Judge fear

[gothic]

got side tracked from the helmet while waiting to get all the filler so I completed the teleport device, there is only one semi clear pic of this so I used some artistic licence lol.



I made it green based as the dark judges armour and gadgets often match the street judges, I also made it look dirty and aged to match the rest of the suit

 

[gothic]

finished two more elements, first being the knee pads gave them a beat up dirty look.



also finished the dimension jump globe, from the comic i have no idea if its clear with black highlights or black with white highlights ? i went for black looked better.



i have sort of started on the helmet, im taking my time as its the cherry on the cake regarding this suit build so i don't wanna rush it.

I've been watching this, looking forward to even more updates when you have time.

L~

 

[gothic]

irony is that at the moment i have the time but not the money so i do little low cost bits so that when i have the money and not the time most of it should be done i hope :wacko weird logic i know lol

 

[gothic]

been working on the belt mounted shrunken head above as I bought it

 

[gothic]

I removed the neck section and the back of the head then primed it and gave it a base coat.

 

[gothic]

belt mounting strap mounted on foam as head is hollow

 

[gothic]

these were the feet I bought, i de-constructed them and kept the uppers then I will re-attach them to surf/divers neoprene boots.

That is exactly what I intended doing for the mini Judge Death i'm building for my Son. I'm also using a set of childs Dementor hands for him but they sell adult sizes too

[gothic]

cool, I am going to be using these ones as there only fronted so I wont get sweaty hands lol I am going to use a Warhammer 40,000 ork paint job on the face mask, hands, feet and shrunken head.



will be cool to have the four dark judges at a con one day.

 

[gothic]

another project started is the face mask based on the comic



I want to try an achieve a look similar to http://xtrickortreat.tumblr.com/post/125125002303/gaze-into-the-face-of-fearrrr-judge-fear-cosplay



I bought a cheap Halloween mask and have ordered 24 eye balls and I will add them and build up areas with latex, the circles with numbers are rough points where the eyes will be placed

gothic, WOW this build is looking great!

I haven't been on here in so long I feel obligated to mention what I'm doing in the Dredd forum. haha. I was working on a Dredd 2012 female judge suit (my first build) in 2013, but scrapped/sold it all off early 2014. Turns out I'm a bit crazy about screen accuracy and that equals a lot of money when it comes to the Dredd 2012 getup! I've learned so much more since then and recently had the idea to do a comic Judge. Since there are so many variations in the illustrations over the years it gives a lot more freedom on the build.

Glad I came to check things out here, can't wait to see what you post next. How long have you been working with EVA foam? - Those shoulders, knee pads, etc look so good, from foam detailing to paint. Are you planning on having this done for a certain event like Halloween or a con?

 

[gothic]

Thanks HeyLetsRock, its my first time using EVA foam I watched a lot of YouTube tutorials then bought a pack of floor mats and practiced on a few before making those ones. The suit is for a con what one will depend on when I finish it. Its my first build and a first in costume as I am normally the guy asking for pics with other cosplayers.
look forward to your build there are some good PSI andersons classic comic version builds around to get ideas and tutorials from

shrunken head is done, its been remodelled, painted, and had new stiches on eyes and mouth plus hair and a nose ring added

 

[gothic]

with luck

+ + =


I bought twenty four one inch half circle eyes from eBay then made around a hundred latex skin and eye patches. The mask is a cheap Halloween one and xtrickortreats finished mask is my benchmark.

 

[gothic]

did anyone order an eyepuccino, making the skin patches was a newbie mistake I thought it would save time so I went back to cotton wool balls and latex



I then added more layers and gave it a sinew look then base coated it dark green gave it a green ink wash then dry brushed with a lighter green


"gaze into the face of fear"

 

[gothic]

friend pointed out that judge fear wears a slave collar that the pauldrons chains connect to :angry so another element was found, its a plastic slave collar painted brown and..............you guessed it more rust added (will the rust ever end) oh and never type slave collar into an internet search like I did ............its just wrong :facepalm


next is hands and feet colour matched to the mask, the helmet is still on hold but I did make a work base for it (almost progress :lol)

 

[gothic]

hands and feet have been paint matched to mask all I need now is to attach feet to surf/scuba style neoprene boots

 

[gothic]

been working on the name badge, its the first time I have used worbla there is no mention on the YouTube videos about chasing the smaller pieces when you turn on the heat gun :wacko but its all good.










working on the helmet bade now will give it a similar paint scheme

 

[gothic]

helmet badge all done
