Thor
So this is my major Tinker (& fitness) project for the time being - Project Thor!
Basically I need ridiculous goals to achieve anything resembling fitness (c.f. running the marathon) and I have not done anything yet for the Tailor part of my blog so I conceived a cunning scheme - to go as convincingly as possible as the guy to the left [<-], The Mighty Thor!
This requires the following things:
Getting my weight down to 79 kilos (12.5 stone)
Putting on some muscle
Crafting Mjolnir
Making the upper body armour
Obtain some crazy black trousers (I mean just look at them [<-])
Obtaining some boots
Growing and dyeing my hair blonde
The challenge ends on October 31st 2012
Obviously there are a few caveats to the "convincingly" I wrote above. Clearly I am not an actor paid lots of money just to work out for a role so I will do my best to achieve a reasonable physique for the costume.
An update will follow later with 'Before' photos.
Tom out!
P.S. Apparently I already have a cape! :)
