Just as the longest journey begins with a single step, my journey into the realms of prop armor-making with craft foam has begun. The heater in the front room is an amazing heat source.

I am using this guide.

And here is my magnum opus.

At a glance, it looks...well, impossible. I might give up on this at some stage, I might not. I have ideas, and I always experiment with things before making stuff.

I need to wait until Halloween is a little closer before I am able to source plastic skulls of different sizes for the use of sawing faces off, removing jaws and painting silver. At last count I'll need...ten skulls. I'm not planning on making the shoulder skull, and the ones on the toes I'll shelve as well. So, seven. Duuuuude.

The furry lower leggings are going to be fun, planning on using white fur but I'll need a little guidence on using fur...*prods the more fur-inclined*

The elements that are meant to resemble plate armor are thankfully few. I'm planning on making the shoulders from paper mache, layered and layered and layered, sanded down, and layered again. The spikes and little round bumps will be made of ploystyrene shapes you can get at craft shops.

Not sure yet what I'll make the chainmail out of.

Looking forward to making the cloak as well, hurr hurr hurr...

The helm...I have no idea about that. I don't want to think about it too much. o.o;
