Hello I need some help trying to improve on my cosplay
I cosplay as Mr Silver from Treasure Planet and I have been trying for ages to get it as accurate as possible
If anyone remembers the movie, he is a cyborg and has moving cogs on the side of his head
He also has a cyborg arm
Currently I just have a Full Metal Alchemist arm (looks horrible) and a piece of air conditioning ducting on the top of my arm, people still love it, and I am recognisable but it doesn’t feel right
I have knights gauntlets but they are way to bulky,
I have Aspergers/Autism, I have very poor build skills, and I am very set in my ways/routine wise
I really want to make this work, but don’t know how. There is a person I found on Facebook, his name is Point Ears Creative Studio, who ages ago made this amazing head/eyepiece covered in cogs all moving and it looked amazing, but I certainly don’t have the budget/time or a 3D printer
If anything I try to keep things simple, ideally I am looking for a battery operated small servo, something I can turn on and off with a switch, attach cogs to it and try to replicate it that way, or even go so far as an old erector set, or kids Lego, or a kids robot building kit, or even a model trains wheels, just something that looks like the movie did, and then hope I can find a way of running the cords down my back, and attaching it somehow to the side of my head, not something as complex as a arduino or coding, soldering or anything like that, I don’t have the patience time or money
I also want to try and find a good looking cyborg arm, but don’t know where to start
If anyone remembers the film or could kindly give some advice that would be very much appreciated
Thanks
