Really? Interesting. Did it crash when loading headshot-web.jpg? That's the
same image, just at a smaller size.
Very futuristic there, wackoid (and I mean that with all due respect).
Not too original (marginally plagiarized from Disney:
http://disney.go.com/disneyvideos/li.../tron01.html#), but
it shows initiative and determination if not creativity.
Not just "marginally plagiarized" from Disney, but explicitly designed to
be in the same style as the costumes in the movie. This is common in
costuming at SF cons, which is where that one was originally aimed.
Have you ever considered incorporating a micorcontroller and LEDs into
an actively moving display scene on your suits? It's not that
difficult....
Not really; I'm not sure the extra complexity would be worth the effect. It
would also highlight the difference between the armor and the unitard -
since I can't put amything on that, because it wouldn't survive being
washed. There's also the minor matter of where to put it: there's not a lot
of space left under the armor for more batteries and the like.
