The Mad Person-Who-Stitches: Trapeze Doom Guy

For Aerial Anime's video game theme, Doom guy is making an appearance:
This was a 1-hour costume: green t-shirt, green leggings, 1/2 inch flexible foam, and shoulder pads of doom:
Elisheba ripped the leggings.  I cut the foam into abbreviated breast- and backplates and stitched them into the t-shirt, turning up the length of the shirt and using it as self-lining for the foam.  Add shoulder pads and an elastic breastband (covered with scrap leotard fabric from my stash), and it's done!
It even stands up by itself!  It's messy on the inside, but I'm wary of stitching the foam down too firmly: the t-shirt has to stretch enough to be put on, and the foam will only stretch a little.
