Pretty much ditto, except I used 1/2" PVC.

Those pictures are making me feel really bad about my FX helmet. How big of a noggin is TOO big for the more accurate helmet?

I was afraid to start working on it for days!

I did it over the couse of a few days, about 30 minutes at a time tops. It probably didn't take more than 2-3 horus total, but I wanted the paints to dry. I used tempura paints. http://bassofeesh.tzo.com/public/costum ... hering.htm

I actually have a couple of pauldrons, so maybe I'll find a more permanent solutions. Thanks for the ideas though, I'll perform a few tests maybe.

I went totally without fasteners. I simply rivetted some nylon straps around the frame at the correct length. For me it's simply easier to slip the pack on without worry about trying to find & snap the ends together.

Along the same lines, does anyone have advice for either temporarily or permanately coloring a white pauldron? If the garrison walks in next year's St. Patrick's day parade I'd like to color the 3 panels green, white(already that color), & gold/orange. i.e. something like this quick photoshop, but better.

Looks really good, but I have two nitpicks: Dirty up that ammo pouch, & lose the thermal detonator. Congrats on that filthy armor!

Yeah, buy the longer one & cut it down to the size you need.

If you're looking for canvas, those will certainly do.

5'11"

What material is that made out of, because the finish doesn't look quite the same as my armor did when it was clean? Looking good though.

I put everything into a large (Rubbermaid?) bin I bought at Menard's, with the exception of my backpack. I usually just put it on top of that bin since I couldn't fit much more in my car.

Sweet helmet!

Like Slave1 did? Find a picture & I'll give it a shot.

Yeah, if you have a particular picture in mind it shouldn't be too hard for someone with minor photoshop skills to simply do that for you.

There's also a vote on 4 changes to the charter at the Yahoo group, I believe.

I tried a bunch of colors before settling on this:

Ditto, TD-2779

Maybe it's just the photos, but I'd say MORE DIRT! It looks quite realistic though, good job so far.

oh ......so right!!!!!!! Welcome!

Yup, coming along nicely. Good job. Kitty Litter boxes
