Hey all, I love costuming, but don't have many materials available to me. The only armors that I have made so far are a Master Chief and Halo Marine, but I am dying to start on a Predator suit. My main materials are cardboard and foam board, and I try to make the most of them. If anyone has any tips for me, as to where I can find good, yet cheap, materials, or what kind of design I should choose, I would be very thankful!

dude some of the stuff i have seen created just with cardboard and foam is f-ing amazing, stick with what you know to start with and oogle some of the posts. Then you can get a picture in your head of what materials you'd like to use and the just slowly work and save your way up to them. The people on this board are amazing and will help you every step of the way.
