My first build: Mark VI Mjolnir armor (how original title!)

What's up everyone?
No, no pictures still, but an update: I just resined my helmet and forearm pieces, they are now curing so I'll let you guys know how they turned out. Oh yeah, and my computer is working again, so I can upload some pictures once I have something to photograph. Now that I have vacation from school, I can resin the rest of the suit too, I'll probably get it resined during this week. That's it for now, stay tuned to see how my resining turned out.

What's up 405th.
Yeah, so, things didn't go exactly as planned, as I didn't resin my entire suit. I did resin my helmet, forearms and codpiece partially.

The other Forearm piece isn't there because it warped and broke during the process. Rest in pieces.

I am happy with the helmet, it came out pretty well. And no, it didn't warp or anything, the angle is just strange. And I'd like to apoligaze for the lighting, it's getting dark here in Finland. Which brings me to my next problem, which had a great impact on the resining progress: winter is coming.
It took a long time for the pieces to cure (couple of days), and I tried building a makeshift heat cabinet, but it wasn't too helpful. I found that best way to cure them is to heat them up with a hairdryer, but it did take some time for them to cure. I'm putting the resining progress on hold until I can figure a smart way to cure the pieces, that doesn't involve me sitting on my balcony heating them up with a hairdryer. Maybe a proper heat cabinet, but I'm not a big fan of it, as I've already built a Mjolnir armor.
But yeah, I think that's it for now, if you have ANY suggestion at all how I should cure the resin, I'm open for suggestions. I'm also going to try to find an indoor place where I could work on the suit with no problems. Leave a comment whether you like my resining skills or not and I'll eventually get the rest of the suit resined also. See ya.
