    Jul 24, 2012 - THOR Movie Costumes #1

    I was inspired by the movie THOR and this build took about a month to complete. So i went the cheap approach and bought the disguise THOR movie costume for $60, $12 for the disguise Hammer and made the Gauntlets out of 10 mm foam and topped it of with 3mm foam, fully painted. Detailed the arms with black fabric paint as well as added muscle padding for the overall look.

    I used my NEW ROCK Boots as well as NEW ROCK leggings for the boots which isn't movie accurate I know but still worked out fine.
    Grew my hair out and colored. Beard grown out and colored so it almost looks like i dont have one lol.

    The Hammer has been completely re-detailed and chromed!

    All for a really great price! Pleas keep in mind this is the THOR version and NOT the AVENGERS version which will come this Fall.

    Here is the Disguise THOR HAMMER thread:

    http://www.therpf.com/f9/disguise-av...pgrade-147344/

    There really isnt any progress pics as the Disguise costume is a pretty good base from what ive seen other people do.
    A few tweaks to this costume including a new cape, detailed Arms, Built-from-scratch Gauntlets, and added New Rocks!!

    Yes, The Cape was added. Added 20 mm foam to the frame of the cape as it sat on my shoulders. It was easier than I expected and I was DREADING IT!! lol I don't know why but it didnt turn out too bad.

    Yeah not too bad for the price at all!!

    For what you had to work with and the time, you really pulled that off amazingly well! You really do look the part.

    I'm so glad you posted too, it gives me hope that maybe I can throw a decent Thor together for my husband that won't take me a year and $500+ to do. haha!

    The picture in front of the "Iron Man" suit display is damn good. You have the most important parts of the costume totally nailed, meaning, the hair and the beard! You pull the look off well.

    Considering you used a store bought costume as a base, that's pretty good work. Thumbs up!

    You look awesome, Jaze!

    Too bad I didn't run into you when I was wearing my Heimdall Saturday. There's always next year, though.

    Aug 1, 2012 - Re: THOR Movie costume (THOR) AND an offer... #21

    Yo, Thor,

    Superb kit. Great look. I am amazed considering your base to work off of.

    Here's the "offer" - are you coming to Dragon*Con? I hope like heck you are. I'm the lead photog on a "Marvel The Avengers" movie Shoot and the one character we're short is Thor. If you're making D*C 2012 we'd love to have you throw in with us.

    This is a serious effort too. My equipment is top shelf and the director/organizer of this Shoot knows his Avengers canon and the kits of the others is way nice.

    Let me know and, IF you are coming to D*C, I'll hook you into the loop.

    I'm surprised how good this looks. More realistic armor would take this to the next level, but for what this is, this is dope. The beard and the hair really help everything out, so I find myself looking more at your facial expressions and your stance than I do the actual costume.

    This is dope, dude, good job.
