Here is the helmet part of the Legion Commander cosplay I'm working on. I
really liked how this one turned out. Its a bit heavy, so I might add a
strap when I go to the con.
 |
| The pattern. Its kind of like those types of world maps that are a flattened sphere. |
 |
| Glued and taped together. |
 |
| Cut out the face opening. |
 |
Added the second part
|
 |
| This part was a real pain. Yes, it is a broom, but I cut it a bit so it would curve to the wood base. |
 |
| Both sides all glued and nailed down. |
 |
| Added the wood and broom part on and ready to add those wings. |
 |
| After I attached these, I was so happy because it was actually starting to look awesome and cool |
 |
| Getting ready for that paint job. And my right hand man makes an appearance! |
 |
| So shiny. Used a mixed of bronze and gold paint. |
 |
| Finished! Those wings are pretty tall. Luckily, I still have an inch or 2 when I walk through doors. |
LOL those bristles
ReplyDeleteOh my god, that's amazing, such a good cosplay of our awesome Legion Comander! I love it <3 I love cosplaying too, my last one was Mortred haha.
ReplyDeleteCan i know what material is it? Foam ? Thanks !!
Oh haha i just noticed reading it many times, foam ! How do you unite them ? I can see tape but i think that's for the very first part to put everything on it's place... what do you use? o.o
Deletehot glue. but i find its not the best thing. i'm looking for a better way.
DeleteTo glue foam i use "neoprene" glue. It's a bit expensive but it works really well.
DeleteHow the hell did you do the "red feather" part of the helmet ??? Did you use a scrubbing brush ? did you find it already curved ? Or did you curve it yourself ? if yes... how ?
Thx for the answer.
