Hey everyone,

New member here. I am totally new to cosplay and I have some super noob questions.

I want to go ahead and start collecting all of my materials to make my master chief suit. I am going to 3D print the helmet and make the rest out of EVA foam.
The noob questions are as follows:
- What filament is recommended for the helmet? (I was thinking of using PLA+)
- What paint should I go with aside from the basic primer?
- What thickness of EVA foam should I use to make the suit look as realistic as possible? Also what brands are good?

Thank you! Any additional tips and tricks would be appreciated!
