      I just found your channel. Just in time because I wanted to start making a Halo spartan cosplay. Sadly I'm looking for more of a Halo Reach armor look, but I'm still watching your videos. I've learned so much and will definitely be using eva foam for my build. I am tempted to pick up your pdf file to try this for a first attempt.

    Hi Andrew! I watched a lot of your videos a few years ago but I never did anything about it. You showed up in my recommended again because of Halo Infinite and I found this. I have a question for you. Have you ever, and would you recommend applying fiberglass over this suit to make it more durable and shaped? I think that would give it a really cool effect but I've never done anything like this and I'd like to get an expert opinion.

    • @npc6817
      @npc6817 3 года назад

      No need to do any alterations, unless you have a very large breast size it will just cover them fine, chest armor is usually unisex.
      If you're actually trying to get that boob armor effect rather than being worried about a good fit then you should modify the chestplate instead, just bend it over your knee to give it a rounder shape and maybe add some foam spacers on the underside so that it won't sit as flush with the base chest armor.
