I didn't want to post until I'd fixed the major stuff up I made, and that was part of the inside of the foot being far too narrow for any adult foot. Unfortunately it was in the middle section which had alot of things around it, so I could not merely widen the part I wanted to without completely re-doing half the foot, this took me another 3-4 days. Many sections overlap other sections and its really tricky to avoid any contact with parts when they rotate (we dont want to be scratching that paint job!) But in doing all this I figured out some issues I was having on other parts of the suit so it wasn't all in vein.
I will create the static 1:1 scale display when the suit is all uploaded - (thats the easy part ... )
I am going to go with 5mm5xmm neodymium magnets for the parts that need connecting when putting the suit on but do not need any mobility (ie the section above with the large cut in the shin has 6 slots for magnets which even 2 would do the job but I figure we'll be safe with 6. These magnets are cheap, you can buy 50x for under $10 (rare earth neodymium 5mm x5mm cylindrical is what you want.. )
It's 4am, im just pressing upload..
its a fairly high res set of feet and shins so will take a couple hours. Going to put this one in a dropbox folder of its own and add the parts to it otherwise this patreon feed will be filled up with dozens of updates for this suit.
This was one of the hardest parts of the suit because its going to bare so much weight so its reasonably thick and it needs to be walkable.. hopefully we achieved that.
