Kahn's Carter Build (Renamed)

[Deltaraven]

Thanks, ill have to check them out. There's areas where I wouldn't mind putting lights on and definitely fans.

Super easy! And super cheap to build. I want to add magnets to my armor to hold things as well. I have been learning to plastic weld into my 3d prints. I also did the same for the lights, so you don't see as many wires. My dream is to have my weapons just cling to my armor.

 

[Deltaraven]

I'm still trying to figure out how to wear mine so things quite slipping down too

I found a few videos that build personal harnesses with foam on the inside to stop the slipping. I plan on trying this soon.

Don't mind my bathroom !!! I am working on my Noble Six for Comic Con.
Too hot for neck cover, am getting the top all tight and snug.
Thighs, Knees, Calf, Boots, and everything else is done, just need to fit it all.

I'm working on updating some of the pieces and losing weight so ill post another picture relatively soon. I changed the knees out because they were annoying now I have the ones that attach to the calf piece so I don't have those flopping around, I printed both the thigh pieces and am finishing those up as well. I am also working on lights and changing the under suit, ill keep you posted, this is just a status update. (also I'm trying to figure out how to make it so my wrist pieces don't slide around so much, I don't really wanna suffocate my arm with foam but if that's the only way...)

 

[Kahn 319]

here's an update on where I'm at.
I finished all the reprints and stuff I wanted to do for the old suit, all the pieces I wasn't happy with have been replaced by better parts. I also reprinted the entire chest and back because I can do it in less pieces due to a larger printer, and I'm doing it a little smaller to adjust for weight loss. I cant finish the chest and back until it warms up because I want to coat the inside with fiberglass resin to make sure it stays in one piece. I would like to wear the finished product to ECCC but it may not warm up in time, however I will have it done in time for RCCC. here's some pics. (also I'm starting an official cosplay club at Oregon state university if anyone goes there and is interested.)

New chest I've been working on used filler primer and aton of sanding to get rid of print lines, putting blue on but it looks pretty good so far definatly an upgrade to the last chest, this one will probably be a part of my costume when i finally get ready to submit for a tier 3 deployment.

I have completed it, I am very happy with it. a lot of people are telling me I need to weather it and at some point maybe I will but for now this is it and its freaking awesome. ive come along way since my foam armor days and even my early 3d print days i know more now and have learned alot of costuming skills. i feel this costume hits the marks on most of my personal requirements, hope you all think the same, let me know

what you think. and im sorry for some reason i didn't take any back pictures but i assure you the back is also dope, i have the lights. don't

(dont) be afraid to bring criticism. i want feedback also im aware of the seam in the front being less than perfect but i figure when i eventually do weathering i can make it look decent. i was comparing it to my last pictures from my previous 3d print build and its so much better ive also lost some weight so that looks better too, its fun to compare.
