Need help making Shinobi's armor

Post by ninja_master » Wed Jul 05, 2006 12:34 pm

Yea i need help or any tips on making the metal thigh guards ( metal, or any other material that will look good) on Hotsuma's (from Shinobi) thighs and his armor, helmet, and the shuriken holders on his arms. heres a link where you can see all the armor and stuff.

the following link has a pic for the front of the helmet, the thigh guards, the front of the body armor, and the armor on his arms

This should be helpful for making the thigh armor, and maybe part of his helmet. Good luck!
no leap in logic is too extreme... for RAGE!

I'd try using Wonderflex, you can purchase it from cosplaysupplies.com
