razorsharp192 · 03-22-2010, 06:15 PM

anyone had a go at making one of these?

razorsharp192 · 03-23-2010, 04:31 PM

anyone?

NoTsOsErIoUs · 03-23-2010, 04:46 PM

I must admit I was looking into it last week.
Just been collecting reference at the moment.
Classic pair of Timberlands in use there.

razorsharp192 · 03-23-2010, 04:57 PM

i'd love to get the mask

wouldnt be that hard for someone to make (thats got the skill of course) as its pretty basic

for the big daddy costume you could just modify a batman suit

NoTsOsErIoUs · 03-23-2010, 05:51 PM

Apparently the Big Daddy costume was put together using French Police riot gear.

That's awesome! I was wanting to put together a more grown up Hit-Girl (since I'd have a hard time pulling off an 11 year old), but her costume is pretty complicated and I just don't have the funds. But it's a group I so wanna see at a con coming up!

sebmodio · 03-24-2010, 11:30 AM

I was looking into making just the mask. Here's some ref pics I got from trailers and such.

I was thinking that perhaps a luchador mask may be a good starting point.

Kick-A$$ would be a fun costume to do, although I'm worried that it will end up being "The-Costume", kind of like Dark-Knight era Joker, or 'Rorschach'.

First off it's Rorschach. Secondly people are free to do whatever costume they dang well please. Don't see anyone getting thier panties in a twist 'bout all the Iron Man or Mad Hatter costumers.

Even if it does, those who spend time and care about their costumes--the ones who put in the effort to make it as SA as possible--are going to be head and tails above those that threw it together. See the recent Gilligan thread if you don't believe me.

But back to reason for this thread, I'll be attempting a mask this weekend hopefully. It's going to be rough, but it's just a trial run.

Clow · 03-26-2010, 06:21 PM

I just saw that movie, and it's ultimate, i honestly love it...hit girl is definitly on my list !

Donnie Darko · 03-27-2010, 03:05 AM

Amazing flick. One of the most entertaining films I have seen in years.

A pretty simple costume to do, although the whole yellow detailing is embroidered stitching.

ack, I didn't mean it like that. I've seen some damn good common costumes out there and I don't want to take anything away from that. I meant that I personally like to build costumes that are obscure, or arn't done that much. But I would love to do a Kick-Ass costume.

If anyone is going to make some great costumes from this movie, it's going to be the people here.

Now.. I'm off to practice my speling.

Ah, well if thats how you meant it then I can see your point of view. Sorry if I grabbed the wrong end of the stick.

sebmodio · 03-28-2010, 07:53 AM

Here's my first try at a mask. I just made a mask based on the pattern from the link I posted earlier. Now that I have some mask making skills, next up is an actual Kick-Ass mask.

I should probably get a hair cut if I'm going to be doing this costume

Sarah · 03-28-2010, 08:00 AM

I went and saw the movie last night and was wondering how long it would take for someone to start on this, hoping to see lots of people in these costumes and Dragon*Con this year.

NICE!!!!!
Can't wait to see it done!
; )))

Too bad you're that far, a hit-girl kick ass photoshoot would have been cool : )

troopermatthew · 03-28-2010, 04:40 PM

My costume club pursuded me to do this as i not only look like the guy but have his build! Seamstress hired for custome suit, talked to a weapons expert regarding his night sticks and identified his shoes.

I hate them all

PlasticineNinja · 03-28-2010, 04:45 PM

I'm also about to start doing the mask, if that works out I'll do the rest of the costume.

Uncle · 03-28-2010, 11:05 PM

The mask reminds me of a balaclava. Maybe one could be modified.

GeneralFROSTY · 03-29-2010, 12:23 AM

No doubt as we get closer to the release of the movie - and likely in time for this year's Halloween - there will be at least one or two sources to obtain a replica of this costume...not to mention the always terrible quality licensed version.

Snakeeyez · 04-04-2010, 11:10 AM

I hope someone does a few costumes from the movie.

Considering how complicated and costly it is to produce replicas of many other movie characters, these should be a childs play for pretty much every experienced costume maker here on the RPF.
