Project Arbiter: Making the Armor

[Trooper_trent]

My brother (RPF Member BlueRealm) was contracted to build a suit of armor for a WWII sci-fi short film called Project Arbiter. He created the suit completely from scratch based on the concept drawings. Enjoy!

Now that looks like an awesome costume eventhough I have no idea what its fron

it's basically going to be a 20 minute short film as a proof of concept by the writer and director to pitch for a full length film. Tons of info on the site.

Absolutely love the armor and the idea. One slight criticism - he seems well protected from head to... knees. Below that seems to be just gaiters and combat boots. Which could be a liability.

yeah, he had no say in the design, only the execution. On a side note, I think the gaiters are actually hard plastic cast parts, the same as the armor, they just look like leather.
