I'm making a Medieval N7 Armour set from Mass Effect.
And I'm terrified.

This weekend i did a test fit of my Soldier 76 (from Overwatch)
I'm really happy with the results.
(Gloves are not correct, and my hair needs to be white. It was just a quick test)

I am working on several costumes as well, but I'm new to costume making and collecting so I'm a little slow to start off. Currently I am most in depth into two costumes:
1. Indiana Jones Raiders Costume
- currently in the process of obtaining all of the props from the map room. I have the tape measure, notebook, bag (with custom leather strap), Holster (guns in the mail) made of doubled up vinyl fake leather, and I'm working on the brush. The Ra Headpiece is coming later, as is the whip (I know, the whip is kind of a vital Indy piece but they are not cheap!)
- all of these pieces are in "new" condition, but that's no fun so I plan to start weathering it all fairly soon
2. Centurions: Power Xtreme Jake Rockwell
- currently have a first iteration of the helmet and a chest armor I'm pretty happy with. It's all foam construction so I'm going to have to engineer a way to mount the accessories to the "exo-frame"
I have only one costume in a "completed" stage (though who are we kidding, their is always a way to improve!)
- Marty McFly from 1985 - this is my go-to for most events. It's easy and comfortable!
In the imagination stages:
- Owen Grady being chased by an inflatable T-rex and velociraptor (dog's costume)
- Blade Runner - probably Rutger Hauer's Roy Batty since I am a 6'3" blonde guy... work with what I got
- Allen Grant is fairly easy, and as it turns out, I have 90% of the costume in my closet as of yesterday

That looks impressive and ambitious! I hope it goes well.

I am working on fitting a mk43 iron man suit, this is a fiberglass one from TWISTED STUDIOS. The fit is awkward and apart from the thighs, I can just about fit in it and I am tall and skinny, 6ft tall, 28 to 30 waist and 38 to 40 chest, my head circumference is 56cm so small and the helmet is a tight fit. The shins seem a little too long unless I put on some high heels in the fiberglass shoes....really not sure what to do at the moment but that's my project for now

Not a bad ide ;-) But Three years back, at my first time at DragonCon, TSA (allready in Europé) had a "Special US security detatchment" and they made a very very big fuss about my Star trek uniform! Dont know how they will handel these ;-)

Kind of fun in retrospect, but very Kafka-esque right there and then. When they asked me what it was, I said ..."its a star trek uniform" and they Went "is that a military uniform......Sir" and then I had to stand i the Square of shame for about 45 minutes while they Went through everuthing I had. The fun part, I was allso Cosplaying Dr Kreiger from Archer, and I had an "ISIS" personal card among my patpers, they either missed that, or did not bother.
