So, i'm starting to work on the Grandmaster Ursine Armor from The Witcher 3
I will make the full set including swords and crossbow, that i will probably make out of foam and PVC
For the leather parts i will use EVA covered in fake leather, will use aluminum sheets for the metal armor and for the chain mail i will go for the cheap way, will use a plastic mesh i found online for about 2$ a meter
My biggest problem is the under armor parts
My issue is with the padded gambeson that he wears under the armor, I could do it in an authentic way but the problem i'm facing is the heat, where i live (South America) it gets really hot, specially at the time most conventions are happening so i need a way to make it very light and alos i'm on a very tight budget so it also needs to be cheap, i own a sewing machine and i have some experience
Anyone has any ideas about how to do it? Any suggestion for any part of the costume would be great since i don't have much experience, only did a few military style cosplays
This is the armor i'm making
