I've had an account here for a few years, but this is my first post. (I have done some serious lurking!) It's only appropriate that I post my Captain America costume first:

Top two photos are by Scott McKeeve; final photo is by my Dad. Made this costume in summer of 2006 and have been adding little modifications to it ever since. My favorite mod, of course, is Bucky Bear. (And just in case it isn't obvious, I am a girl...)

My first Cap, first made by KMD back in 2007- this pic was it's final outing being sold- at SDCC 2010. It was based on the Jack Kirby art of Cap in the 60's.

WonderCon 2010-
At the Dixon May Fair in 2007- got to carry the American Flag in the parade,it was awesome! The hood was a little "squinty", it was replaced.

some really awesome costumes guys. Cap is my favorite hero and was the first Costume I ever made. I just wish I could figure out how to make a proper mask/cowl.

I was actually in one of the proto-versions of this suit when Allen came up to me in the check-in line at DragonCon and ordered me to get on the League of Heroes.

So to break it down:
The cowl is a custom Reevz hood (www.reevz666.com), done off a head cast of my freakishly large head.
The armor was fashioned out of 900 or so foamies, sewed and glued to a way-too-small t-shirt, and washed twice with acrylic paint. First navy blue, then a 50/50 mix of aluminum and water. Then sealed with a flat coat.
The shirt under the armor is a custom made bike shirt made from Lycra swimsuit material.
The gloves are reproduction WWII RAF aviator's gloves.
The boots are lineman's boots, which can be picked up at most army/navy stores, or via the internet.
The belt is a WWII BAR gunner's belt.
The shield was custom painted from a sled picked up on Amazon. (although I'm planning a major shield upgrade this year).

This is the...
