Post subject:  Missing Pepakura file(?) // Pep build
Hello all!

I have been working nonstop on my new marine pep project. I have been using all of the "h1rg0n-Nobody" series of pep patterns. I managed to track them all down one by one, however I seem to be unable to find ONE of them, and a pretty important one at that. The back piece! It's the last piece I need to make, and I simply cannot find it. I found the filename is "h1rg0n-Nobody Back.pdo" and I've seen screenshots of it in Pepakura, but I am having no luck finding it. All my searching ultimately ends up with dead links on 4shared. Does anybody know where I can find this one file, and why it seems to be the only one that cannot be found online?

Also, I was curious about any positive/negative feedback regarding these particular patterns. They LOOK like the best ones I've seen, but I just wondering if anyone would suggest a different direction.

Here is my current build progress:

You can also see it all here on my FB album. I have made the album public, so hopefully anyone can see. Feel free to come friend me as well. I like staying in touch. :)

If I can find the back pattern, I plan to have it all ready to start with the resin this week sometime. Of course, I will be keeping my pictures updated as it all progresses.

Thanks to all for your time!

Thanks for the quick reply, Mole! :) I took a look at the whole set here, and it is slightly different than the ones I have been using. I wonder how many different patterns are floating around out there.

The one I'm looking for looks more like this:

It has the indents along the torso edge for the straps and more angular recesses in the back. If I can't find this one, I can try to use the model you provided. Thank you! I appreciate the reply! :)

Ah, I thought it was that one. I'm sure I've got that version somewhere but I can't find it at the moment.

Got it! Its the last one I needed. Thanks!

I had a question that comes a bit late in the process here, but still a curiosity. Whats the ideal build of someone for the default size of these h1rg0n-nobody peps? The more I build it and the more I look at it, the more it almost looks a little too big. But I guess I won't know until it's all done anyway. btw I'm approx 5'11" 34" waist.

With thanks to 88reaper88, I have completed phase 1 of my pep build (time for resin). I am a little nervous about how this is going to turn out, but theres no turning back now!

don't be nervous about the resin I was at first. but wizzed through it when I did chest. what I would do is if I did it again was resin the inside first before the out side as then the weight of resin on card won't bevel it like mine.

Quick update! I just finished the 2nd coat of resin on the outside. I'm a little high from the fumes. ;)

Any input on an ideal number of coats for the front? Looks like I can probably work with 2, but I was curious what experience/suggestions others have.

Hope to have the camo done by next week sometime.
I look forward to having this done, and meeting up with hopefully some of you at coming cons this year!

Thanks for looking!

Nice build!

Is it ok if I use those pep files as well? MAA is gone, and spat armor takes a long time to get, thinking of whipping up a set for Starfest in April.

Thanks much!
