Re: Cobra Commander (Krake) Almost Done! Aug 23.

You guys don't know what a pain in the ass it was to get this cape done!
But I made it happen.

And that's it till Baltimore Comic-con I think...

Maybe someday I'll be at D*Con or SDCC...

A little shameless plug! I got my dual holster in...Close enough I say. Sad, no one will really see them behind the cape.

I have seen the problem areas with the outfit after going to B-more Comic-con. The collar hardly ever appeared and the cape wasn't staying in place.

Wow! Incredible work!

Re: Cobra Commander (Krake) Baltimore Bound Sept.8th!

Thanks spylocke...Wreckd and Hyper did a fantastic job.

I do plan on tweaking the outfit and eventually creating my own armor from clay and cardboard....I have a template and just need to get it around my body...

I think the Batman Begins Nomex Armor is a good base for your chest. I've been tracking this thread so I'm excited to see this project evolve.

Shameless self-plug!

Re: Cobra Commander (Krake)...Upgrades in Progress...

OK...so I observed some videos of people using soft fabric paint on shirts with a sponge and light dabs of the paint on the clothing.

Hopefully this works on my Cordura shirt! I also planned on heating some foam pieces in the oven and curving them to the shape of my neck so it could act as a collar....Wish me luck!
