Combining and moving my blogs

Blogger is a bitch to manage in my opinion, plus I use it only for these blogs of mine so I thought a bit and decided to move them to Tumblr. Tumblr is a blog, but it has better layouts and is more suited to the kind of multimedia spam I provide.

Short story is short, so here are the links you might want to RSS into or somesuch. I also started blogging bilingually, so there are separate blogs for English and Finnish audiences (same content)

Hardest part done and I like it!

No, not this one. This is the shoulder, quite easy.

Here we go.

Antenna.

Oh my...

Yeah!

So, the helmet. Definitely the hardest part of the whole build due to the very threedimensional shape of it. The planning and headscratching took the whole weekend, but all in all just a couple of days of actual cutting/gluing and I got that done. The rest of this armour is composed of very flat shapes so I'm still confident that I can do this in time...and some sleepless nights.

I can also say that seeing myself in the mirror with THAT on my head made me giggle a bit :d
