welcome 405th members since i joined ive been working on somthing to bring to this community that hasnt been done before a costume mainly to wear to comic con 2010. I started right after comic con 2009 and was waiting until i was sure enough abount this project to present it to my friends here at the 405th. As a whole i dont have much done but ehough to know that im going to see this through to the end. I would like to appologise ahead of time for the crappy quality of my pictures and if this is in the wrong forum.
As you can tell from the title this is a hunter costume build using the pep files made by advent spartan matrix and unit spartan 007 (thanks.) ive seen a couple of different hunter costumes all worn like a costume i wanted to do somthing different a fully acurate huner costume when its finished this suit will measure the full 12 feet of a hunter and if all goes well a fuel rod gun that actually fires. im hoping that this will turn out the way i want if it does then it will be my greatest work... i hope. currently i have the boots, thighs, cod piece, and shield peped and one boot is all but painted. My current plan is to get myself 1 foot of the ground using platforms in the boots, im 6 feet tall and the suit will extend another 3 feet past my head not exactally 12 feet but remember that i need to be able to enter the convention hall.) So without further adieo my first real project. (again sorry for the bad quality.)

the boot supports
so there are all the suit pieces i have so far i know this project is going to be hard but thats why im doing it. and i know that with the help of the 405th that this suit will one day march with the rest of you. my fist big problem that i would like help figuring out is in the boot supports i had to cut out the bottoms in order to fit the supports into the boot and right now it is not attatched to the boot it self, im going to fill the walls with expanding foam to attach it to the boot and i was given this material to pad the bottoms with for grip...

ive already cut them to size so i need to know what the best way to attach this padding to the bottom of the boot my current plan is to hot glue it to the support and add tack nails for security and then fiberglass around the bottom to attach it to the boot. this is just a theory so i would like to know what the experts would have to say about it and if you have a better plan feel free to pm me. so thanks for reading and hopfully this will be all i expect and ready for comic con next year.
the shield (got a little crazy with the paint one day.)
