So this is the first prop I ever 3D printed, painted / processed, and finished. So I'm definitely open to feedback. I still have to add the back belt part but I haven't been able to find a strap or belt that fits the bill yet for cheap. I also added some foam on the inside so you can put it on comfortably. Drilled out vent holes for intake at the front and added a battery powered fan to keep cool if worn. The last couple photos are from the original print and assembly.

I definitely think I could do a better job with the acrylic wash to make the indentations look more pronounced. I also had trouble doing this in the already dark / black parts, so any recommendations is welcome!
