Sorry about the hair guys, too much gel i'm afraid, (needs cutting anyway so short and neat it will be afterwards lol)
Seriously the pads are made from high density foam gym mats, the same as the interlocking mats you can buy from ebay or argos. They come in sizes 2ft x 2ft or 4ft x 4ft. These are very flexiable, easy to cut and work with. All of the eagle pad is made from this foam. Once you have the initial eagle wing, head, feathers and claws drawn and sized out on paper then card then it's easy to use these as stencils to cut your shapes out on the foam. I used a bolt on the top right on the front and back of the pad through to the inside of the jacket and fastned with a nut. This way when you lift the arm the pad moves easily without coming away from the jacket. Elastic is then fitted to the bottom corners and again fastened through the jacket enabling the pad to return to it's original position rather than being stuck in the air. Hope this info helps!

I agree with Peter! 'GET - IT - RIGHT !!! Failure is not an option.Listen to the Fans'.
This is the one movie that they cannot afford to screw up. There are so many good storylines and characters they can use for this movie that would work. As fans we have shown also that a comic accurate representation of the Judge Uniform can and should be used, it will look realistic and a look a darn sight better than in the previous movie.
Please get a serious actor, director, producer, costume director etc and make this one of the best movies of 2009!

Hi to you all!
I'm new to this site as although I have looked before I haven't registered until now. I'm a big fan of the 2000AD characters (obviously) and recently have been crafting my own Judge Costume. Thought you might like to see how i'm doing so far, any comments would be greatly appreciated. Drokk it!
