N7 armor and misc pieces

cults3d

When I originally crafted my N7 armor to cosplay Commander Shepard, I used 2mm craft foam for the hand armor. I quickly found out that movement in the hands and holding prop guns causes the foam edges to wrinkle and chip paint, so I transferred the design to 3D and printed them in hard plastic. No more wrinkles! This simplistic design might be useful in other sci-fi and fantasy costumes as well. My hands fit small gloves so I suggest taking measurements of your hands and scaling as desired prior to printing. Same goes for the arm cuff (rerebrace) and elbow pieces--if you print them as-is, you'd better be a 5'3" woman with skinny lil' chicken arms. Commander Shepard, N7, Mass Effect, etc. are property of EA and BioWare.
