Not sure if this is the right place for this or not.
Im wondering if theres a gijoe cosplay/costume group on here and if we are allowed to post joe costume projects in the customs page or not. I really want some advice on a costume project im working on and i couldn't find a thread about this kind of stuff. Im currently working on a spytroops/VVV(Green/black) Overkill costume and im starting the process of gathering the materials for the gun arm and im wondering if anyone has some advice on that. Also some advise on the undersuit.

Well I ordered the helmet, undersuit, gloves, Helmet decal, and scarf this morning. I already have the tac vest, leg armor, Materials for the shoulder pad, I should have materials for the left gauntlet, and some parts for the gun.
Im having trouble figuring out the belt and arm gun, but the belt shouldn't be too hard. Ill post progress pics once my order gets in.

Hey FDP, your Cosplay posts/threads are more than welcome! I moved the thread over to GIJ GD though, as it's not really custom based (no worries though).
You should really check out a group called Cobra 1st Legion. They're the bees knees. https://www.facebook.com/Cobra1stLegion/?fref=ts |

Funny you brought this up. I went to Minicon 2016 at NJIT this weekend and saw this guy:
Sad thing is that none of the contest judges knew who the character was. |

So ive almost got my costume ready only 2 things remain red eye contacts and the robot arm. I have some ideas for the arm and will try and work on it over the next few weeks, but if anyone knows where to get red eye contacts please let me know.
Once I have the arm or the contacts ill post a pic.

I have never purchased colored contacts.
However all the sites I have looked at that are FDA approved, say first thing you have to do is go to your optometrist. You need to know your size and prescription before purchasing. Some optometrists may even have a recommendation or even be able to order lenses for you right there. I do see one site that pops up quite frequently in searches and on cosplay forums but since I have never used them or know anyone who has I cannot personally recommend it.
