I'll let you know! I might even be selling complete hexagon suits.
So I've been experimenting with just how far I can take the cuts on the EL tape.
Here you can see I've cut quite a jagged edge and split the tape down the middle. I also punched a small hole in it. Still illuminates bright and consistent!
It's a split back. Hence my surprise when I was able to cut right down the split and still have solid illumination!

1st attempt and some Tron Gloves:
Still need to add some detail to the backs of the gloves. I may go with a different design all together.
I finally finished my costume! I am almost done with my wife's Quorra costume. I'll post pics of those when I am done. Meanwhile, here are some.

I found the camera work was tricky, but we got a few that at least you can get the idea of. I used a wetsuit for the armor and a zentai suit for the under suit. I did not use lightsheet but rather reflective tape (though I tried a few experiments with lightsheet). Reflective tape was a lot easier to work with and if it is even moderately dark, you have a glow effect anyway. It will be great in clubs.
I used dressage gloves (leather) and trimmed them. These were great. I used a Tron Legacy toy flying disc I got on eBay. It is a great disc and you can throw it but I had to paint the back. I also used blue LEDs in the back mount. I used modified rollerblade kneepads and long boots. Finally, I took the suggestion and used the adult GI Joe helmet, painted it black and added striping. It didn't turn out bad at all. Let me know what you think. Thanks, andy
