Thanks! To me the movie is the ultimate cult classic. I'm glad it has so many fans now.

Hi everyone. I wanted to share the Donnie Darko Frank mask I've been working on this past year. Here's a look at the finished mask with hood. Scroll down for more of my progress pictures. I sculpted it in Chavant Monu-Melt which has become one of my favorite clays. It's a non-sticky oil-based...

Thanks everyone! Scottx3 Most of it was just free-handed directly to foam. For the base shape I used Evil Ted's large helmet pattern which you can find on his website. Seth Skywalker To get the metal texture I stipple Creature Cast neoprene onto the foam and then drybrushed a few layers of...

Hey everybody, just wanted to share a quickie build I did recently. This is the ever-popular Knights of Ren "grenade face" helmet. I love the simple but striking design, and I think it complements the Kylo Ren helmet well. This one is constructed of EVA foam and finished to look like cast metal...

Well done! Love that paint job. The carved texture is definitely a nice touch. I'm also trying for nonlethal, but not strictly. It takes the fun out of it if I have to keep reloading previous saves.

baconboyrlz I've created templates for most of the armor pieces, and I'm putting together a stormtrooper pepakura helmet that I'll use as a base for the helmet. I'm not very far along on the shoes, but my plan is to take an old pair of sneakers and just cover those in foam. Shoes can be tricky...

Awesome, I'm working on the same build! :) I'm making the Bandai Meisho sandtrooper, actually, which has armor that is basically identical to the stormtrooper version. Definitely check out Punished Props. The have a youtube channel with loads of info on making costumes out of foam, including...

Very cool! Definitely interested in seeing more pics as it comes together.

KaulinD That bone charm necklace in the Bethesda store does look pretty great, especially with all that detail. For a handmade metal piece, the price actually isn't too bad! I don't know if I'd attempt anything that small, but if I make more things from the Dishonored universe I'll definitely...

The Schlitzie Thanks! KaulinD Cool, I'm glad you like it! I gotta say, every time I play the new game, I see something new I want to build. :)

Jintosh thank you :) Billy the Hero I just pour the resin in at the lowest point in the mold, I think in this case the chin. Depending on how well the powder adheres to the silicone mold, I've heard sometimes this can dislodge some of the powder resulting in swirls or pour marks, but I've...

jwmbot thanks! Pepakura has worked well for me as a starting point when I'm trying get the overall geometry just right. I think of it as a step in the process, just like clay sculpting or 3D printing.

Hey folks, I have a new mask to share. It's the Overseer mask from the first Dishonored game. The new game (which is super fun!) has a different version of the mask. I may have to make that one too. :) This is what the finished mask looks like. It started as a Pepakura model which I created...

Another option is super glue with baby powder. It's what I use to fill bubbles and small holes in my resin masks. Just add baby powder to some super glue until you get a paste-like consistency, then dab it into the hole with a toothpick. You can file or sand it after it's cured, and you can even...

GhostMinion Pocko veektohr Thanks so much! I will totally be swinging this around like a crazy person next time I wear my splicer costume to a con. :D
