I have built medieval armor & weapons before, and am planning on a sort of steampunk take on an iron man costume.
(and then i don't mean simply a brass iron man, but completely change the concept, with more SP-worthy weaponry.)
the electronics in this one are going to be a challenge however, as i'm only experienced at fabric, blacksmithing, and the more primitive aspects of costume building at the moment...
if someone could maybe tell me how to upload pictures from your computer onto this forum, i'll post some images of my homemade, fully metal medieval armor as a referrence. (sorry, not an expert on web-related stuff either)
