14th November 2011: im lazy yes its been a while since i worked on this to be honest. i like painting but i have to be in the mood for it. anyway one pauldron is done. ran out of paint now though :/
5th October 2011: base coat the non-smoothness is irritating me beyond belief but oh well. im too lazy to sand everything off and start again. just the base coat.
seriously what straight male has purple on his armour.
3rd October 2011: hmmmm still not as smooth as i would like (it only looks smooth because my phone makes everything blurry). it doesnt matter how much sanding i do it just isnt smooth >:[
but anyway ive moved on. done a basecoat of black first. do the real paintwork tommorrow i guess.
3rd October 2011: Pauldrons im aiming to get a couple of coats of mod podge on one of the pauldrons today. im desperate to see what they look like with paint on :<
then all thats left is the helmet.
ill pick the costume back up nearer to kita, i cant keep 4 sets of armour in my room for months
2nd October 2011: i hate sanding i am now covered in white dust :<
sanding is going ok though, but some of the paper clay is still wet so im gunna have to wait anyway to sand it properly.
1st October 2011: shoes half done finished one, needs varnishing though. doing the other currently. hoping i can replicate the paint job D:
pauldrons are currently drying from the clay at the moment.be ready for sanding tomorrow.
helmet is still looking like its being eaten by a judges wig.
29th September 2011: Stuff so far progress of the helmet. looks really crappy at the moment. but its looking more dragon like haha.
and progress of the pauldrons too, one is carved and masking taped. the other is ready for carving D: i hate carving.
not bad for a couple of days work though i reckon.
27th September 2011: progress still working on the helmet, needs a lot of foaming D:
started work on the pauldrons too.
shoes have been primed. but they need sanding and painting.
then i think im done with progress for now. i dont want to make big armour pieces that im gunna have to have sitting around for months.
19th September 2011: Shoes i started my shoes. they look fabulously camp haha. need to prime and paint them.
the helmet looks poo, so i didnt take a picture.
19th September 2011: and so it begins i have started with the helmet because i feel this is the most vital and hardest part to do. ive done a base with cardboard and craft foam, ive just slapped on a layer of expanding foam too. hopefully get some carving done later and it will begin to take shape so i can upload a picture. it kinda looks crap atm XD
