Hello everyone, ever since I saw tasm back when it first came out I absolutely loved the new suit, and now being older and having the opportunity to make my own I wanted to post about the process.
So with this suit I will be using the McLean patter and will be editing it to make vectors for screen printing. I already sized it to my size( if you guys need help you guys ca watch Johnny Michels YouTube to see how to resize the McLean files he does a really good job explaining it and has really good cosplay content) after that I started with the honeycomb pattern for the red section and printed most of it.
It took me so long to fix and arrange it. Once I am done with all the red I am going to be moving on to the blue shading under the red, the webs, spider embelms and the blue section, so for now this is all I have, I am also working on the TASM 2 suit and no way home upgraded suit which I have posted as well! I will have updates very soon!
*UPDATE
Sorry if I haven’t been updating sooner but I just finished printing all the vectors and willl now be moving on to screen printing and dying the blue fabric for the suit since I couldn’t find the color I wanted.
I will be posting some updates tomorrow as I am screen printing and dyeing the fabric!
*UPDATE
Hey guys just wanted to update you guys on todays progress, I have started to screen print as I previously mentioned and have started with some test prints to get the ink right here are some pics
i will do one more test to fix some imperfections.
*UPDATE*
Finally got to a point we’re I like how the ink and the puff looks good!! Took about three attempts but I finally got some good results!
*UPDATE*
Shoes just arrived!! From a shoe perspective it’s a very detailed and well made shoe by ASICS that I don’t even want to cut it. I will bring more updates Monday on the blue fabric and more screen printing updates
*UPDATE*
Just checking in, wanted to say that I have screen printed more of the red pieces and fixed the ink formula and got down the print technique. Also the blue fabric dyed near perfect, I really like how the blue came out.
also for the muscle shading on the blue sections I’m thinking of airbrushing it instead of screen printing it on.
*UPDATE*
I finally finished screen printing the fabric!! Now it’s time to sew!
