Mortal Kombat Cosplay Thread

Hi all,

I thought I would create this thread because I could not find a seperate mortal kombat thread after a search, and I am in progress of making every single mortal kombat mask, helmet, and weapon. I currently have 2 masks in progress with more to come. I would love to see pics of other members work. Here are the pics of my current MK projects. More to come.

Here's one I made for my 8 year old last year. It was a last minute Halloween costume as I couldn't get his Predator suit finished on time and started out as a bit of a mess around making the mask. It's totally made of foam yoga mats and was made from scratch by eye using a few different references so it's a mix of suits from various games. The mask is a bit on the large side but I couldn't be bothered remaking it at the time as I finished it with a day to spare. It's definitely something I'll amend in future.

Here he is after the basic suit was put together, pre-painting.

This is him on Halloween last year with his big sister in the Batman suit I made her. This is the only picture I could get of him as he then instantly started stalking kids around the fields on my in-laws farm throwing the spear on a chain I made him as Scorpion's weapon. I've never been so proud as he was fully in character the whole time he had the suit on. Then again, so was my daughter as she deliberately didn't smile when she had the cape and cowl on.

Those are great kid costumes, ronnyjodes!

Man, I did a Scorpion several years ago but I don't have a clue where any of the pics are. I'll put one up if I find it.

I always love a good MK costume!

I'm building a MK3 cyborg smoke costume and was wondering if anyone knows exactly what the actors used in the game for the costume so I can get it as close as possible thanks!
 
well since this thread has been resurrected, figured I'd share. Nothing recent, but here's a shot of the costume I made for Halloween of 1993, I was obsessed with Mortal Kombat so I rode my bike to the local arts and crafts store and used the allowance I had saved to buy stuff for a Sub-Zero costume.

Ha that's awesome I was scorpion for Halloween as a kid but have no clue where that picture is that was over 20 years ago. I have been asking for help everywhere on all kinds of pages and forums but no responses from anyone lately. Who else is building mk costumes these days?

hmmm, from what I remember the movie masks weren't built around any existing masks, the costuming / props department completely build and cast them. i'm not sure if you're set on building your own or if you're considering buying one, but if you do a search for "scorpion movie mask" on Etsy, there's a result for a great looking one going for $75.

EDIT: Oh wait, my mistake, I just realized you're looking for a Smoke mask, not a Scorpion one! Still, I'd check out that seller's (DarbDesignz)
other masks, you might find something that works!
 
Ok cool definitely will check them out I really want this to look good it doesn't seem like a lot of people do this cosplay so it would be nice to have something different.

Thanks for sharing! Loved the first Mortal Kombat movie and watched it often.
That Kobalt blue jacket is awesome - my favorite colour
 
New mask is 3d printed, sanded, and paint has started. all that stuff that looks bad in the paint, like sand, is just my crappy phone pictures. it is not sand or dust in the paint, it is the metalic silver base cote sparkling through the candy blue when the flash of the camera went off. when it has dried for about 3 days i will tape off and do candy black on the accent pieces.

paint and color sanding on the mask finally done.

I'm looking for a way to create a voice changer for Sektor from MK11. I don't believe it to be a big challenge since he has a deep robotic voice with a slight echo (but hey what do I know). I'm not picky on price or needing to build one myself, I just want something effective. I plan on making a full suit so I would stow most of the electronics in the chest and back with a mic running inside the helmet. I've looked in to arduinos and raspberry pi but have second to none experience with those but I will learn if need be. All recommendations are welcome, this project is going to put the whole costume together! Here's a voice clip of what I'm looking for 54:41 and 1:06:53. If any one has experience with voice changers please let me know!
 
I like it, but sektors voice is quite deep. If there was a way for me to customize the voice itself I would definitely jump on this. Thanks for the recommendation tho!

I have never been happy with my glove choices, or going bare knuckled, until now. Standard cheap boxing wraps (mexican wraps specifically, they stretch better for me) with some 3D printed spikes on the knuckles and woven through the wraps.
