Re: wetworks

Looks good, man. Keep fighting the good fight. I can't wait for the Hunter armor files to come out. I am gonna make my suit like Spartan Locke's. So, next Halloween me and my kids can go around kitted up. I am going to buy a mannequin so I can store my armor that way and put in my man cave. Keep posting updates. would like to see you kitted up fully when it's all done.

thx man, btw, best weathering "toys"-
oil- may take off some almost dried paint,
grease- kinda like toothpaste, but keep in mind to use duck tape instead of masking type if you want it to stick, and but the duck tape at the dollar tree stores
toothpaste- really good at weathering, but rub some dirt on it so it does look like it's been through a battle
atone or nail polish- I tried both atone rubs off better, but if you do it for too long, you may have to repaint it, but if you use nail polish, it might take longer

BTW, KEEP IN MIND THAT CHEAP DUCK TAPE IS JUST OVER SIZED MASKING TAPE
"CHEAP ONLY"

Re: wetworks

I'm sorry to hear about your armour being damaged, but please remember that cursing on the 405th isn't allowed - even if you're blanking some of the characters out.

Why not take ten to chill, and then explain the matter more thoroughly? How damaged are your pieces? It may be possible to acquire more resources and repair them.

Much lag there is...

Re: wetworks

The pieces were really damaged, so I redid it...much fiberglass used, and I took it for a test run on Halloween, about 67 / 71 people said that was transformers... even the guys who worked at gamestop didn't know what was a wet works variant...

Thx man, I Its not as difficult, but the helmets just really hard to fit my head through... The only place that kinda distracts you is the visor, You have to put poly foam so it wont move on your head...I left a little hole at the to for some air
