Dart placement

<< < (2/2)

Kora:
Give my creation, LIFE!

*ahem* In order to make some chest plates for another merc, I had to resort to ripping apart my neo-crusader chest plate I was working on in order to recover the original boob templates I made. I'd unfortunately forgotten that I'd cut them down somewhat, but I was able to use them to get the darts down, then sort of tried to replace everything else as best as I could. I'm actually a bit happier with this one as it has just a little bit more side boob coverage (something that always irks me about my male plates bent is that they have virtually no side coverage).

So, here it is, the almost original dart placement for my chest plates.



ETA: Just so you know what these look like when "done"-




With some time and patience, the bottom can be flared properly; however I was in a bit of a hurry to get those at least glued and apply the bondo. I'll be doing this same template for my purple kit's replacement chest plates, which will be sintra, so not only will I have more time, but it will be FAR easier to get them to hold the right shape.

Mar'eyce:
Looking good....those really have a nice shape.

ONYXRAEN:
Awesome! I had cut out some HORRIBLE plates from trash can, and if I can't get those to work, I'll be going the sintra route. I'm just trying to find a dealer closer than 50 miles away. Know any place you can just order from?

Kora:
I've never ordered from any of these vendors, but check this thread. http://mercs.firespray.net/forum/index.php?topic=10536.0

Mir'ika Tarvos:
I used basically the same method to make my plates, however, didn't use an adequate compound to seal the darts so they kinda fell apart  :P  I might try to re-work the ones I have or make a paper tape dummy and shape up some better ones.
