Renfest has come around again so that means more medieval versions of superheroes. The Superman Costume I didn't really do much with since last year, just added some bracers you can see more detailed pics here. I am going to add some more details to the bracers, kind of the MOS trim with an S...

I've used water shoes before and they work well. I've seen people use slippers or house shoes, martial arts shoes, in The Amazing Spider-man he uses Asics dirt dogs. You just separate the soles from the shoes , slip the shoe into the costume and glue the soles onto the bottom. I've found e6000...

For boots you can use these , I used them before. They look the part, but fair warning, you get what you pay for, they are cheap and the red starts to flake off after the third or fourth time you wear them. As for weight loss, strength training burns more calories than cardio, your body uses...

Another Renfest in the bag. My wife was a big hit in her WonderWoman costume, lots of compliments and photo-ops.

Well, Halloween approaches, time for the mad dash to make half a dozen costumes, first up, the Black Suit Superman wore when he came back from the dead after Doomsday. I've been growing my hair and I didn't want a to cut my hair or shave my beard so I'm going for something like this. I have...
