Also there's a primer out there called primer filler that fills small imperfections like that if you're too against it.

Thanks for the tips guys. I might leave it for now and see how it works out... Working with what I have for paints..... No cash to buy things like that

I had actually thought of that... Be something to go into one of the beast brigades with it.... Would have to kinda change up the color scheme.

it has been a real pain in the shebs...... literally... cuts all over my hands and little hot metal shards flying allover the place.... almost as bad as the sand on tatooine. hardest thing i am having trouble with is the edges. i have them mostly rounded out but everytime i think i did a good job removing the burrs, more show up.....i have to figure out how i am gonna assemble the gaunts..

Yeah....... Might have to rivet them then shape. Only thing I can think of to keep them lined up. I would weld, but I lack the skill for one. Two, the metal is thin. Thicker than sheet metal of the roll but not by much. I'm actually surprised as to how flimsy it isn't.

My brother and I are gonna try to weld on some scrap sheets. If it works, I can think of a few things that are gonna be welded. On a separate note, I got my shins and foot armor cut out... All that's left is the shoulder

I don't know much about Legacy armor, but those legs look a bit bulky to me.  Could you get a shot of them from the side rather than from the top?  And put on some pants, yeah?   :P  :laugh:
