Operation Cockbite Part 10: A race to the finish!

At this point i was really starting to sweat. Thus begins part 10! Upon the morn of the day before the flight! i had 1 day left, and i had a LOT to do. so, i started with the biggest and most difficult thing on the list: the head:

Came out a bit too small for my liking, had to make some adjustments:

Looks like a bit of a lip, time to fix!

You think a massive, looming, nigh impossible deadline right around the corner can keep me from goofing off? NEVER UNDERESTIMATE ME!

aaaand back to work. with the head built (and the sharpie rubbed off) larger details started to take shape, like the eyes and mouth:

Next up: the nose:

And that ends part 1 of the final day. Next time: nair. Stay tuned!

Operation Cockbite Part 9

Alright, after a break for a couple days (which will be mentioned later) I'm back! so, we left off with everything from the neck down having been built. Now comes the strapping part, which will be business as usual with nylon straps and buckles. First up, attaching the thighs to the midsection:

Had to cut out some movement room into the back of the thighs so i could actually bend my knees:

Instead of I-screws on this one, I wanted to try something less intrusive, so i went for the hot glue and duct tape method, and it worked phenomenally!

 And, with the thighs done, I moved down to the shins next, deciding that a high-movement area warranted heavy-duty nylon straps and I-screws (foreboding-tron boots up in the background):

Thankfully, that was all the strapping i had to do. The suit was definitely coming together now, and it was looking pretty sweet:

At this point it was really coming down to the wire. The above picture was taken roughly 50 hours before the flight to RTX. So needless to say, it was a bit frantic. Next up, the head, hands, feet, and paint job; a race to the finish. Stay Tuned!
