THERMALS!!!


That's EXACTLY what we need!!!


Oh, I gots to go shopping tonight.

This is looking awesome so far!

The thermals look perfect. I expect to be making major strides on this by the weekend.

The top half is coming together in a hurry.



The awesome thermals idea, THANKS Biggie!



Velcro, the secret to all the plate attachments.



I've got to find/make some suspenders to get the pants done. The left arm is falling behind because I had to remake those plates. We'll have a full suit of armor soon...then I have to 'ghostify' it.

I've attached the bottom piece of the hauberk 'underneath' the breastplate since the pics, goes down to about mid/thigh.

Yay! the top is done!

King Hamlet's Ghost is finally finished.



Getting out the webber...









I'm considering pulling out my OTHER webber (the drill attachment) just before showtime as well. It's webs are finer, and more sheet-like, but less likely to take the abuse these ones are going to get in the next few days.

I only had my crappy point and shoot, will get better pics at the show on Thursday. Turns out the ones doing the play run a massive haunted house ("The Harry Potter house", one of the triangle of major stops, along with "The Mafia House" and "The Tiki House" (me). They literally have ALL the teachers/rooms/etc at whatever the school was called, sorry.) up in the rich neighborhood, and had to supply all costumes but mine...

Hamlet final showing.

8 showings, and the costume has been hammered.

A little compare/contrast for you, here is what happens when you use a web SPINNER as opposed to a web SHOOTER (above).




I wanted to spray a TON more, but Kyle was not liking the feel of these.
"they feel like webs." "that's kind of the point."


Notice all the terra cotta spotches...that's areas that have chipped thanks to various things like RUNNING IT OVER WITH A WHEELBARROW.





I have a lot more pics, but was shooting in RAW and haven't had time to edit them into a usable format.

very cool!

Cool end result!
