The Red Hood

[Vox]

I actually like that the helmet is on the larger side. It looks like you will better be able to find a balance between the comic-accuracy and a believability that the thing would actually protect you if you got hit.

Thx Vox. That was exactly what I was going for.

Dude that looks nice!! Are you going with lenses for the eyes?

 

[Alain Marquis]

I got myself some mesh instead. But i want to add a white sheer on it and add a bit of a black outline afterwards...

I love the look you got with the foam, and now the mask is fantastic. Very original looking :thumbsup

Very nice job.

Nice. A quick job, well made. I want to do a Red Hood sometime as well, and am leaning toward the foam method, but I had a question about Mod Podge. I have seen it at Michaels, but they were small bottles, 8 fl oz, and fairly expensive. How much does it take to seal foam for painting?

 

[Alain Marquis]

Usually just a few layers...i like it for the flex compared to PVA but if you put too many layers of it, you might be getting cracks.

Well done sir.

Thx guys....I'm happy to see that others like my red hood cosplay. I was kinda skeptic about it at first but I think it came out great
