I'm working on getting some digital pics of my armor progress...

right now i have all the pieces trimmed except for the bucket.

Thanks for the tips on that RAL!!! much appreciated.

I am missing the Abdominal plate though and need to search for one.
thanks again ral on that ebay one...

I've checked the elbow pieces and noticed that i have two Left armor pieces, i need to search for the right sided elbow armor.

Have you tried the guys at Blizzard Force? I'm sure that someone might have an extra?

Not necessarily. You can do one of two things...you can boil a pot of water or use a heat gun to mold fiberglass. Be sure to let it mold itself, however, when you're heating it. Don't try and force bends and curves when working with fiberglass or it will snap.
