    Great job to a fellow Zammer. I am currently working on mine. I have almost all the greeblies. I just the need some armor pieces and the leather. After all that is collected, I can really get into making it.

    Anyway, enough about how my costume is going, your's looks great. I hope mine comes out that good. It's a hard costume. Congrats to your boyfriend too for helping you.

    Thanks for posting all those pics! It's interesting to see how you put together your Zam! ( Dyeing/Painting all those squares for the skirt is a pain in the butt... isn't it! )

    On your pants - Did you sew the "saddle" pieces on like an applique or were they separate pieces?

    Absolutely yes !! I've cursed myself many times to have chosen this suit... And about my pants...are separate pieces.

    Wow, that is totally wicked. It inspires me. I can't wait for my Zam bits to arrive so I can finish it and get it ready for a big event coming in a couple of months.

    You look fabulous!

    Wow. That looks great!

    How long did it take you to cut/dye/stitch each of the squares for the skirt, if you don't mind me asking?

    Hi My boy molded the helmet using plastilina on a mannequin head that was in my size. Then he made 3 stamps ( helmet and ears ) in chalk and later the original parts in fiberglass. With the same process I made the rectangular circuits on the ears and the back.
    The skirt? 3 days to draw and cut the squares, 2 days for the coloration and 1 day to assemble

    UPDATE: with finding the Prada boots, I had the motivation to mold a new pair of shin armors in latex: more flexibility, more agility,more comfy and a little more accuracy







    A big thanks to Matthew " Launchpad" for the boots
