8th November 2012: Breastplate Progress begins with the breastpiece. First versions were newspaper to get the general shape. After a few false starts I've got a corrugated card shape that has been bent and shaped.
I think I need to cut a v-shaped vent/dart from the centre to get the front curve right, but the overall shape is pretty much there.
Next step: testing with jury-rigged straps, and then looking at craft foam.
Darkiekun - 1st April 2013 Wow this looks interesting! 8D Good luck with this Can't wait to see the progress

Thanks! Originally this was planned for October 2012, but everytime I start work on it, friends invite me to do costume groups for the next cosplay event XD
I'll probably start again when the weather improves and I can work in the garden.

PandoraCaitiff - 4th September 2013 I promise nothing! I might even learn some of her lines. I can do a great bass.
