OK. So I am currently working on a Jedi armor from the upcoming mmorpg from Bioware. Star Wars: The old Republic. I am one of those who REALLY look forward to that game

I was going to make a pepakura suit, but I went with foam after I discovered how flexible and cheaper it was.
So this is my first foam build

I am trying to mix two of the only really good pictures I have seen of the armor so far.

These two i am trying to get combined into one armor.

Enough talk. PICTURE TIME!

-Bracelet and a hand plate.

-And finally. The entire armor sleeping peacefully on the balcony. :3





That's it for the armor piece pictures.
now for some POSING!

-Just a simple pose trying to get the camera to stand correctly.

-To show of my awesome shoulder pads and the rest of my arm.

-The butt plate is NOT supposed to be that high up.


Time for some CLOSE-UPS!
*Warning. Contains close-ups of the codpiece*

-Obviously the chest part and my epic short beard >:3

-I think you can guess what this is..

-Testing out movement of the legs.
(Could only place 15 pictures here apparently and I had 16..



That was many pictures to control. I hope it was everything.
And as my work continues I would like to hear what you think of my armor so far.

Looks like you are off to a really nice start. Keep it up.:)
 
I know I shouldn't double post. But I don't think anyone would see it if I just edited the last post..

It turns out I could really use some advise on the shoes for this.

I need to make them look something like this.

But if I try to just glue it on top of some other shoes it gets too thick and looks wrong (the foam I'm using is 19mm thick).
If I split the foam to half it's thickness it bends and just look like cloth.
If I make shoes of foam and nothing else, the glue won't hold them together.

Any ideas on how I can make something like that without making it look bad?
