I see a mini-me That armor is very impressive, your cuts are clean, seams are nice and it even has LEDs! If there is a Halloween contest for "geek dad hero" you've got my vote. I'm looking forward to seeing it finished, do you mind if I post pictures and links to this thread on my squidoo pages?
For the shins on page 1 & 2 the green line is a mountain cut. Cut the back of the foam about 80% depth and cut a 30o angle down one side of your cut and remove the strip. I would advise a bead of glue in the seam to hold it in place securely and to add strength. This will help to bulk out the sides and bring that definition line out as the shins should not look quite so narrow.
