Note: The drop-down box isn't popping up for me (except when I go to type in "star-lord" and a bunch of Star Trek tags appear) and I'm "not allowed to create new tags" so I can't tag this as anything. Sorry!
--------
So, I've been putting off actually working on my cosplay, so I figured if I made a build thread, I might actually have the drive to do things. (This community seems really friendly and lively enough for me to actually get off my butt and do something!)
I decided I'm going to be doing the ending battle/Ravager uniform Star-Lord, along with a life-sized Rocket.
I decided to go with the Ravager outfit because the trench outfit is really daunting--and everyone else seems to be making one, I wanted to stand out.
I also plan on having a group, and I dig having matching outfits.
I haven't begun on the Ravager outfit yet, but I have started on Rocket.
He won't be a plush, per se.
He will be fully poseable, and currently, I have his body pretty much finished.
His "bones" are wire (I forget what gauge, it's very sturdy, though, I'll check when I'm home next) and the rest of his innards are foam.
I have since added a tail but I haven't taken updated pictures, yet.
I will be sculpting his hands and feet and head. The head I plan on casting in resin, and the hands and feet will cast in a sort of rubber (it's been about two months since I actually worked on him so my memory is foggy as to what exactly my plan is...)
I will also take a picture of the fur I picked out for him when I get home (which should be in a few days.) I think it's perfect, but there are parts on it that will have to be trimmed and airbrushed for his facial features. I also plan on picking up some taxidermy eyes and inner mouth for him sometime soon.
As for the Ravager outfit,
Does anyone have a good suggestion as to what fabric I should buy for this and where I could find it?
Here is a pretty high-res pic of Quill and Gamora's jackets. Any suggestions?
