So I have been skipping the threads that say garbage can armor for a month now. I was looking at another thread and it linked me to a thread about the garbage can armor. To my suprise, it looked semi interesting, so I thought, for 6 dollars I will give it a try for fun. I couldnt find the same can, but I found one that was similar at Target. I also got a small can for the shoulder armor. Anyway, WOW! I have a degree in sculpture and painting, so that helps. But a few cuts, and minimal work with a heat gun (Except the back plate was a bit of a challenge) and bam:
If anything I take it as great practice, and it encourages me to try more scratchbuilt ideas. Still have some cleaning up to do with the armor, but I thought I would try some gauntlets too! Heres where Im at so far:
