Captain America : First Avenger Suit

What is the progress on this uniform?!? It was looking great and now nothing for almost 2 months... The suspense... is... killing me...
 
I guess still no updates on this. It looks like a great start.

I actually did finish the costume but I wasn't 100% happy with it and didn't get a ton of photo's. There's been a few people though that have been interested in seeing the finished product so it's probably about time I put up the few pictures I do have.

Also for anyone interested here's a link to the model I created for the helmet, though I'm sure there's some better ones out there I've seen a few good ones.

Dude, I think that this turned out great!

Thanks! It was a big hit when I wore it to work. Hopefully at some point I can revisit it.

My big issues were that the color of the gloves where they connected to the gauntlet didn't match, and the same thing on the boots. I ran out of time on the pants, so I had to just kind of hack them together with a pair of blue pants and a glue gun. And the shield/helmet, again ran out of time so I didn't have time to properly sand/fill/smooth it.
 
I think it looks fantastic Dancin_Fool, besides, who doesn't love a little battle damage? It was purely intentional :D.
 
your pretty damn good at sewing

Thanks! It was my first sewing project. I had never sewn anything before that. It was quite the learning experience. Youtube videos were a valuable resource.

Hahah, thanks man. I totally played it off as battle damage to everyone.

GREAT work! :cool:thumbsup

I'm working on modifying a Capt America store-bought costume for Mikey this year. It won't be ANYWHERE near as cool as your custom-built one! That sewing work on the top is really really good. I can't believe that's your FIRST sewing project! :eek
 
Did you have a pattern for the sewing or did you free hand the pieces? I really want to do this costume but not having luck on research for the sewing portion.
