Has anyone seen the movie rampage? I am thinking of making the suit of armor he wears and was looking for some advise on how to go about getting the pieces of armor to stick together. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. If I got this in the wrong spot Im sorry. I wasnt sure if it would go here or in the gear section.

Is this the armor you're looking to duplicate?

The vest is a standard crossdraw, very cheap and uterlly worthless for most players, except those on a tight budget and just starting out. As for the other parts, most of these are either custom made (for the movie) or modified sports equipment.

B-B Wars tried something similar to this in developing our Full Body Armor suit, click the picture to view the video.



Attaching the armor pieces isn't all that difficult, finding the right pieces is, and more than likely they'll need to be painted because most sporting goods pads, etc. have logos and striping on them. Some sandpaper, masking tape, and spray paint work wonders.

If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. I'll help anyway I can.

Have to agree with Vindi, that is one of the issues we have faced, the wearer is constantly overheating in even warm weather. Cooler weather was not so much an issue, but once it gets past March, for get it.

Although there is one alternative to this problem, it's called a cool suit (or something similar). Here are some examples.
