Coolest Homemade Juggernaut Costume from X-Men

I have been a fan of Marvel and the X-men ever since I was a child. I was always into the big characters (you know, the tough guys that always smash things.) My character is “the Juggernaut”. He possesses incredible amount of strength, invulnerability, and stamina. Once the Juggernaut starts moving he cant be stopped. Nobody messes with him.

I used green cushion foam for the body, e.v.a foam (yoga mats) for the feet, and spandex fabric under latex for the skin.

Tools I used were scissors, razor blade, electric knife, spray adhesive, gorilla tape, hot glue gun, and a dremel.

Steps for making this homemade Juggernaut Costume:

Rolled foam tubes around my arm legs and body
Rolled another layer of foam around bicep, forearm, thigh, calf, and chest
Carve and fade to your liking
Carve muscles and glue to appropriate places (its all eyeballing)
Once you have the shape you like, then spray glue spandex fabric over the carved body (small ares at a time and pull tight)
Spread a thin layer of latex all over character surface, let dry (repeat)
Use hard foam (ex bogey boards) for feet, add layers for height, cover in foam and carve
Rolled foam around finished calf of character ( for boot leg top )
Do step 5,6 for the boots
Cut strips of e.v.a foam for arm bands, and spray painted
Found the best shaped plastic bowl I could find cut out eyes and mouth with dremel and spray painted
For the fist I just layered e.v.a foam and carved then layerd greem foam over and carved
Do step 5, 6 for the fist

People mouths dropped. There were comments like “I love your costume”, “you did an awesome job”, ” man that thing’s sick”, holy s@^& how u do that?”. My fav was “that’s the best costume I’ve ever seen”

The Juggernaut is fully moveable, and u can run in it. It stands 7 ft tall and weighs about 45lbs total (the feet weighing 10lbs themselves)
