Mandalorian Armor

Ok. SO. You've stumbled across my first instructable. Basically, this outlines the process I went through in order to make my own Boba Fett costume from cardboard for halloween.  For this project you will need
~ Cardboard. and lots of it (approximately 2mm thick or so, no thicker than a pizza box) 
~X-acto knife or scissors (BE CAREFUL!)
~Printed out templates found here: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/f25/updated-printable-armor-templates-various-sizes-7825/
~cereal box cardboard, (the stuff with a shiny surface)
~White spray-paint
~green spray-paint (or whatever color paint your armor shall be)
~silver model paint
~paint brushes (small)
~time (about 10 hours or so depending)
~oh and craft glue. I do not recommend hot glue, as it dries quite quickly, leaving little room for error, and will leave a gap between layers.  I recommend Beacon's 3 in 1 Advanced Craft Glue, but any craft glue should work.

Step 1: The beginning.

First, click on the provided link and select the size of armor that is right for you. (a sizing guide is provided) I recommend saving the link as a favorite as you may need to reference it later. Then, print out the pdf of the armor templates. 
Cut out the templates. Please note: the back and crotch pieces are multiple pages long, and should be assembled and taped together before you cut them out.

not bad at all... I think my girlfriend would kill me if I went as boba for Halloween though... She prefers the couples costumes and she would never wear the gold bikini in public
