    i have a number of guides to cosplay armor as well as leatherworking patterns, but it is always nice to pick up more materiel. I loved the modular guides, the photos of the undeveloped blanks being formed and the overall style of armor parts. these would be easily converted from fantasy into other genre gear (I am thinking of a certain set of warrior nuns in the 40th millenium…). thanks for the masculine templates. being of the fuller figure, i will be upscaling, but the guides and format will make this nice and easy to do. thank you for this publication.

    I love this book so much! I only recently came across kinpatsu cosplay so I was skeptical about buying their book but it was definitely worth it. There are pictures, tips, steps for creating the same things, patterns, and it even gives you cosplay stores to buy materials at. I only wish the book was longer. Definitely worth the money!

    I loved it and learned a lot. I missed more photos of the step by step, but still great.
