Hey there. Nice costumes and cosplays! With your Rei costume I was very curious on what material you used for the plug suit. I'm going to try and make a Shinji one and am very curious on the material. I'm figuring it's a spandex like material..

Thanks in advance, and also check out my page for cosplay pics too if you'd like.

Hello and thank you! Sorry it took me forever to respond. >_<
I used 4-way stretch vinyl for my Rei costume.. it's a spandex backing with pvc vinyl on top. Very super stretchy!

Oh thank you for the response. I thought you ignored my question for some reason..

Anyways i have just a few more questions then..First Is it very hot? (more so then say a normal costume)?

Second, Is it hard to work with? and lastly what is the general price range.. Thank you again!

Long comment ahead!... Oh no, I didn't ignore you. Sorry! I have been traveling the past few weeks and didn't get a chance to be online.

The fabric is weird with temperatures. It's thin, but the vinyl coating holds in heat. When I wore it, I was freezing all the time because air seems to go right through it. When there is no air flow though, it can be pretty sweaty in there. It's a different feeling than a normal costume, but not unbearable or anything.

I found the fabric to be pretty easy to work with. No fraying on the edges, and no problems sewing it or anything. The 4-way stretch PVC can be pricey though. I got mine from MJ Trends online and it was $12.50/yd. I spent around $80 on fabric total, but other than my wig and some other notions that was about it for this costume.

In war, all of man's worst emotions, worst traits come out, it's easy to forget what a sin is in the middle of battle. There are no heros or heroines, you die, you die a dog's death.
As long as there are people, there will always be war.
