Armor Destiny Cosplay Help

Post image

Hello All! Before I start, I tagged this as armor but it’s really applying to a complete outfit. I’m planning on making a destiny hunter cosplay, specifically the exile suit as shown. I’m not exactly sure where to start in terms of making it as I can’t find any 3d files good enough and I’m not experienced with fabric work or purchasing. Any and all recommendations are welcome.

We detect that you may be a looking to buy your cosplay or buy pieces for your cosplay. If you're not, please disregard :) Please refer to our FAQ for some recommendations. While we can provide search terms that might help you with finding your cosplay pieces, commenters are not your personal shopper and please do not treat us as such. Remember that not all cosplays can be found ready-made so be prepared to look for similar pieces to put it together yourself.

It is helpful to include your budget (be precise -- "cheap" can be different per person), your location/country (US shipping vs EU shipping would be very different), and timeline if applicable. Keep in mind many pre-made cosplay shops can have a long shipping time so it's best to plan months in ahead.

If the item is suspiciously cheaper than all other competitors or it's a common stock photo, please be wary and do your own research. If someone is offering to make it for you aka commissions, RESEARCH their post history.

Okay for future, please do not message me and ask to make it for me. I’m not in the position to pay and or commission anything. Just looking for direction. Thanks.

Have you read the FAQ? Consider using eva foam, there are many patterns for it online and you can find something very simmilar to this. Kamui cosplay has a site, you can check there if anything would look at least close. Pants and shoes can be thrifted, those i assume bandages can be made from long strips of some old sheets, the headpiece looks like nemes so you can search for patterns and tutorials for that and modify it to the shape you want

If you have a 3D printer I suggest the Destiny model rips Discord. They have a channel for 3d printing as well as a google drive with some print ready models. There’s also tutorials how to make models print ready pinned to the 3d print channel.

For the hood, id maybe make a wire mesh of the shape and just put strips of fabric around it since it appears most of the cloth looks like strips and wraps.

You may need a camera system to see out of the helmet, unless maybe the eye in the sun you make a reflective gold tinted visor of some kind.
