There are a lot of fun ways to do this costume, and I'd be excited to see your version.If you are feeling a little down after your friends have been reduced to ash by a super-powerful alien madman, then this Thor costume is the perfect choice for your next cosplay or Halloween event. Some of the older style comic book art appears to have him wearing boots that look like they're just golden yellow fabric wrapped around his legs up to about his knees.
There are a lot of different ways to fake boots so if you can't do it this way don't worry. I simply cut out some pieces of pleather and inserted them into the straps so they would look like part of the boot. I already had the boots with straps around them. The straps are from some leather vambraces I made, but you could just use a couple thin belts wrapped around a few times. I wrapped some excess fabric that I cut off the sheet around my arms and held them in place with some leather straps with buckles. Some of them just had a red band with a strap around it so I went with that one. There a lot of different variations on the "vambraces" that he wears. So I just decided to wear blue jeans and a black muscle shirt. He's also frequently depicted in a black shirt. Most depictions that I found of Thor seem to have him in blue pants, or at least dark pants. The rest of the costume was pretty much thrown together. I used the vertical strips on the belt like inverse belt loops to attach it to my actual belt. The bottom is simply held in place by the belt. I actually just hot glued the chest plate to the cardboard collar. To be completely honest I didn't paint the rest of the belt to match the chest plate because I ran out of paint and didn't have time to get more. The circles are painted silver to match the other ones. Then I put the four vertical strips on the back and added the circles. I made two of those and then I connected them in the middle with two strips of foam. The top and bottom "straps" and the part that the circle is attached to (with the triangle pointing down) are one piece. I'll try to label the parts in the photo so it's clear which parts I'm talking about. It's made from two main identical parts. I hope I can correctly convey how I did the belt on here. I hot glued the pieces together and voila! The background piece, which we spray painted grey, the two strips that go up the middle, which we spray painted silver, and the two independent circles, which were also spray painted silver. The chest piece is done in five separate parts. Once we had our large piece of foam we cut out the design. We did try to keep the seams in places that wouldn't be too noticable. I also put hot glue in the seams by folding them back, putting glue into the seam and then "closing" the seam. We just took come larger pieces and taped along the seams on the back. We couldn't find foam sheets big enough to do the whole thing so we pieced some sheets together.
Of course I also advise starting on paper before transferring to your medium of choice.

Considering that you might have to change it a bit for your size and body type you might just be best free hand drawing it.
To get the right look we did a bit of a mix between looking at pictures, printing out a drawing to trace, and modifying things to our liking as we went.
