Loki costume: armor stripe 2

This test went a lot better. This time I colored the foam before I cut the pieces out. This resulted in clearly defined tiles, making me much happier. Unfortunately cutting them resulted in some flaking along their edges -- I might see if I can put another layer of color on each tile individually, now that they are glued down and can't go anywhere. Still, this looks much better than the previous attempt.

I also played with the color -- this is a mix of the true gold and the antique gold, because on the costume these tiles are a slightly different shade than most of the body armor, yet not as bright gold as the necklace piece that he seems to wear in all three costumes.
