I began working on making the jacket cuffs out of paper mache. Same process as the boot; bubble wrap, duct tape with paper mache and monster mud. After a few more layers I'll glue them onto the sleeves.

Next came the scariest part for me, cutting the jacket in half. There was no way I could work with sealing the inside having it still on the skeleton frame. So, I used my Dremel tool to cut through the material along the spine. I'll add a few coats of monster mud, paint it with Drylok then spray paint it black. I'll give it a few days to dry before I coat it with a good sealer.
