Hello,
I just joined and am looking to cosplay as Kat (Halo Reach) for a convention in the future. I have never built armour before and am looking for some tips.
I have looked about this and other websites and it seems that there are two options; EVA foam and cardboard with coating. I have been leaning towards the EVA foam because this looks easier but I was wondering if someone might have time to share a few tips or perhaps point me towards some resources or tutorials for beginners.
I am confident that I can create a custom under suit and seals as I usually sew all of my outfits for cosplay but otherwise I am a bit nervous
Thanks!
p.s. This is my first ever forum post so hopefully I have adhered to all necessary etiquette.
