TASM 2 Suit.

You could try to make your own diy face shell with plaster bandages. It's like the thing that they use for arm and leg casts. You could make the basic shape of the face shell with cardboard or something hard, then cover it with plastic and then apply the plaster bandages onto there. Three or four layers should be enough

What type of plastic? Like plastic wrap for covering food or such?

Yup, even a thin plastic bag will do

Ok sounds good, if I have time I will try to do it before con Friday. I hope I can find time tomorrow, but I am running a Pokemon tournament so I don't know if I will, haha! but thank you!

 

[Casey2124]

What do you attach soles with? E6000 glue?

 

[Snakenator9]

I used E6000 on my TASM1 shoes and it is holding very well after a couple months. I have also heard of using shoe goo instead, but I think either work fine. And let's see some pics!!

 

[Casey2124]

I used E6000.

One of my favorite pictures I took today.

Will it hurt to put puffy paint over slick paint?

 

[Casey2124]

Is there anyway to remove the lenses? I believe they were put up way to high. What do y'all think? (This is with no face shell.)

 

[Casey2124]

Any tips or anything? Haha!

I think the lenses are rotated inwards too much.In my opinion,the top should point diagonally outwards.
The suit itself looks good,dude

That's exactly what I think one of the top corners actually popped off last night, but there is a giant thing of super glue right there. So I am thinking about seeing if I can figure a way to cover up the glue marks and just take them off carefully

 

[Casey2124]

Hey guys. So is there any paint I can use on the suit? I moved the lenses now there is a spot of super glue and it is pretty big. I need to know ASAP as I have a con tomorrow!

 

[George]

I wouldn't puff paint the costume.Just replace the lenses by plastic ones.
My 2 cents.

No, not puff paint haha. Like just regular paint that would match the suit. They I am moving the tops down a little since they were way too high.

 

[Casey2124]

So, I fixed the eyes. Im also using a toy mask for the face shell for now. Con starts tomorrow. Ill be cosplaying on Saturday. Thoughts?

 

[George]

Suit looks good,but like I said: I would probably replace the eyes for lenses
Have fun at the con,C !
