I actually started this project over the summer. I have next to no experience sewing but my grandma does embroidery work. Since I only see her during breaks the progress is slow. Essentially she made a single piece suit; similar to a morph suit. I cut out different sections of foam and covered them in fabric, which she then sewed on. The texture comes from covering the pieces in mesh and spraying them with a textured krylon paint. Armor will come eventually. Progress just depends on free time with school.
