    TD will still cover it and if you use a solid closure that won’t pop open then use the armor as a sort of corset and yes I’m serious My armor has a gap at the top and what I’m doing is to use said fabric (stretch) and a zipper and make it as tight as I can.

    If it’s only an inch or so on each side you don’t need to shim. You cut the back in half, glue the sides and the TD will cover the gap in the back. If you want a more firm connection/feeling you could ad fabric and a zipper to close the back. I’m building the same kit and it’s just plain awesome to work with

    No worries Jonas, start with the weathering and we’ll take it from there. That will probably ”hide it” enough for ComicCon and then we can look into the other options. Let’s try the ”easy-out” first

    What glue did you use? I’ll be blunt honest and say it doesn’t look all that good. First step would be to reglue the cowl on that side if e6000 were used, second step would be to use creative weathering to try and make it less obvious. With that said, you will get the best looking helmet if you redo it. If a total makeover is necessary than do it on a rainy day with nothing else to do
  12. TheSwede
    Yep I would also add some black to bring the brown down a bit. Also, what happend to the helmet?
  13. TheSwede
    I would be tempted to take a vet rag or paper and try to dab out the brushstrokes a little to make it look more natural. Around the rim of the helmet is just fine though as that was how they did for the movie

    The diagram above is incorrect, this is what is should look like.

    I’ve been going over the pieces and I would say the plastic is fine, as a plastic kit goes it’s not flimsy per say. A good quality kit all in all.
