Only one thing concerns me though.
I've never made armour before or anything of the sort. I know for the jems I was thinking of cutting plastic Christmas ornaments in half and such but when it comes to the armour itself...
Anyone know what one would traditionally use to make them? I'm pretty creative so I'm up for trying just about anything.
If it comes to it, I could get someone to do it for me, I suppose but that's definitely not really what I want to do at this point.
Incase you don't know, here's a picture of the general armour I'm speaking of:
I do realize, either way, it's going to be quite a project. I'm up for it; I do have quite a few months.
Or try wonderflex or abs (polystyrene) plastic. It's really up to you. People have used the Xmas ornament method with her before, so I know that will work for you. A lot of it is what works for you. But as a beginner armor maker, I think you should use foamies. Or at least use foamies as a base then cover it with abs plastic or wonderflex (which you will have to order somewhere online.
