1st Build First costume post

[Expendable]

I've been meaning to post for a long time.
I was going to post progress pictures, but progress has been very slow. I am new to forum posting, so bear with me if my etiquette is incorrect. I figure now would be a good time to share what I've got.

I work in cloth, paper, foam, and 3d print.

What I've done so far:
Made a camo flight suit
Printed a helmet and pistol
Constructed nearly the whole armor with patterns from and inspired by Hugh Holder

What I need to do:
Add a few minor details
Prime and paint
Finish helmet and make a visor
Stencil or decails
Weather and detail paint
Now some pictures...

I have nearly finished priming. (If i can stop running out of paint.)
Thinking of making the whole armor a gun metal grey.

So you're at a convention for a 12 hours day... one-piece flight suit. How well does that work out for going to the toilet?

Ha! Didn't think about that. Didn't really have plans for a convention. I really just wanted to make something that looked cool.

One coat down. Starting to regret using rattle cans...

Base coat finished. Can't decide on a color scheme. Needs weathering.
Oh yeah...and I need to make boot armor...

Great work so far! Can’t wait to see the finished product.
