Cylon Bracers and Bicep Armor Pepakura Files

Post by JorgeElGrande » Sun Jun 30, 2013 10:59 pm

I really want to be an original series cylon centurion! That being said, I also had to face the fact that because I am a very husky man I would never be able to fit into any purchasable cylon armor costumes or kits. Then I found the Bazooka Joe printable cylon stuff [http://www.bazookajo.me.uk/PaperModels/Cylon/Cylon.htm]! I could increase the size of the print and VOILA! I have the beginnings of a cylon costume that fits me! Only one problem; Bazooka Joe only made the helmet, chest and backpack. As a result, I was forced to play around with 3D modeling to see if I could make up the other pieces (the boots toppers, belt, belt squares, bracers and bicep armor).

I am posting my first attempt at 3D modeling and making my own pep files from scratch. These are the Bracers and the Bicep pieces.

Looks good for a first attempt.

WOW! Awesome stuff!!
One item is you may want to "oval" your biceps a bit, a perfect circle may not fit / stay on your arm too well, husky or not.

This is great stuff! Love to see your work learning a new skill working in 3D and rocking a build - bravo! Looking forward to the next update. Thanks for sharing.

How late am I to the party? :nah:

Will these pep files become available when complete or offered for sale? These are the only parts i require to finish off my armor (thanks to Bazooka Joe for providing the rest).
