Description
After juggling real life stuff with process experimentation, I've almost got the armor complete and ready for a second test fit. Once I decided to switch from Worbla to 3mm EVA foam for the remaining armor parts, I had a totally new material to experiment with from shaping to painting. I haven't fully explored the EVA foam yet, but this is what I've got so far with less than three weeks to debut day.

Not too shabby, although I still need a lot of work refining the equipping system. I may try to fashion a universal harness to wear, as my next three projects are all armor-heavy projects. All of those projects would benefit from a uniform mounting system to speed production.

(Unfortunately, some unscrupulous commissioned costume builders have been stealing photos from other individuals and using it to fool their clients into thinking they are at a certain point in building their costume, possible stalling for time while an overseas third-party actually makes the costume for much less than the price charged by the scammers. It is unfortunate that this is happening, and that I need to watermark and post this usage prohibition).
