Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Cosplay help

[TurtleJoe]

Hello members of therpf I was wondering if any of you could help me in the making of my Link costume. First off I need some advice for the hairstyle, I really want a TP Link style haircut and was curious if anyone could help me with that. Then I was also wondering if there was any Master Sword and Sheth, Hylian Shield pepakura files I could use or if I should be using something other then pepakura for these two things. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies

Well, I can say I'm the expert on the subject, but if you have the equipment and space you may want to try to make it out of wood. The sword for sure out of wood (or you can buy a replica sword online, but that's a lot of $$$'s ) and the shield a maybe out of wood, or maybe out of foam board, I may- (big maybe) be able to draft a design for a wood template, just something to go by for cutting the sword and shield out (rough outline), I'll take a quick swing around the net about pep files for it. About the hair? No clue, I'm an epic fail in that department

Im in the process of making a twilight princess shield right now. Foam, some mdf, and apoxie sculpt is your ticket to something lightweight and solid. Mine is 20 x 25. Check out the zelda project probably one of my favorite link cosplayers. He wears that wig like a champion.

Not LoZ, but I made a Sheild out of EVA, and craft foam.

Here is a nintendo pep site. They have a Link TP model that holds the sword you are looking for. Scale that or anything else up, and you have your file.
