Hey sorry for the double post. UPDATES!!! muahahahaha... sorry omally ish?
So the pep design i used was the hinged ODST shoulder by Kirrou, which btw is not an easy pep but it is awesome when complete, so here's the pics.
here's a close up of the top half with credit to kirrou

here's the top piece, full view, without the top detail piece, i put it on last.

bottom detail and hinge hole for top half of shoulder piece

here's the bottom piece, finnaly built, took a good part of prying myself away from Trigun to finish it lol

here's both together, used picture hangers as a temp holder for the pics

here it is with the top plate tilted up

top plate tilted away from the camera

So now idk what to start, possibly the other shoulder piece or the helmet, need to check out the other UA attachment version that i got from Katsu in his [thread=36142]Reach for the Front![/thread] thread, check it out, his work is awesome as always lol.

Thanks for the compliment Sephus. I try to do what I can to make smooth cuts but its not as precice as I'd like it to be. Just hate knowing I have lots of pin holes I get to worry about when it comes to the resin process.

WAAAAAAAAAAAIT guys you can still do the Chobham and Soft case i finished the chobham last week and literally just got back from getting supplies for my build (does include soft case) just do what i did for the chobham 1 bring up as many GOOD reference pics as you can 2 cut out the bottom and top from cardboard, cut them so the curve, cut out and attach sides, cut out the front piece (it's a good idea to use two ) 3 assemble those pieces 4 cut out the three dark layers on the outside 5 attach those 6 trace and cut a hole into the thigh piece 7 put the chobham in the hole and trace the shape onto the chobham 8 trim away excess from the chobham 9 attach the finished piece
sorry if the directions are hard to follow but i put a pic of my chobham on my wip thread
also the chobham is fairly easy to do and if done right is very nice looking
[edit] just remembered you could probably add detail to the cqc shoulder with cardboard
