yeah i want to replace my eyes, i'm having trouble deciding between painted red/orange punched steel mesh, or reflective red mirrored visor cut up from a motor cyle helmet, but i cannot find one with the red polarized effect (like cyclops' shades from the xmen movies)

i dunno from what i gather from the renders of the game it looks more like the artist was trying to portray a light, kinda like, an orange version of nightvision.
I've done some gaming concept art over the years lol.. thats just what i get from the renders.
you could try EL sheets or wire too, lots of ways to get that effects. LEDs are cheap though, just scuff the edges of the lens a bit so it lights up thicker.

How wide are the belt buckles you used? I found the silver ones in 1-1/4" wide.

Check out A New Hope Darth Vader lenses, they were red. That's my plan.

You could go for what you feel is the best fit for the costume, rather than copy me directly on it
i'm not sure what size i used, honestly, but i just picked some buckles that looked right to me, i didn't research them specifically.
so i doubt you'll go wrong so long as you follow your own aesthetic choices

I made myself some templates and traced them out onto the foam, then used an x-acto blade and cut them out. Then I used 230 grit sandpaper to sand the edges and to round them out.

I've been wanting to do one of these for as long as the game has been out, but I wonder if it is a good idea to use a regular jacket as a template for the duster or should I hire someone else to do the sewing? I ask this because I have no previous experience at sewing and I have no idea were to begin in the sewing process (not mention that I live in the middle of nowhere and that my resources are limited).

The Duster is beyond easy to make.
