Hey guys!
I just recently started my first kit and got a little ambitious so I decided to do all metal armor!
My husband (Den Barren) and I designed the plates a few days ago, so I spent the last couple of days shaping the plates and then painting and weathering them.
I still have quite a bit left to do as far as the weathering goes.
Let me know what you all think!

Before paint!

After!

first off fantastic work over all, second and some one should correct me if i'm wrong, cause i haven't had much experience with female chest plates, but shouldn't there still be spacing between the chest plates and the diamond. 

[Lek'Ral]

There will be! We haven’t cut it out yet, but we definitely plan on it!

  cool cool, again fantastic work, one day i would like to upgrade to an all metal kit.

Beautiful craftsmanship! As you said, once you cut the sections for the chest diamond, you're golden. I can't wait to see more of this build!

Just finished weathering the chest plates! I still have to cut out the center for the chest diamond, but I think it’s coming along pretty well!

Saw this on Facebook. Looks awesome. Can’t wait to see how the rest of the kit turns out.

Wow....off to a fantastic start, Lek'Ral!

Another update!
I just finished the shoulders, as well as the cod plate (knees are still being painted). I made a couple of filler plates because I thought that the gap between the collar and my chest plates was going to be too big, but I don’t actually need them.
My husband and I have also been working on my cape (behind the belts, shoes, and gloves) and my vest!
I also attached a picture of my boots, gloves, and my belts that I plan on using.
I would love to hear what you all think!

This is all looking really nice.  Any chance we'll get pictures soon of all this on you?

Once the vest is at a place where it will fit correctly and stay on- yes! I tried it last night and it just didn’t do it justice with how loose the vest was since we haven’t closed the sides yet.

[Havelock]

Fair enough.

Great work so far.

[Lek'Ral]

Great work so far.

Thank you!

Okay guys!
I have finished all of my soft parts!
I was going to go for a burgundy flight suit, but decided to go with teal after finding scrubs that matched perfectly!
After tailoring, I sewed the two pieces together and added a zipper down the front.
For the vest I used a pleather material with 3 straps on the side that close by a snap on the back!
All to do now is finish my helmet and gauntlets and attach the rest of my armor to the vest!

Soft parts look awesome!
