Re: [Wookiee] Undersuit Question

I think the need for a under suit depends on your own frame. The main reason I use on is because I use stilts the legs had to be made quite chunky to disguise them which in turn meant building up my upper body to stay in proportion. Hope that makes sense.

Subject: [Wookiee] Undersuit Question

Howdy folks. Sorry I have not had a chance to post since I joined, but
work had taken the forefront of my time for the last little while. I
have gotten back to costuming and have a few questions with reguards
to the under suit.
1. Is a padded under suit a must?

2. If you have added the extra padding, how did you secure it to the
under armor? Sew it or snaps to allow for cleaning?

Thanks for taking the time to reply,

Mike.

Thanks for the quick replies guys. I have been looking at my mock up and noticed that the foot bulge is going to be a problem. I didn't want to beef up my...

I was able to con my dad into making the shirt (a decision he regrets, although I am making it up to him by building him an Ackbar suit) and I did the pants....
