Updates:
August 26: Been meaning to announce my wanting to do this. Though I will need a Yorda like whoah. The cosplay is only half finished if I don't have a Yorda. That said, anyone going to AUSA or Katsucon or Otakon who is a pale female taller than I am and willing to walk around in a white dress and no shoes and get led around by me for a con, PLZ TELL ME AND BE MY YORDA PLZ. Anyway, as it stands, I would LIKE to do this a lot, but who knows.

September 28: So, I'm contemplating doing Black. I mean, he pretty much... is me. If I were male and in the Pokémon world. We look stupid alike, I wouldn't even need a wig! It'd be great. I mean, short brown hair? Check. Affinity for hats? Check. Snappy dresser? Check. Pokémon Master? CHECK.

Jan 12: If not WV, I'd like to do John lol. Or Karkat, but that's another issue entirely. IDK if I wanna paint myself gray for that. Anyway, John is derp and that hoodie-cape is love and I love this comic and the characters and there's like HALF THE CAST I want to cosplay sob. I'll probably do John OR WV, but most likely not both. The only problem is which one...
Feb 13: Hood get. Well, part of the hood. Still working on the long part.

yokaiy @ Endranse: OH GOD THANK YOU. D: This costume will kill me with all the eccentricies. Most of it's going to be surprisingly easy, but getting the fan and horns to look GOOD will be torture. How do I make something out of fiberglass? ^^; @ BL: We'll kidnap her as well. >D
I'll tell you since I was the one who did it! ^_^ First, what you gotta do is get all the pieces sculpted out of the foam, pipe, or whatever you gotta sculps the back fan out of.
Then you've gotta go to Home Depot, Lowes or some other local home improvement store. Go to the Paint department and the fiberglass cloth and apoxy should be next to each other. Buy some cheap paintbrushes, like 1 in or 1.5 ins and make sure you've got some disposable containers that are small but sturdy (I found that those little half pound or 1 pound deli cylenders you get potato salid in work best.
After you have all of that, lay your pieces that are carved out on a flat surface that's covered with cardboard and line them up so they look completed (if there's more than one piece that is) MAKE SURE YOU ARE OUTSIDE!!!!! This stuff will stink and make you high and is EXTREMELY FLAMABLE!!!!!
Okay, so you lay the fiberglass cloth out over your foam, pvc, whatever it is and cut it so its either the exact same size with holes (if there's holes in the foam) or that is slightly larger. If its windy out, then pin the cloth to the foam or whatever. You'll loose the pins in the end, but you won't get too many bubbles that way.
So, after that's all set, put on a pair of plastic gloves so this stuff won't stick to your skin. Open the big jug of resin and poor some into the plastic container. It should've come with a small squeeze tube of clear stuff. This is what will make it harden in the end. Add a little at a time untill its the consistency is says it should be on the big jug, making sure you stir it all the time.
Once its all mixed up, quick!! Apply it like you're painting a wall, making sure you do one whole coat over the whole thing. Make it as even as possible too! Once the stuff in the container begins to dry, its no good! After a coat is put on, let it dry outside overnight. The next day, do the same thing to the other side. After both sides have the hardened cloth over them, then you should put at least another coat of the resin on either side.
After is all done, sand out the rough edges real good and paint!!
Though I not only suggest doing this with adult supervision, but also look up guides in the hardware store to make sure you're doing it right, ask the associates for advice or how they'd do it, and try it on a spare piece of foam. It took me 3 key-heads to get the keyblade right!
It that helpful I hope? ^^; |
