One more week before it has to be completed!

update 10/24
ugh. im tired.

finally got all the legs hinged and moving properly.

the waist/center portion fully collapses and is easy to get in and out of.. haven't build the suspender/harness for that yet..

i finally got the waist to free stand on my body w/o tape and holding it up...

and together with the head harness on, the head sits nicely and the weight is distributed evenly onto my back.. i can actually dance around in this.

when i squat the knee joints go with me..still need to do the shoe attachment to the feet..

also having trouble finding round foam.. i dont want the styrofoam crap at michael's.. they're $6 a pop.. i might need to make the round disks out of cardboard and make it dish in somehow..

calin · 10-24-2008, 02:58 AM

Can you even see anything out of there? It looks like the eye holes are above your head.

Oh and i'd love to see a video of you walking in this thing

. It looks kinda complicated....you should make a video once it's all done

longbowe · 10-24-2008, 04:05 AM

Yeah I think all of my350z.com would like to see a video of you dancing in this costume.

a) any costume party you go to you wont be able to fit through the door

b) how hard do you think people are gonna laugh at you if you actually make it in lol

Chebosto · 10-24-2008, 09:37 AM

1. not really for party.. this is for company costume contest.

2. head fits thru door.. legs.. sigh. do not. unless i crab it in.

3. video dancing. no. video of feet operation. maybe. :P

bbhiznors · 10-24-2008, 09:48 AM

I feel a strong sense of win building

deviljon · 10-24-2008, 10:03 AM

you can make it in a door way maybe if you angle it?

it'd be cool if you had mini-speakers that could play sound effects when you walk around!

why dont you get rid of the mid section right below the head and have the legs touch so its essentially not much wider then you
