Space marines are one o the most challenging costumes as far as I am concerned, due to their odd proportions. Considering this is foam, and you are making it wearable, I think you did an amazing job. Really don't have any comments other than proportions. For example, the chest is still a little small... The eagle emblem is squished a little horizontally... But that's just nitpicking. Absolutely stellar job!
 
been doing some overhauling.

added more pouches, built a krak grenade and added 4" of bulk to the chest armor.

might tear open the legs and try something wednesday, not sure yet.

how'd you get the eye pieces that reflective red color and still keep them transparent for you to see through? (i need lenses like that for my ranger)
 
Guilliman would be proud.
I cant get over how glorious that bolter is, its distractingly awesome. The whole suit looks really good together. I bet you can't wait to wander around in public with that boy on.
 
I am a relative noob when it comes to all this costuming stuff, but I have to say, your costume is AMAZING.

You said that you used TB-20 foam and that it was 1/4" thick (i was indeed reading everything) but i am curious as to how you made it all curve and keep shape. also, where could one acquire this sort of foam, because i am looking into building a set of armor.
