what will my first buy be

[aidenmoore]

I have about £200 to start me off on this magical mystical adventure haha
just wondering from people's past experience what the best thing to start of with was. I'm wanting to head down the P1 or AVP1 route so maybe the mask or bio? i dunno...

HELP

Ah thats a good question, i always wondered whats the best to start with suit or mask so i could make thing proportioned and not look like a bobble head. Im guessing if its between mask and bio the mask would be best option so you can create a bio that fits.

i bought my skin first. the seahunter skin. Elder-One sells them. i think there $500 or 550. awsome skin

you can always start with the head and work you way down with that thats what did...
cheers

I would be quite happy to make my own skin the Mr I. way
so would it be better to do the armor first? i got the templates of one of the threads or start with a mask and paint it up so i know which direction to go in

cheers for the quick responses

You should do the skin before you do the armor. That way, you can make sure the various armor pieces will fit over the muscle suit. That's important especially for the chest/back pieces, where they should fit more closely.

I like to start my costumes by doing the mask so I know what the expressive character of the costume will look like, but that's just my own creative process.

I started with the mask and then doing the suit while working on most of the armor.
