My brother continually helps me out when I make my costumes, and we got talking about ones for him. I knew that this might just be a long-winded project, but Scott has always wanted to do a Master Chief costume. Master Chief, coming from the Xbox game HALO, is the main protagonist of the HALO universe and is a very widely-recognizable character. Being a very rounded character, I wanted to go with <a href="http://cosplaysupplies.com/wonderflex/wongerflexfaq.html">Wonderflex</a>, but Scott, who was paying for the whole project, didn't want to spend that much money on it, so we've decided to make the start with <a href="http://www.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=95725">foam insulation</a> and <a href="http://www.paper-wings.org/tutorials/armor/fiberglass.html">fiberglass</a>.<br /><br />When this thing comes down to complicated shapes, I think this one takes the cake. I've never made a costume with curved pieces all over his body, so I have yet to figure out exactly how I'm going to do this with foam and fiberglass, but I am willing to try and give it a shot. Stacking them up and making them much like Jack Doud's <a href="http://www.angelfire.com/pa5/jdoud2/boopack.html">J-Pak</a> is going to take some time, but Scott didn't want to spend close to $1,000 on this costume, so we're going with a cheaper way of doing it, at least for now. If Scott decides that this is NOT the way to go, when we will then work with Wonderflex.<br /><br />Since the Master Chief costume is still in the planning stages, I will be putting this current space on hold for when I need it later.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/230688414113494881-250115011203775087?l=chiefcos.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Miraihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04899840847882761084noreply@blogger.com
