I made this Gordon Freeman costume (from the video game Half Life 2) largely out of craft foam. It took about a week's worth of work to complete in time for Halloween 2006. Got about 8 hours of sleep total during that week, but worth it!

One of many source photos here: [link]

well done! Too bad the photo's so back lit, it makes it hard to see details. But it looks like you did a very good job painting everything, and all the shapes are spot-on.

Actually, I purposely backlit the photo to resemble the source photo. :) I painted some weathering and light battle damage to the suit so I wouldn't look so new. The final colors aren't exact to the game, but I think it makes it look more semi-realistic instead of with bright colors.

You're right, the production art is backlit, isn't it? (I love those images, with the ash falling like snow. And I like Alyx with the socket wrench.)

I think toning down the colors is a good idea. Bright orange is rather..garish.
