Hello peoples. I Densie and I'm new to the 405th and have decided that I am going to attempt to make a Special Ops Sangheili Elite. I have decided on this lovely one because he's purple and that's my favorite color. I have made large costumes before so this is not that far from what I have done already.
.
I know that I can't wear digigrade stilts so I am going to try and figure out something to approximate the look of their stance. If anyone has any brilliant ideas on this I would love to hear from you
. I have platform boots that I am going to use to get close to the height. Thankfully they have big feet so it will be easy enough to hide the boots. With the head raised slightly over mine that should get me close to 7 ft. I am thinking of making the armor out of Komatex, It has a higher flex when heated than Sintra and is also lighter. The under suit with "body parts" I am still puzzling that one out.
I plan on having this completed by our local (relatively) Expo in Calgary on April 2023 so this will be a slow build.
I have not had the motivation to work on a costume since Covid hit so I am very happy to have found something that has sparked that costuming need in me.
