Last night while watching a Robert Downy Jr double feature of Sherlock Holmes and the Avengers
I drew out final templates for the shield front
Now that I have set a size for the front, I'm going to start making the quick prototypes for the back and shoulders
This whole armor is my own concept so It's taking me a bit more time to make my own templates, because I want it to be "perfect"
After all the templates are done for the shield I will be moving on to the gauntlets, shin guards, and belt
Starting Saturday @ 2 I will be off work until Wednesday and plan on working on this around the clock
I've also started posting some of my progress on Twitter
I'm new to twitter so I don't have any followers to see my work!
so if you have twitter follow me @CaptHalloween
and ill be sure to post a lot of in progress pictures

I love mash-ups. I'm trying to decide on what I want to do. Either Iron Lantern or an Iron man Rocketeer combo.

This thread is ridiculous.... ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS lol
you guys are making me want to make a Green Ranger Armor suit now
Green Ranger was always one of my favs lol
ohh BTW Sean, I noticed you mentioned the gym.
I'm a personal trainer so if you ever want advice/tips or a program review, let me know man. I'd love to help out a fellow cosplayer. I don't post much, mostly because i've been sorta sitting back, reading and learning from you guys cause I'm a total noob at this stuff. I mean I don't have much expertise in the areas of cosplaying (yet I hope) but I do have knowledge in fitness and training so if you or anyone here wants some help inbox me your split or where you're at and I'll be more than happy to help you out.
cheers and good luck on the build and finding Saba. I'm thinking I might want to seriously try my hand at Green Ranger Armor lol.

Ever since I discovered cosplay I've wanted to make a Rocketeer costume and Iron Man armor. This thread inspired me combine them.

Honestly I think that's an awesome idea. I think The Rocketeer helmet was probably the first ever Helmet/mask, next to Batman, that I ever made as a kid... I remember being in like Grade 1 and putting on my brown leather jacket, taping construction paper and tubs to my backpack and making a paper mache rocketeer helmet... I thought I was so bad ass LOL actually come to think of it most of my show and tells were costumes.... lol
Yup. The rocketeer and the shredder were my first costumes ever when I was a kid, apart from store bought batman and spiderman kids costumes. Fun times with paper mache with the old man!

Thanks for the support and I may take you up on that advice offer. A have a friend of my families who is a very good trainer and just happens to train at my gym lol, she helps me out a lot and gives me workout routines and whatnot
I was going to the gym 4 days a week since April until Christmas hit and was doing too much running around. Come the new year Im back at it

Nice!
Well keep at it brother. I'll be honest with you, the biggest component of health is eating habits and making sure your macros are on point. Obviously you're not trying to be a body builder so you can be a bit looser with your macros (unless you are in which case buying a food scale is a great help).
Recently I've found that using my fitness background has been the biggest component of me doing some of my cosplays lol. I used to be a big guy but after i started training, studying and became a PT a friend of mine asked me to be Colossus for an X-Men group for Fan Expo which I did and recently I did a bulk session over the summer/fall to get read for Bane lol.
Now I need to cut again mostly for the newer projects I want to work on.
Can't wait to see what else you've got coming up this suit. It's gonna be awesome!

Thankfully I'm not that overweight. I just have a bit of a gut and love handles
Id love to loose them, maybe gain a bit of muscle so I can pull off some other costumes, Like Wolverine or Dovahkiin from Skyrim
My other costumes have been very basic (Han Solo, Castiel from Supernatural and Jayne Cobb from Firefly) All have clothes to cover lol
But White Ranger spandex suit is intimidating lol

Dunno if you saw my Sub-Zero thread in costume showcase but I was a MUCH bigger guy until recently and dropped it all but I gotta say even now with a much fitter physique I'm shying away from spandex lol I've been sticking to Neoprene or looser fitting things as I'm not confident enough to don the spandex yet....
Its the only thing that holds me back from putting together a TASM or Green Ranger suit...
