Hi, I'm a new memeber and I have conventions coming up in the spring that I want to make Canderous armor for. My friend will be going as Canderous and I qill be going as Jedi Knight Quinlan Vos. I could really use your help trying to make this costume. Like I have no idea how much this is costing you. Are we getting in over our heads here? Whats the cost? the man hours? what kind of materials are you using. I would love your help, but I understand if you don't want to share your techniques! Any help would be appreciate

Hi !
I didn't come here for a long time ^^"
This project waits until I have more place to make the armor...
In fact I use cardboard, fiberglass to make it harder, stronger...
For the boots, I use bike boots, the same for the gloves.
The helmet was made by one of my friends with paper and cardboard with wallpaper glue.
I began this project 3 years ago... and I have to wait again because of the need of place to make fiberglass on cardboard (it smells a lot in a living room and it's a little bit toxic!! xD)
At this time, it cost about $200 but I have to re-build the armor.
Don't forget that it's very difficult to be the most accurate possible as this character is taken from a video game. You've to watch a lot of screenshots.
Feel free to email me if you want some other informations
Steve
PS : I hope I'll continue it very soon (I think if I do it, it will not take me a lot of time ^^')
