This is so you don't have to tie the actual armor onto the costume when putting it on as well as adding more general detail.

There's no real trick to this just cut a line and mark with silver sharpie how much more you need to cut.To make it look worn and as if it's gone through battle I tested a few treatment options on some strips of fur. Once you have the chestplate shaped to your body you should reinforce all weak points on the back with as much hot glue as possible (Weak points include Corners, Tips, Edges, and Seams). For your neck line, you will need to fold your edge in and sew it down, leaving a generous “channel” space for your ribbon to fit through it.

This armor piece gets it's own step because it one of the last pieces I made so it has some variation in methods as I wanted to test something new. The next alteration that you can make is gluing some "Web Rope" in strips around the arms where the arm armor goes.This should be fairly obvious for people who know already about 3D printers but I feel I should still mention it. This part is very different to the 3D printed armor we've done so far as it allows a degree of flexibility when wearing the second style of chestplate.

This makes it so if you stretch and your back moves the Velcro won't snap immediately allowing for more flexibility when the elastic stretches. The ratings/reviews displayed here may not be representative of every listing on this page, or of every review for these listings. I covered the foam in some leather like fabric and left extra fabric to cover my back (If you can wrap it around your waist and there is a little gap on your back that's the perfect amount of material) Then just hot glue the fabric to the foam.Take the armor for a test with the Velcro and "Web Rope" straps, walk/run around to make sure it works. This also make's it one of the pricier parts since it requires a lot of filament, however I'm cheap so of course I found a way around this.
