Wanted to make my spartan from halo reach have no materials only have a long sleeve under aoumer shirt any suggestions and help pic of player soon or spec list if I can't post pic making from foam and what type of foam should I use?????
 
ok so here is what got from that

You Want to make your spartan from halo reach.
but you don't have any materials - except for a long sleeve under armor shirt

and you would like any suggestions and/or help on this build

you will be posting a picture of your spartan soon or a plan of the armor pieces if you can't get one.

and finally you were wondering what foam to use and how to build with foam in general.

if i have this right i ask only one thing from you: that you calmly and slowly think out each point to a post rather than trowing it all in to a single sentence, this will allow us to help you better in the long run.

now on to your questions
1. materials : foam this is really straight forward but you will want a few different types and of course you need the construction materials (hot glue)
you will want 1/2 or 3/8 inch eva Foam mats, and if you want to capture a little more detail you can also get 5mm and 3mm craft foam sheets
you will need a hot glue gun and roughly 2-3 packs of hot glue (depending on specific construction techniques)

2. you are on a good track with the under armor shirt a good first start for an under suit.

3. you need to know that this can get very expensive relatively quickly (i spent around 500 dollars on constructing my first spartan suit, and about 150 on my brothers ODST suit) so be warned you need to know this before you start.


if there is anything else you have trouble don't hesitate to reach out to us, we are here to help.
