Eva foam for armor built.

Hi there,

I'm planning on starting my first ever armor built and I'm pretty excited to do this. However, I'm still researching a lot into this before I actually start. I decide to take on the Halo VI armor to get the hang of learning to make armor from eva foam. I was wondering what mm people use for most of their built for their armor, where people usually get their eva foam, and how much does a built usually need? I found three places that has it, Target and Amazon and Home Depot. (You can pick the black one on amazon for $23 instead of $30). So which of these would be the better buy, or which one is just better for building the armor?

Amazon- http://www.amazon.com/We-Sell-Mats-...=UTF8&qid=1365774774&sr=8-1&keywords=eva+foam
Target- http://www.target.com/p/comfort-foa...sku=11539345&gclid=CMGZ7MOWvb8CFU-Rfgod9UoANQ
Home Depot- http://www.homedepot.com/p/Best-Ste...-4-Pack-BS100-4HDT/202019834#customer_reviews

Thank you

They're all basically the same XD

All does the same job, 10mm is fine. See if you can get some thin craft foam stuff as well, works very well for little details and edge trims, stuff like that.

You also want the one with the most surface area for cheap, you can always buy more if you need it I'd start with 2 packs.
 
If you have a Harbor Freight store nearby, check them out. Same 4 panel set of foam runs about $10.

and you can probably score the 11 million razor blades you'll go through pretty cheap too :)
