Take one squeezy Tomato Sauce/Ketchup bottle. I think it's this type. You'll know because the sides are just right for shins.

Cut the sides out of the bottle to a rough shinpad shape and sand them until you're happy with what you've got. These only took about 10mins to do. I think you'll be able to tell from the photo's. Lol.



Sorry if something like this has been posted before.

Now that is pretty darn ingenious!
Looks like someone might be working on a Colonial Marine, judging from the paint on the shin armor?

Lol. That was the idea behind it.

Hah! Brilliant!
If you need reference pictures or anything, I can help you out. Looks like you're off to a nice start though!
