The base coat on the boots are drying now, and I will be able to do the second coat tomorrow. Once that is done I will be able to do the final tweaks on the stand and it will be done.
On a side part I noticed that I was missing some detail on the bottom part of the back.
I cut out some pieces of plastic, white and black.
The base ways about 50 pounds now. It had to be heavy to balance out the weight of the suit.... scratch-building is a very heavy way to make this armor.
I got it all put up the other day and it looks great. I left my camera at work, so I will have to put up the pictures sometime in the next few days. It looks freaking amazing in my office at home.
I am standing next to it to compare the actual size. I am 6' tall.
I also weighed the suit. The base is about 50 pounds, and the suit is about 80 pounds. It was a real workout to wear.
