(pic 1)ģ) it was just a bit too bright pink for me, so i took it to the basement and sprayed it down with some purple to mute the color a bit. I removed all the extra stuff, like the buckles, buttons, and sleeves.Ģ) Then, I sewed the jacket closed so that it was now a dress. cut out those sections(pic 10, 11)ġ) we got lucky and found a pink rain jacket at a thrift store. You can use either craft foam or EVA foam, depending how thick you want it to be. Basically anything that you want elevated. Glue in place once completed.ġ0) From there, grab your paper templates and draw in your extra details, such as extra plating, pectoral pieces, etc. I just took some extra foam, placed it in the vacant gap where the shoulder strap would be, mark it, and then cut it. (pic 10)ġ0) now get more foam and put it into the shoulder sections. Cut it out with a template and glue in a solid piece. i needed to replace that circle with one solid piece of foam. Since i glued her chest armor together from three pieces, the pieces all conjoin right in the center. Now glue them together.(pic 9 )ĩ) Honey lemon has a circle in the center of her armor, where the bottom of her sternum is. (pic 8)Ĩ) Just as you overlapped the side pieces, overlap the two back pieces till they are nice and contoured to the shape of your body. It will look nicer if the armor is more contoured to your body. The reason for this is that your back is not perfectly flat. From there, cut the back piece in half where the crease is. Glue your plastic buckles onto both sides and clip them in. Mark off the excess foam and cut them off. Overlap the side flaps of the chest over the side flaps of the back piece. The reason you added an extra inch to the width is so that you can make the fitting flush.
(pic 5) once you have all the left and right breast plates, and you have the abdomen cover, glue all three pieces together.Ħ) From there, press the chest AND back foam pieces onto the person. Push and pull the EVA foam on the bowl to get the foam to the curve you want it. From there, grab a bowl and use it as a round object to place the warm EVA on. left, right, and abdomen.ĥ) In order to make the curves for the breast plate, heat the foam with a heating gun. From there, i started cutting out the segments of Honey Lemon's armor. (pic 3)Ĥ) Cut these out from the EVA foam (pic 4). When you unfold it, you should have the front piece (pic 2) *this pics is not the actual chest plate, but the concept is the same.ģ) do the same process for the back. From there, cut out that measured rectangle out of the scratch paper.Ģ) fold it in half, draw in your template and then start cutting out the general shape from the folded paper (pic 1). 1)For the chest, take your tape measure and measure from the shoulder to the bottom of your rib cage.
