We've been a bit busy. Life, family, personal time etc etc. Just coordinating everything.

I myself have taken this weekend off to work on my armor and walk about Manhattan

Thanks for asking :)
 
Torso Update dooo de dooooooooo:

So, I remodeled the torso and it came out different. Ruze, and his eagle eyes spotted something I couldn't and wouldn't have seen. The ODST torso plate ends just below the collar bone. Take a peek at this
Between the knife and the big chest plate you can see the seam of the Torso armor.

Also, I opted NOT to do the tiny ring around the neck, as well as the back plate son the upper shoulders. In initial tests, those did not translate to Pepakura well, so I have left them out. I am, however experimenting with including templates for people to cut out of foam, illustration board or whatever. I also added the lower side detail buckles (curiass... I think that's what it's called, I dunno my terms :p) We will also include a detailed set of drawings by Ruze when they are complete for reference when it comes to detailing.

Just overall some areas will have some more edges added for smooth sections and I believe these sections will be ready for Pep :)

In a huge piece of news for me, the Independent film, "Drawn by Pain", that I've been working on just got Nominated for a Webby for "Best Use of Animation/Motion graphics". It's a nod to us and me since I do all the traditional animation by myself. The Webby's are a huge accomplishment and we have some good competition :) We find out if we win in a little over a month :D

Looks excellent. Can't really see the model clearly, though- maybe a shaded wireframe in some kinda perspective view would make it clearer.

Also, those greaves are gonna be awesome in pep. The shape is just made for it..
