Inspiration: Want to see if I can make a really good borg helmets
Favorite Aspect: Helmet. it just looks cool
Least Favorite Aspect: the white shirt....I hate wearing white, and THE STUPID WRIST GUARDS!!!! They were constricting and hard to move around with everything else I had.
Easiest Task: Lacross stick-just went out and bought a kid one and covered with long strips of cheap duct tape. Oh the knee pads and wrist guards were just borrowed from my sister.
Hardest Task: Hmmm you would think the Borg Helmet right, WRONG!!!! The hardest task was constructing the damn shirts. why you ask because I had a crap sewing machine that didn't want to sew. It wasn't until I borrowed a better one that the shirts went easy. the second hardest was the borg helmet , which just took time. it was a skater helmet that I built up using foam sheets, paper mache and mache clay. HOWEVER to smooth it out I used wall sizing which gave it a great look but it was heavy and after a couple of hours of it on my head I had such a headach.
