Now that summer is in full swing, I find my hands aching to make something out of all this free time. I’ve had for a while now the idea of making some sort of sci-fi themed armour suit, with some rough designs in mind. Over about 2 weeks of (on and off) CAD-ing, sketching and measuring I’ve settled on a light suit with blazing engines type of design ^^. More on what this type of suit would be for and how the engines work in a later post ;).

For now here is a render of what I want it to ultimately look like. The render obviously doesn’t have the suit proper, as I have frankly no idea how to model fabrics, etc in Fusion. For now I wan to focus on the lie support/fuel pack and engine assemblies, then design the pressure suit to fit under all that.

While not the most ambitious project I’ve set out to do, this is going to be a lot of work. I fully expect this one to overrun into Autumn and maybe Winter.
