I am part of those people that have not made an armour.
But the reason i want to do one? It's because i want to wear my own version of my favorite sci-fi armour, the dragon scale the techpriests in 40k wear.
What? You expected another answer
Bad jokes aside, i just felt the urge to create a real techpriest armour, I've never seen one, only robes. With some half-ass wire-mesh for robotic arm, and it just annoys me.
I've seen so many other awesome costumes, i mean halo armours with lights? Iron-man helmets that open and close automatically? And alot of other amazing cosplays.
But not a single awe-inspiring version of my absolute favorite character. Which saddens me.
So if i make it, i could very well make the best looking suit of that type in the world, which is a beautiful thought (now someone will do it, or preferably do a super cool one just before i does, but one can dream.)
Plus it would be fun to take a stroll around town, dressed in armoured robes and just act as a techpriest. And see the look at peoples faces.
I guess it would be priceless.
Plus i've never really seen anyone in town cosplaying, would be fun to just hit the streets and be different.
So why would i do an armour?
*Looks at above statements.*
To be awesome, have something few others have and have fun doing it.
Klomster out.
