So this was my second attempt to building a Spartan, I tried in the early spring and my mistake was to pre-cut all the pieces and put in plastic bags, which seemed like a good idea at the time but back fired... Seeing all the bags sitting there with a thousand pieces of foam needing to be glued together, discouraged me from continuing on and I jest set the bags in the corner of the room and walked past them for like a month!!!
Don’t worry I didn’t trash that set of foam, my room mate bought the pieces from me and did repairs on his Master Chief suit… So in April I started again this time cutting out the foam pieces and making each costume section so I didn’t get ahead of myself, I laid out the pieces on the kitchen counter and assembled the pieces as I cut for the costume section… This worked much better for me, I wasn’t the daunting of a task like the first attempt was!!!
