I'd like to complete an ARS suit both to enhance the pdo files I've released for it, and to point some tricky stages that will remain even after an optimal unfolding. This way those of you who want to build it too won't waste their time to much in useless tries and errors, and by the way I'll build the next ones faster and cleaner.
As said the pdo files of this suit may be modifed along the build process, so if you want to use them by now just as they are it's at your own risks. That said, a piece of foam, a bit of time, you won't risk anything that is too dramatic.
I'll use, as always, my usual 6.5mm PE foam rolls from Domyos.
(first issue encountered : how to draw anything onto black foam... :confused)
The suit will remain unpainted untill all parts are done.

Well, let's start with the forbiden-first-part, the helmet. I love challenges.
No particular trouble there, since you remember to glue the chin/ears part at very last ! I left the back 'T' part removable so I can lock the helmet once my head is inside.
I'm not happy with the curve of the blue visor. It's a matter of gluing, I thought this piece was more flat.
Next time, a thigh. Or two.
