Re: My son's halloween costume
thanks all.
Sintra came in yesterday. So i got it all marked up and ready to cut. http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...psia1iai6g.jpg Also going another route on the visor. Bought a faceshield replacement and will use window tint to darken it. http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...pszsvslpnf.jpg |

Re: My son's halloween costume
broke out the heat gun last night and started forming the armor and then took advantage of the little guy being sick (daddy stayed home with him) to get some painting started.
http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...pslihzw3aa.jpg also put the clear coat on the helmet. now i just need to get the visor cut out and installed. http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...ps2mmrrvys.jpg |
Re: My son's halloween costume
so yesterday was enough to piss me off. taped up the armor with the design I wanted and proceeded to spray it with the white and orange paints.
TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN.. WTH. http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...pseptqdyoh.jpg http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...psiflnqdg5.jpg so. I had to strip it all the way down and start over. ughh. |
Re: My son's halloween costume
got a lot done this evening. After repainting the armor, I wiped the "vaseline areas" off on the armor and put the velcro on the backs of it to get it ready to attach to the shirt and pants.

Re: My son's halloween costume
Wait it lights up?!?! Like it couldn't get any cooler. Great job, brother! When I was little I spay painted boxes silver and used tin foil and made a robot costume =\ HAHA
Edit: and no it didn't light up :sad |
Re: My son's halloween costume

Re: My son's halloween costume
This is totally awesome -- you have some skills and your son is very lucky!

Re: My son's halloween costume
That'll happen if it's too cold where you paint.
Usually the can says what the limits are, but I think the low end is 50*. It does suck. Very hard. Quote:

Re: My son's halloween costume
as my wife put it. the costumes were a hit. she came around the corner, saw the crowd and thought someone was giving out full sized candy bars. NOPE, it was a photo op with me. lol
me and the little guy last night for halloween. http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...psfiqszgtb.jpg |
Re: My son's halloween costume
Very cool!

Re: My son's halloween costume
Very, very cool. It may be a coincidence but my son is named Luke, my name is Rob, he dressed as a clone yesterday, complete with realistic blaster. I went as Darth Vader, the very realistic Vader helmet allowed me to check out the sexy witches without being noticed. Great project for you and Luke!
