Is anyone making a Replica Green Lantern Costume?

[SupermanLegends]

Just wanted to know if anyone is making an accurate one?

It looks really hard.
Any tips on where to start.
I want it to be screen accurate as possible

So far I have seen only one. Darth Chiro made it, lights up and everything.

I believe The Heroes Locker are planning on releasing one soon. I've seen the pattern. Its top quality.

how about this suit?

Maybe adding some urethane on to some parts?

I have also just realized that the suit is an Armor muscle suit (the ones on ebay)

That is interesting. Im not feeling the fake ab part

I think if the abs were not there and the sleeves were tighter around the wrist.
It would be amazing.



but it is nice

No not from ebay, this was my own sculpt that I did for Dr.Manhattan and and snake eyes. Same with the legs, my own muscular leg sculpt. I also used this for a deadpool suit last yr

I used the armor as a base and then cut in the muscle fibers based off the entertainment weekly picture. The issue with the sleeves can be resolved by cutting the inner arm seam out and glueing it to the wearer, or padding it out with foam. The problem was that , that pic was from halloween night, at my shop where i just finished painting it to go out so having it "done" (at least something to put on) to wear was as good as we got with the time we had.

This was done last October with only one pic for reference,The next version will be much better, since there is now lots of good reference shots and I should have time to assemble it properly this time.
