I have finished working on spray painting the sword and sheath. I attached the right arm pieces and chest plate to an old shirt of mine. I will then wear the old shirt instead of making things more complicated.

Today in English class I worked on finishing the leg pieces of the suit. I plan to work on finishing the right arm later today in middle makers. I also plan to Create the fabric tubes thar hold the limb pieces together.

Day.6

John Sutherland

Today I began the prototype design for the leg pieces of my suit of armor. I found out that if I use one wide piece of cardboard and bend it down the middle, I can save both time and resources while working. 

Day.5

Today I worked on adding the second shoulder strap to my chest piece. I plan to add a bit more pizzazz to it later down the line. I am also going to be using magnets to connect the different pieces together.

Last class I took the time to obtain a spray paint certification in preparation for the final stages of my project. Today I spray painted the left arm of the suit in a first coat of the color black. I am also working on furthering the development of the magnet lock system.
