these casts here and there (as pairs, obviously), but decently cheap. Though obviously they'll most likely be for female spartans or spartans of a smaller build. They are exactly 3" wide and 2.1" tall. They'll be available in the classified section later.
And just a preview on the thigh, kind of. In the works on attaching the vinyl on the inner thigh. It hasn't been 'glued' in yet. But just showing it off so you get the idea
Inner part of the inner thigh
And the back of the inner thigh. The vinyl went higher than I meant, but oh well, still looks good.
Hopefully within the next day or two, I'll have from the waist down, COMPLETELY done, strapping, padding, everything. Hopefully.... We'll see how much my hand hurts then.... [pro fail right here, ghetto bandaid ftw]
I dremeled my hand by accident, then later that night I got nailed in the hand with the ball in field hockey. Same hand, same spot. fmc (f*** my couch... I say that a lot)

Well then... lets see some progress from you, then won't seem pointless.
Hyo.. you need to take some pics showing us that he is working on it. I want to SEE the sweat, blood and tears pouring out of him. JKing!

This is looking awesome Izy. I might have to check out your handplates next week. If they're a close enough size I might get some from you.

Thanks Venture and Bradinator.
Yeah my colours is primary white, secondary red. I was debating light green as secondary for the longest time cause I really liked the combo with that too... But I picked the dark red as red is my fav colour, yet I didn't want a FULL red suit (I like white for the whole outfit better).
Look, a tutorial! Gasp! Link here: http://hyokenseisou-cosplay.deviantart.com/art/How-To-Worn-Look-on-Pep-244871706
Hey thank you for this! I was wondering how people did this effect. BTW, Your build is awesome!!

@Venture: Thanks! I'm loving them too!
@Roxy: Thanks! Yeah I need to start doing more tutorials, people keep asking me too.
@Sidewalker: Thanks! Yeah and if these handplates (female/kat) don't work out for you, I'm also casting my bf's handplates (male/noble 6) and they're a fair bit bigger.
@Deadpool: Thanks!
@Blackula: No prob, hope it helps!
@Thorn: Thanks! After PAX when I'm not under a tight deadline, I plan on remaking my undersuit... The vinyl I have on it now, makes me not a very stealth spartan lol.
Have a slight teaser for what I finished today.... Lemme give you a 'hint' (not a very good hint): From the waist down
If you're been keeping up-to-date with my build, you'll be just as excited to see what I have done as I am to wear it (so far). lol
And if you're on my facebook, then you get to see what I have done right away!!
Also just a little side pic; moved 'shop', or at least for THIS project, to the garage. I moved from my work room in my house, to my deck, to the garage. Firstly because of the fumes, then because of the dust, then cause of the moody weather. The garage let's me work without needing to worry about fumes as much, dust no biggy, and if it's windy, haha mother nature! I can still work so eff you!! lol
Making my bf work on his suit a bit too, trying to take off a bit of the stress off me for needing to making two suits:
And I've been making some progress on his helmet, should be able to finish 95% of it tomorrow. Picked up a blue visor the other day, and put it in just to see what it'll look like. Looking pretty sharp!! So at the VERY LEAST he'll have a helmet for PAX.
MORE TOO22MAAAHHRRROOOOWWW!!
