Well I thought that I had left BYOND for good a couple of months ago when my I lost all my projects during a computer upgrade gone wrong. But lately I've gotten the spirit back to start a project from scratch, so i'm back.( But we all know its really impossible to leave BYOND.)
Anyway i'm not sharing anything on said project yet, but I did want to share something I've been working on off to the side. I've recently discovered the craft of carving expanding foam into armor, and I thought Id give it a try. This is my progress on an IRL Ornstein armor set.
The helmet is almost done, Ive just got to add the diamond shape at the top and finish the mouth/teeth. The cool thing about the helmet is that the visor is actually the open mouth, so it will make me appear much taller if I ever go cosplaying with this set.
I also started on the Cuirass.
This I just started a couple days ago so there is still a lot to do. Although I do think most of the detail will be done during the painting process on the chest piece. Oh and for good measure here is a reference pic for those unfortunate enough to never have played dark souls, or made it far enough to reach this boss.

Actually one of my "huskier" friends wants to do it, but we wont start on that until I finish the ornstein costume.

Seriously though, this looks pretty neat the helmet is looking the best IMO.
