Again thanks for sticking with me during the process, still trying to get a hang of this

But for a first attempt this is great, I needed 5 "first attempts" to complete my first armor[emoji1], and it looks to me like you've got a pretty good hang of it already

Did a little shopping at the local hardware store to pick up some straps to harness the chest armor, 3 different color paints, and some sanding supplies.

I should have this done by the weekend
 
The pieces for the chest armor are now painted and will be put together tomorrow

I am on the fence on how it turned out

Of course I am proud that I could make something like this and it looks cool but I think this might look better in all black

Please share your input

That means a lot for this being my first time, as I look over it, it is far from perfect but I am definitely proud of my self for turning foam into what I have now, when you get started, let me know
 
Hey for your first attempt its going great...Ive not that much experience with foam either but I'm learning...I need to plan better as Ive never followed a template before or stencils lol I'm going to start doing this as of my batman build as I want it to be perfect....

I am changing the gauntlets, they are very odd looking with the rest of the suit. I will be turning soccer shin guards into the New 52 style gauntlets.

Also I am working on the shoulders/pauldrons this weekend and accents to complete the upper armor
 
Thanks for the comment and I will be adding the first pieces of mesh to the suit on the top shoulder part and the bottom bicep. Next on my list after getting these together are the new gauntlets and thigh pieces
 
The cape is finished, my cousin did an absolute wonderful job replicating what I drew on paper for her. She is sending it in the mail tomorrow
