My dad's has been helping me all though my build and he's been a car mechanic for 30 years and a surfer for 20, so he know his way around bondo from car repair and resin from fixing his surf boards. He's taught me how to properly use resin and bondo and he's helped me with making custom fabrication to peped pieces. Plus with foam you lose a lot of the detail especially with helmets and to me most of the foam builds I have seen look like junk. Also my dad and myself are kind of detail nuts

I understand. My plan so far is to use foam for everything but the helmet and the backpack, maybe hit up Sean Bradley for those if he's still around.

Well, looks like I have to post more

Well we've both got a while to go. I would just grind it out and contribute to the community before contacting him, otherwise he may just ignore you.

Just go to elite show case and click last in the page search and you can find a thread started by him there and just send him an email.

I'm almost done peping my armor I'm down to the thighs and backpack I'll upload the pic's tomorrow

I've been doing a lot of peping the past few days so here's the results
I reused some of card stocks sheets that only printed the words and I got a little joke cause of it
The shins are kind of messed up so when I resin them I'm going to have to use supports so they maintain the right shape
