Make sure you attach the elastic like a backpack, with elastic over your shoulder as well as hugging you back so it doesn't slip off while wearing it. Fitting is a difficult process, most parts won't fit your hand perfectly, this is because you need to fit each piece for where it needs to go on your hand. Sew your pieces together at both of your side edges, then cut a slit of about 5-7 inches down what will be the back of your cape, and sew the edges of your slit inward to create a finished look. I start with a base coat of black paint on most of the armor pieces, then dry brush a silver all over the black except this time it was a much stronger dry brush to the point of it barely even being dry brushing.

Thread it through three more holes and you have these "Web Rope" "bridges" you can hang things off of which I'll go into in the next step. Keep an eye on filament make sure it doesn't run out, Make sure the print doesn't fail mid way (If there are small gaps they won't matter and I'll explain why in a second), and finally make sure to keep an eye as each part is printing. Tape all of your pattern pieces together with masking tape, using the row and column guides at the bottom of each page, then cut out all of your pattern pieces. I just thread one end through a hole I made in the fabric with a screwdriver and then tied a knot on the other end so the fabric wouldn't go all the way through.I found that if you wrinkle the fabric by scrunching it up makes the silver stick to the raised edges of the fabric more and brings more attention to those details making the armor look more imperfect.

If you want to speed up the heat fitting process you can use a blow torch but it's much more dangerous and may leave bubbles in your print. Finally for Cornifer's map I mentioned it briefly that I tied a rope around the map, this rope tied around the map is what we'll use to secure the map to the belt.

And I recommend doing this even if your print came out flawless because of how simple it is to apply extra texture.It worked and left me with two pieces and this uneven texture on the foam (Perfect for some battered armor). This should be fairly obvious for people who know already about 3D printers but I feel I should still mention it. To paint the paper is rather simple just a couple coats of watered down yellow's and browns across the page to make it look old. Instead of sewing your collar closed, hand sew a button to the area where the bottom edge of the collar meets the top edge of the slit you created in your cape, as well as the top corner of your collar on the same side. The little bit of silver will paint over the washes and make it look like those edges are worn from being in contact the most.

Choose “half” and “mini” (though we will be changing the length, so it doesn’t really matter) from the options in the Circle Skirt App, along with your neck measurements. Next, adhere your pattern pieces to your foam sheets using either your masking tape or craft bond spray adhesive .Now for the Mantis claw I found the best way to get this attached to the belt was to drill a Very Small hole in the bottom of the claw. Since the armour is so thick the heat didn't reach the front and I could leave an indent in the shape of my leg on the armor. This can be a bit difficult, but you can feel to make sure you have only your broadcloth and no mesh by rubbing your fingers together. Once you have your design figured out, carve out pieces of your foam along your crack designs – do not go so far with your box cutter that you hit your cardboard.

Take the armor for a test with the Velcro and "Web Rope" straps, walk/run around to make sure it works. To make it look worn and as if it's gone through battle I tested a few treatment options on some strips of fur. Ok now for the hard part, here is the trick I recommend since the glue will travel through the seams of either the morph suit or your gloves I recommend wearing a pair of cheap gardening gloves underneath the gloves you are gluing each piece too. To turn a bandage roll into "Web Rope" you first need to stretch out the roll until the bandage is about to tear. You'll find multiple promotions on item that you desired happening daily, so you won't miss out on getting the savings.If you have a hard time visualising this, look at painted furniture, you will see that the corners or the edges may be a bit lighter or show the original material underneath. However I tried a new method of putting black watered down paint into a spray bottle and spraying it all over the chestplate. Once the belt is painted (or not) it is time to add these little ropes bridges (using the "Web Rope").
