I am on a tight budget, and was wondering about going the pepakura route for my tk costume. I joined my local garrison of the 501st, in order to figure out how members typically build their armor. The leader said that it typically isn't done using pepakura and it had to be purchased. This didn't sound right to me considering all the wonderful things I've seen done with pepakura. I then went and searched the 405th for info during my search to find any evidence of a tk build using pep. I found something interesting while I was there. It seems there is some kind feud between avid halo and stormtrooper builders, which was interesting, but still didn't help me find evidence of a pep tk build. I'm wondering if it is a sense of traditionalism that is keeping people from using pepakura, or if it its actually inferior to vacu- formed armor both accuracy and cost wise?
As a struggling college student should I try to make a SA from pepakura or buy it outright?
I'm really wondering what is the most cost effective option while still maintaining a much accuracy as possible.
