Buddies coerced me into doing "the mountain" from Game of Thrones for a group costume thing for next year's Megacon. Starting early (thank god) with this, but I decided to do the version at the very end with his fight w/ the Viper. This version has most of his armor but not all of it, so I'm not too concerned.
The biggest hurdles in my mind for this are:
- Boots (I need a size 15 minimum)
- Chain mail - it's expensive
- Sewn portions - Need a patient seamstress and one that is actually local
I still need to gather decent, larger reference pics though. I have a good idea of how to go about it. The majority of the armor is a bunch of plates, thatched together at the corners. The back actually is really more complicated IMO than the front.
I think the boots are some-what custom made though...
I'd appreciate any input!
Thanks...
