Armor Crafting 06

Posted by Crimson03 [www] 

On a rainy Sunday in Hobart, Tasmania .. during the day when all the SG otakus are having fun at the final day of AFA09 ... sniff .. I decided to keep going on making my armor. Wore a jumpsuit for the whole day on a cold rainy day, but the jumpsuit was actually quite warm! I felt like a superhero in spandex!! ^w^

Been trimming my leg armor pieces to try obtain maximum flexibility! Gee .. i wonder why?!

Mouseover = load notes.

Cut/sanded/trimmed the following pieces. These pieces go onto the stomach armor and my knuckles and shoulders. Clipped the velcro coz i have to wait for 24hrs for the superglue to dry.

    I find Australia to lack anime events.
    good luck on obtaining your nendo.

        hahaha true true. Same same, I was sick on supanova and I missed out on all the others! Over here in Australia, we seem to have like those small ones, I guess it's because Australia has not really been exposed to the anime+japan culture much. I plan to cosplay as noctis! from final fantasy versus

      i tried the armor on, and its pretty warm in it when its 14-18 degrees celsius. I am not sure how to survive in malaysian/singapore weather, where its close to 30 all the time. ROFL. The bright side is, i get to lose weight while wearing it!
