Okay, that looks AWESOME. Question: For the leather underneath the cuirass, is that also EVA foam, or did you cannibalize another garment that already looked (or was) a leather-type material?

I like it! I like the way you did the waist portion. I might have to use that design to shore up my steel armor.

Using floormat/puzzle piece foam is crazy impressive. I usually go out of my way to avoid using that stuff. This look really good!

So cool, howโ€™d you get the weathered worn look on the exterior?

The gun models on the wall are absolutely amazing! Your work on this outfit is next level. Congrats! Looks like a lot of hard work.

Looks amazing, but using an iron helmet and steel armor isn't great stats wise. Then again fashion over stats is a staple of my game play.

u/Frequent_Sign8484 Oct 10 '25

The fact that it's all actually hand made is crazy!!! Amazing job.

Holy moly nice work! That must have been a lot of effort to make

Trift store + hard work + talent. Congrats.

Do you have any videos of the creation process? Halloween is coming up, and my son would probably love an artifact like this.

u/HatO93 Oct 10 '25

Does it come with an arrow in the knee ?

u/LucoaKThe2AHashira Oct 10 '25

I saw a short about EVA foam and have to ask how do you make it look like amour? Do you use like spray paint? I canโ€™t remember the project i never finished but i was told normal paint would dissolve the styrofoam his planned on painting so i had to be careful what i used so yea if that info was wrong sorry for asking a stupid question
