Hey there, Thanks all for the kind words and the tips on how to finish. Doog, I take that as quite a compliment coming from such an accomplished builder as yourself. Excellent job on the FSM article!
renarts-that's some interesting info on how armor was made. Was there anything urine wasn't used for in those days? Personally, I'll take Kevlar. It's never been comfortable and I can't imagine metal being any better.
I don't know if anyone noticed, but there's one spot on the coat (tunic?) that's waaay too glossy. I had to go back to do some touch-up and naturally the paint wouldn't match up. That's why I was asking about dull coating.
Well, one more work day then it's time to play...
