That turned out awesome, man. If I was shorter and had $500 extra laying around I would be all over that!

 

[IM Nation]

I can build one for your size bro. Just pm me if interested. Thanks

 

[joshvanrad]

Thanks for the offer. While I've got too many time and resources tied up in several projects right now, I'd have to take a raincheck. But maybe at some point I'll be asking you to commission one of these.

 

[IM Nation]

Ok buddy will wait for you ok

Great progress sir. It's always amazing how each piece added makes a costume look much better than you'd expect from that piece alone.

As for the question regarding joints, I am really curious to see the end result of IM's build, I think that's probably the most realistic version I've seen. Most of the examples I've seen online (from Disney productions etc.) seem to have a small light weight/softish looking ball sewn or attached at some of the joints to give you the grey ball look but they are not really accurate on position or size. With black clothing on underneath I didn't think it was super noticeable for my end result that I skipped them, even though I had originally intended on attaching a couple of balls like the examples I saw.

Can you post the template you used? The suit is great. I want to make one, but don't really know where to start

I love how these are coming out... What would the rough diameter be for a clear dome to fit one of these? I was wondering if my vacform could pull one big enough to fit. Anyways, great work!
