Day 4: (Gauntlet - Practice)

Ok. So I shared my blog on facebook today and I got feedback that it was a little unclear of what I was working on. So here is an official picture of the armor I am going to make (hopefully without cuts, scraps or bruises). :P

Let me just say it is a MILLION times harder than it looks... I did a dry run today to get an idea of how it was to work with foam, a heatgun, etc. It is RIDICULOUSLY hard. I probably don't have the right tools.... oops. Oh well. I'll make it work! :)

Here's a pic of my dry run....

Yeah... it stinks.... Haha!
It was a good test run. I REALLY hope it's better next time.

I didn't put the straps/velcro on the arm on this run because I haven't bought extras but they will be there next time (if it turns out better than this one that is).

Well there it is. The start of the start. (It needs to start somewhere).
We'll see if some youTube videos can save this project. :P

P.S. I have absolutely no experience working with foam or these tools so this is my first time! Luckily, I'm a fast learner. :) Wish me luck!
