That's right folks! I'm a HUGE fan of MK and have long wanted to journey into MK costuming. First up I am working on the MK1 Movie version of Scorpion. It won't be completely 100% accurate, but I will be shooting for as accurate as possible.

First up, the mask. I commissioned Fierfek to create a pep file for the mask using pics from movie screen caps, as well as screen caps of others masks. Here's my build:

My first build attempt came out WAY too big so I had to start over:

Mask assembled:

I resined the outside, then resined and used fiberglass cloth on the inside, then once that was dry I coated the outside with a 1/1 mix of Bondo and Resin, and used the bondo hardener:

Sanded smooth, and a few details added, as well as the texturing of the indentions:

More details added (seam lines and rivet holes) and primed:

A coating of Satin Black:

Then a heavy silver-wash:

Then a light misting of satin black:

Now I gave it a light black-wash, painted the indentions a copper/red color, and painted the 'rivet holes' gold, and finally gave it another very light black-wash:

Im not 100% sure where my build pics for the tabbards/belt pics haven't gotten to, but I'll post them when I find them. Anywho, here is where they are at this point:

Made from leather looking vinyl, doubled over with the seams matching the best I could gather from reference pics. The shirt is an UnderArmor spandex shirt (never though I would purposely walk out in public wearing spandex at my weight :p):

The belt is made from the same material, and attaches with velcro at the back. The pants are standard 'Gi' pants, and I deviated from the movie by getting Tabi boots, until I can track down the actual style shoes worn in the movie. One of my pant legs are not strapped in these photos, as I ran out of the material I used. Since these photos were taken I have shortened the tabbards by 3 inches, to allow the belt to ride higher:

Next up I have ordered the 'forearm pads' and will have them shortly. Once I have those painted I can call this one 'Komplete'
