Of all the Tron costumes I’ve seen, this is unquestionably the best and most authentic! I just LOVE how instead of going for the blue lines (which could have been tacky and distracting), you decided to go with the original black lines! Although the part that really sells the outfit to me is the second to none attention to detail. From what I can tell, it is 94% screen accurate (all it needs are some tweaks with the boots, the older helmet, and wearing the belt up higher). From your helmet video, you said you’re thinking about modding the original helmet to match Tron’s, so are you planning to do a Tron costume? I think you look just like Bruce Boxleitner!
End of Line.
 
Thank you The Searcher! I appreciate you liking my work, and my intent behind it. I'm actually interested in doing all the costumes for the main characters over time. I want to do Yori's costume next actually. Hoping for a cast cosplay some day.
 
The Searcher, it's hard to say how many characters one could end up with. It's so much work - I'll just approach them one at a time and see.
