Looks great!!
Can you post some oics of your foam solution, the back looks great. Your gloves look a little pale if anything.

Sorry, took awhile to get to taking it out !
First I marked and trimmed where the edge of the helmet would be and tapered to fit.
This is how it would set but I set it up between the red and burgundy outer robes.
Now, I know it looks "off" but it is sitting on my mannequin, so it's not a perfect fit for him !

This is called "Burgundy 60'' Solid Stretch Scuba Knit Fabric" from Stylish Fabric.

Congrats, dwdj75! What pattern did you use to make your gloves? I've bought some of this fabric in hopes that it will match my inner robe better than dyeing the suede gloves I currently have (which I think might be the same ones you have lol).

Honestly just slapped my hand down, traced it, and added about 1/4" around it !
Here's a tutorial that is almost exactly how I did them.
