Greetings, right now this is still mostly theory crafting. After going to several conventions with my friend having mismatched costumes, I've become adamant about doing a pair that we could show off together for a group cosplay. He has locked himself down into wanting to make a Green Goblin costume and after much debate I've landed on doctor octopus as my costume of choice (followed closely by scorpion)
I have a rough idea right now of how I want to go about crafting the tentacles, but as with anything I need to start with a solid base. I'm having a little trouble narrowing down a good backpack/backplate that could be use to support the whole system. As it sits I'm still in the research stages and would love any advice you wonderful people have to offer. The search function has been less than helpful so far, but I could just be looking in the wrong places.
My current thought is doing something more akin to the ultimate spiderman tv series doc ock. I'm very much intrigued by the thought of a large glowing chest armor base. After landing on a good base I'll likely play the rest by ear in terms of how I want it laid out. Right now I just want to use that chest system.
