didn't link character or game name, expect us to reverse image search and hold your hand

You are planning on making a full suit of armor and can't even provide basic references, and don't even use the help thread. You are off to a grand start.

Yes, you can make this out of plywood. It will probably only take you the weekend. Please post pics on Monday.

This.

If you don't know these basics, you can't make this costume. Sorry anon.

Plywood is an absolutely terrible idea.

For that kind of suit, you'd probably be best off doing foam and just shaving down to the sizes you need, then hardening and decorating. Worbla isn't nearly as forgiving for a first time armor builder. There's usually an armor thread or maybe the LARP folks would be handy to ask.
