Yea. I could only last 2 hours at a time with like atleast an hour break in between. I did however have to last about 6 hours atone time for the masquerade, but we found a way for me to sit down. I do not recommend you build a suit this way. It was just my first cosplay that I made and didn't really know the best way to do it.

What is a good way to make a suit?
what matirials would you need?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Um I dont think the way I made it is the best way to do it. It was very heavy and hard to move about.

Really? It doesn't look to heavy but ill take your word for it.
There were people taking foam sheets that were plain white and were cutting them to shape then painting them but it made the suit bend and distort making it look weird. But no one ever says anything about what they used for the under-suit to hold it together.

yea the gun was like 5 pounds and the chest was around 12 pounds. Under it all I wore a back unitard and sewed velcro to it for the pieces to stick to

Talk about some heavy parts but I can understand a 5 pound gun but 12 pounds for the chest plate is heavy. Velcro is a great idea! Most people glue the parts on making it last for less of a time than if they did it the Velcro way.But the gun is one part that you have to use multiple parts so its going to be heavy anyhow. (people always complain about it too)

Very cool! Only thing I see is that her helmet/chest and body armor is a darker gray. Still though, this looks very nice!

thanks! and yea I do agree.. but we were cutting it close as it was so couldnt change it. Finished the night before the con

XD I see; well, from playing MP1, I think the helmet was black, and so was the chestplate. The stomach armor and the inner leg armor was a dark gray.

That's the concept art, but I mean in the final game...have you not played Metroid Prime?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm terribly sorry for butting into this conversation 
I can't really imagine the helmet and chest black...do you have a different (PAL?) version of the game?
Oh, great job on the cosplay though. First time I've seen a Phazon suit.

hehe don't be sorry it's good to have a different persons opinion

I have the Metroid Prime Trilogy disk...I distinctly remember the helmet being black, and I'm pretty sure about the chest...I'm not positive, but, I guess I could look up a LP of the game...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh yeah I have Trilogy too. I think I beat Prime 1 on it twice. Her helmet should be silver, since if it were black, that would be like the Varia Suit's helmet being orange.

Hmm...I'll have to play through that again...that's going to bug me...
