Patterning

-The pattern for Roy's (SSB4) chest piece and bottom chest piece-

Some people find it difficult already to find something in their size, however making armor comes with no patterns at all. I make mine in the simplest way I know- well two ways. (I also use big rolls of wax paper and draw on the rough side.) 1: For something like a chest piece I use measuring tape to measure the longest part of the armor horizontally, make that line (like here in black), measure the shortest part horizontally, and then the same both lengths with vertical. What I am describing is the big black cross on the top pattern. That usually gives me the ability to work out the rest of it still using measuring tape. 2: For making patterns for shoulders, I trace my shoulder, then draw out the shape I want, cut that out, then cut double that onto foam for just one shoulder. P.S. LABEL YOUR PATTERNS -Hope this helps!
