BuckeyeEmpire Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 We finally finished building/painting the day before the game, and it was such a great time. Definitely trying to make it to some basketball games. Could use some advice on altering them so it's easier to sit down. Hope I'm posting this in the correct area as I'm new to the site. I now understand just how fun these costumes are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SolderMaster Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Might I suggest either some Under Armour Cold Gear or Under Armour Cold Gear and a dive skin for cold weather games? I think your suit will "Pop" alot more if your black under suit isnt all bunchy. Your suits of Ohio State Buckeyes are freaking awesome!!! Great work on those things!

Yah the bottoms look bunchy because we wore gym shorts over the base layer... going to the bars we needed cell phones and wallets on us, what do you guys usually do for pockets? It was a crazy situation so we had to have them on us haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-2126_MD[TK] Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) Very cool!!!! The sitting down part< u can either cut the butt plate to be smaller like a speedo or if u are only going to use this suit for the Games u could lose the cod and butt and thighs all together and wear the long shorts of the team. that way u have 100% sit!!! http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=8533&st=0&p=108277&hl=+cutting%20+cod&fromsearch=1entry108277 This is one of the few links for the modifing to get to sit down, there are others.

NoVATie[Admin] Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 When I wore mine to a game I wore the boots/shins, but just had shorts on. Also had a jersey on top over the chest armor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
