*WIP* League of Legends Ziggs costume

[LuckyLukse]

Hey all. I am attending PAX East in March this year and am currently in the process of making my fandom of league of legends of their character Ziggs. First time using any EVA foam as well, so I bought plenty for when I mess up (Fully expect it to happen)

Anyways, if you do not know who Ziggs is, this is him.



I will be skipping on the giant bomb on his back due to not wanting to deal with the hassle of crowds and that thing strapped to me haha.

One issue I am running into is the shoulders, I have searched high and low for the past few hours on a good short tutorial on rounding simple shoulder pads that seem to bend in all directions. Any tips?

Also what do you think would be the easiest way to attach the helm to my head? I have short hair and the helmet does not fully surround my head.

Thanks a bunch!

Made part of the helm from Worbla, mae my two bombs, just need to coat in wood glue and paint =D

Got some work done again today. Shoulders, and my bombs are completely sealed. Woo!


(Close up of the helmet shaped to my head. Have to cut out spots for the goggles and cover in either more worbla for detail or crafting foam)
(going through some shoulder ideas)
(found old knee pads that had these foam inserts inside, so I cut some "detail" into them, should work nicely)
(I need to work on my hot gluing technique, but they are ready for some sealing)
