Built this for my 6 y/o nephew last year for Halloween. He ended up going through a growth spurt, so I had to scrap the original peps/measurements I had taken in September and start over on Oct 10th to have it done by the 28th for a party... no rush or anything :eek
The red is the original, green is new size. No time for bondo in this timeframe![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Testing the new fit.
Putting it all together.
Can't forget the assault rifle! It's the knock-off that Toys R Us sells repainted.
And here he is in the finished costume 2 weeks after I started. He kept growing throughout the build, so I ended up jigsawing off chunks the day before his party, resulting in some oddness, like having to wear the shoulders backwards :lol
