Please excuse Dirtdives. Remember, he's American.My first thread after a break and this is what I see...
Dressform is done. I then dressed it up in my armour. I might end up doing the shoulders again. The size seems a little small.
The arms on the dummy are the same length. The bracers are sitting lower than they should. I wasn't able to pull them on high enough. I had to over stuff the dummy so it was firm enough to stand on its own and wouldn't be too squishy and not be able to support any weight.Are the arms of the duct tape dummy the same length as yours? The shoulders look like the correct size since there's a gap between the upper bell and the shoulder strapping of the chest piece. My thoughts are it's just the gauntlet/bracers are just sitting a bit low on the arm and are making the proportions look off.
This is of course coming from me and I looked at a whole buttload of different references from a bunch of media types when making my ODST and it ended up as a mish-mash of a few types just for that A E S T H E T I C and my perception of what is accurate is wonky without having each game character in front of me.

Ha! PB MKII. I like that.What'd you fill PaiganBoi Mk.II with? Expanding foam? Cotton Batting? Newspaper?
PB MKII sadly has died due to explosion.
In combination of not enough tape sealing the back seem, being overstuffed and having a bloody cold basement cause the adhesive to fail allowing the little bugger to blow out.

The only real obstacle I have is how to make my visor with the material I have.
I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
Can that be done without a vacuform?Make a buck and heat form some PETG or lexan. Ezpz
