SO! What's new? I am slowly working on making GoGo Tomago from Big Hero 6!
I started with black spandex, but the really thick, 4-way stretch kind.
I plan to foamsmith some armor, and I decided that the best way to proceed is to make the sleeves of the body suit yellow. That way, when the armor moves as I bend my arm, everyone will still see yellow!
To start, I cut out the fabric following a body suit pattern:
I've made a body suit before with this pattern, so it didn't take long to throw it together (note: I put the zipper in the back, even though the pattern called for it in the front):
I still had to sew on the sleeves.
Then the base of the body suit was done!
All that remains is to add the decorative grey and red accents!
I still have to sew the purple wefts into the wig and double check the style, but it looks pretty good so far.

| The wig and the purple wefts, not yet one. |

| Trying on the wig when it arrived. No purple wefts yet! |
The next big step is to foamsmith the armor, which I've never done before, but I AM excited about! Wish me luck and look for more updates to come!
