Re: Where to buy full Praetorian Guard Armor?

The only armor maker that produces a full set for purchase is Jim Tripon from the Philippines.

Re: Dave's Build Thread

Nice job finishing the helmet! I wouldn't bother trying to smooth out the base coat. Once you spray 2k, you have a thicker and more durable top coat and you can wet sand and polish that for a good shine.

For crow props gloves, bear in mind that the red leather is pretty dull and flat from photos I ...

Re: Andy's Build Thread

I just realized I never followed up from my last post. For those following, the detachment has agreed to use my costume for the CRL. I sent over all cut out photos of everything last Thursday and am waiting for a response.

Re: Andy's Build Thread

Figured I'd post an update on where I am now. I've taken several rounds of photos and made adjustments.

I've added some padding to the shoulders and hip plates.

These are currently awaiting detachment feedback but I'm hoping we're nearing a published CRL soon.

Re: Andy's Build Thread

Hey Juan, here's my layout below. Your overall measurements are going to differ based on your height and waist circumference so you'll need to measure yourself. I have about 1.5-2" overlap on all panels. The more important thing is the noted angles. Ignore the sides, all 4 panels were cut to the ...

Re: Andy's Build Thread


just had a thought while working on my own parts, would the shoulder fin issue by chance be the base plate, not the fin itself? I noticed that the Galactic armory one is a flat curved piece, but the refs have a slight curve when viewed from the front. Could that be the issue on that front?
