Meanwhile, back at the Hall of Justice:

Another friend decided to join our merry little band. In the last year I have also finished painting and assembling what I have of the Koss suit:









The Koss wearer is still working on his flight suit, but the rest is waiting for him. He's had a lot on his plate the last year but he's getting there.

Suit #4 (aka Stitch) has begun production. He wants a modern pilot, largely because it has fewer armor pieces. I've started his helmet, but got off to a rough start when  it suffered a printing error right in the middle of the face. I managed to fill it in and salvage it. I've also got his shoulders and knees printed and fiberglassed. The hose attachement for the helmet has been worked out, and I'm working on bondoing everything in. He's bought a flight suit online, but it came incorrect and now another is en route from the other side of the planet.

Your finishing and painting skills are outstanding!

Thank you very much

I cannot believe this. You are insane. And awesome.

You are awesomely insane. You tackled not one, but three kits, including 3D printed parts with post processing, and soft parts, and reinforcement of 3D printed parts, and awesome paint schemes with great weathering....

I'm completely jealous here. I'd like to invite you to the 3D Armorers thread I started. What printer did you use? It kind of looks like the direct drive hotend of a Voxelab Aquila-line printer, but it isn't quite the right shape... I'm looking for a new budget printer, so any experience/recommendations you could offer would be much appreciated.

You have done great things with these kits. This is the Way.

I'm using a Tenlog TL-D3 PRO duex printer w/ a 300x300x350 print bed. Not bad for the price but I don't know if I'd recommend it based on how many parts have broke down in the 2 years I've had it. I've literally rebuilt it twice over. I've found w/ the TL-D3 you either get one that runs perfectly or breaks down constantly but it's big enough to print large helmets & other parts in 1 piece
