Got my chest plate cut out and bondoed/sanded/primered.  So, all I have to do is a few touch-ups and then I'm going to carve the edges of the diamond in.  Then I just have to paint it.  The chest piece and possibly the ab plates will all be a single piece that attaches to my vest.

The armor is simply a manifestation of an impenetrable, unassailable heart.

Got the ab plates cut out, now It's off to sand and shape.  Then I can start testing my PVC adhesive.

This kit is turning out SWEET! The PVC glue is the way to go with holding those peices togeather!

PVC glue worked like a charm!  These are pretty much done!  Next is the back pieces and shoulders.  I feel like the diamond needs and outline.  Maybe a dark grey...

I am hoping to have this done and bring it with me to Wizard World Austin.

I decided to put blue around the diamond to make it stand out more.  Here's everything I have done so far.

The blue outline really helps it pop.

Looks great, excellent progress.
