Please use something besides cardboard, a nice non cardboard prop can be worth some good money

i know that using cardboard takes away from detail, but my free time clock is rather small so using cardboard is the quickest way to do it, and over time i should learn how to put much more detail into the props.

If your time clock is short on making these I recommend doing other simpler projects until you have more time. This Mass Effect armor its VERY simple to make only only requires like $30 worth of foam.

My sister was able to make 2 of these in about a week.

that's cool, i'm not into Mass Effect though, one of the other reasons i make my stuff from cardboard is because the cardboard is free, over all, it doesn't take much time to make a weapon from cardboard.

I graduated from high school on June-11-2011. I'm 19 right now. I'm turning 20 in December. I like playing video games, and board games. I like reading Sci-Fi, and World War II novels, and what not.

Besides being cardboard. You did a really good job on them :-)

When I turned on the volume I was expecting some little kid. I'm glad it wasn't it.

That's pretty cool. Good work.

Well you're not a smart 17 year old that's one thing for sure.
Never give out your age to the internet.


I'm 16. The more you know.

Now, if I had given out my name, that would be a different story.
