So its been a looong time since ive been on these boards but the time has come for a new build! I was watching the special features on the alien box set (mainly creatures because, well, CrEATURES!) and i saw the test footage for the unused "bambi butster" puppet. So freaking cute! So given my...

Cheers for the kind words went down a treat as did the wampa i bashed out in 3.5 hours! As for the sculpt it was mainly dictated by the fact its a hat so i had to work round being able to wear it! Just looked for reference pics and dived in! Its not very movie accurate but its just a goofy one...

Hello all, just thought id share my silly costume for a may the 4th be with you party! Its a bit silly but turned out pretty good for 12 hours making time! Its a tauntaun from starwars! Latex face, foamex horns and pretty low grade fake fur. Not 100% movie accurate but i like him! Got making of...

Just chilling and reflecting on how yesterday went, pretty pleased with the costume and despite a few wig issues early on in the day it worked fairly well, id need to redo the arm pieces as they just wanted to ping back flat but everything remained fairly well stuck/ positioned all day. Im a bit...

Con day! Gonna post stuff tomorrow when im less knackered! Really enjoyed myself today but it just confirmed i hate myself in photos! Pretty pleased with the reaults and all the great feedback i got from people. Xxxxx

Re: Dante dmc: super quick build 3 days and counting! 2 nights left... Done a rush job of a sword this evening, its quite bulky And unrefined, if i have time im going to redo the blade cos its horrible but if i cant it will do :( ummmmm yeah made a start on the coat too, but im ****ing it up so...

So london super comic con is on saturday and im nearly there with my witchblade costume, but the boyfriend has decided on dante from devil may cry 5 as his costume (yes i know despite it being a comic convention) and like a sap i agreed. He told me this last night and i have a gig to attend...

Re: witchblade sara pezzini: 1st test pics added! The battle-kini starts to take shape! Little disapointed by the way the latex face pieces sit but i guess thats from casting them flat (doh!) gonna shread a vest at the con, not brave or toned enough for baring all! What do you think so far?

Re: witchblade sara pezzini: 1st test pics added! Paint tests! Help needed on this, thinking more greeny but painting is not my strong point!

Thats completely amazing! Really nice sculpt and the paint job is super but i think you want to post this in the costume showcase bit. Very lovely though, hope your happy with the end result :)

Re: witchblade sara pezzini 1st timer Its out!!!!! Im too damn Impatient, demoulded my latex today, bad idea the elbow to wrist section was fine but the hand is super thin, so i let it dry all day then did a slush of poly flex rubber, i was trying to do this build just with materials i paid for...

What gives fibreglass its strength is the glass matting, the resin by itself is naturally brittle. Just a thought if you didnt want to use glass mat, howabout a fabric with resin? Something natural with a fairly loose weave and heavy thickness would probrably do the trick, you want the resin to...
