So this thread has been dead for a while now, but i thought i would resurrect it with my LATEST Version of my destiny Exo Guardian!!
Featured at Dragoncon 2016!

To start off I basically scrapped the front plate and 90% of the armor the black version had, to re-work it and turn it into the Year 1 Iron banner set with an Exo helmet instead of the foam helmet. Also featuring a 3D printed Sword of Crota!! At 75% infill this suckers is HEAVY, still hangs on my wall... Also the first print of The Last Word I had commissioned from Lael Lee (which the file is public that i payed for....)

Anyways... Armor is eva and craft foam, the boots i had done with this set were a poor attempt at the Radiant Dance Machines. Never got good pictures of them, mainly because they didnt work all that well lol Next version of them will be better. This suit was worn at a couple conventions in my state. Here is the Mk. 4 Destiny Guardian








After the Mk. 4 House of wolfs had been released and I had decided on a completely new set of armor from Destiny, went with Trials of Osiris chest and gauntlets with Bones of the Eao as my choice for legs! Worn for the midnight launch of Taken King and Dragoncon was the first this suit has been seen at a convention! All the bones on the legs are made with foam, the gauntlet is warbla and the rest of the armor is foam aswell. This may be my final guardian armor. I will have upgrades every now and again but I have other projects id rather tend to
Still a little star struck that I got to meet some of my favorite cosplayers from around the world!! Im so happy I could be at Dragoncon, this has been a life long dream ever sense I had joined the 405th. To everyone there, stay awesome you are the reason others wake up with a smile on their face

hey SpartanJem013 great build man and enjoyed your updates. I had a quick question, I have never tried using EVA foam but i hear from alot of people that it is better to use for armor and armor plates. How do i go about making armor, by means of measuring and fit? Was there a template you followed or did it yourself? I read you went of a photo for reference but how did you go about it on the foam? Thanks for taking the time and consideration for reading this message and hope to hear from you soon.
