Wooo. One point I'd never thought I'd make it. Only thing left is finish one bracer and bang out the shin guards.

Here's the album showing construction.. final mask pics near the end.

Thanks! Chest wasn't hardened, just really thick foam, like half inch (sealed in plasti-dip to paint). I just used geometry and some cut pieces for backing and a lot of hot-glue. The center piece is a resined/fiberglass detail that was glued into place. I used those long pins that split to hold it together: http://www.mindsetsonline.co.uk/images/DSCN0359.jpg

Here's shots of the raw chest last year when I originally made it:

You can see all the ribbing in there, that's where the rigidity comes from.
