The Martian Space Suit

Does anyone know which nike sneakers the crew wear on the martian as im making a costume are they free run flyknit 3.0 or 4.0?

Looking at stills from the promo clips and also from the film, they look like 4.0 -- the hexagonal pattern on the soles aren't those of the 3.0's

So many projects, so little time
 

Correction: Martinez is wearing 4.0, while Lewis is wearing 3.0

Just finished some more fabric:

This one is cotton spandex, so it's pretty stretchy.

The gray will serve as a template for a textured overlay I have planned.

I think I need to scale it up just a bit. The final print will be on a perf fabric if available, otherwise I'll just add the tiny black dots to simulate it.
 
I had finally some time to work on my suit yesterday. I did a proof-of-concept-test for the shin protectors and I am quite satisfied. It is made out of laser cut/engraved 3mm acrylic sheet. It is my second prop and my first self-made paintjob, so please be forgiving :) I didn't finish the silver lining because it messed up the white area too much.

no,I was curious about the fabric, but your shin protectors are looking great :), also new to the RPF, will get the hang of it soon

i'm new to costume design so i was wondering how you manage to get the texture on to the material as it will help me a lot for future builds.

BC-FX can tell you the effort that goes into producing just one helmet, the price may be prohibitive. Also there may be some licencing issues.It's looking great.
 
IIRC He's doing it for a museum commission.

Say, has anyone sourced the black dickie that is used to mate the helmet to the space suit yet? I got nothin.

BTW I spent some time on Tinkercad today, hashing together a wrist computer housing. It's a work in progress, but I wanted to put it out there for feedback. Check it out here - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1673101
