It has begun — First Build x2 | Halo Costume and Prop Maker Community



I forgot to post the first part. The Build really has begun.
The left Calf. It’s taped together. The parts fit snug, and it fits me. Yay!

It weighs 625 grams, about 1 lb 6 oz. Is that a lot?
Filling Priming & Painting will add another couple oz. ‘ish
I know the suit will be heavy.
I’m thinking some parts need to be Stronger than others.

Does it make sense, is it worth the effort, to save 10 to 20 grams here and there?
This is 3 parts. The main part should be strong. Infill 15% the 3 that attach to it, maybe not so much.
I can save about 30 grams on the other parts using lower infill settings, say 7% or 8%. (Using PETG)
Is it worth the effort to save those extra grams?

Thanks!
