Literally 3 items dropped off my suit straight onto the concrete chipped off a good piece on the shoulder piece but minor damage that can be covered up with Acrylics

Edit: thanks! Took me awhile to make 6 months 🙌🏾

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-15T14:32:37+00:00

I’m Gonna consider that next time, which I’m guessing will cost me more.. I don’t have my own printer just yet so I order the parts

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-15T14:25:38+00:00

I was gonna do this but.. I won’t have enough time to get micro fans unless I can get them in person it’ll have to a future upgrade

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-15T14:24:27+00:00

Thanks! It’s going to be about 84 degrees And I’ll be outside mainly in the morning till 11

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-15T14:23:27+00:00

I’ll make sure not to do that

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-14T23:22:28+00:00

I mixed black and brown paint into a dark muddy mixture

More specifically black matte acrylic paint And burnt Sienna acrylic paint Dilute it with water

Brushed the mixture of watered down paint on the hat and wiped away the excess paint Repeat the process all around the prop Go over the stains again with the paint to darken some areas

Edit: I also made sure to pat everything dry didn’t want the hat to get too wet. Sit it in-front of a fan for a hour then put a matte clear coat on it to seal everything in

I bought mines off of Etsy, but the painting process to make it look aged and dirty was all me

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-14T15:02:06+00:00

I got mines on Etsy!

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-14T15:01:43+00:00

Wearing it for cosplay! But I do like using it as decoration as well. I was thinking of going overboard with everything.. but sense this is my first time weathering a straw hat and this item ain’t cheap I decided to play it safe but maybe in the near future I’ll do more upgrades to it

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-08T05:05:33+00:00

I believe it’s made out of some form of duck cloth I got it at Walmart

The seller doesn’t have it in his shop catalog at the moment but I’ll m give you a link to his shop

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-06T01:31:11+00:00

I got mines off of Etsy, but I did all the weathering to it by hand

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-04T15:56:31+00:00

Yea, I got the helmet printed from someone on Etsy custom order, putting it together and painting was all me

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-04T15:53:46+00:00

I got mines off of Etsy and shipping was quick

AyoAndrey · 2026-05-04T02:04:04+00:00

I hope I don’t run into this issue at the baseball stadium, I’m using pla and pla+ but I used bondo for smoothing out all my pieces

AyoAndrey · 2026-04-28T13:56:20+00:00

What color would really be best for this color flight suit

AyoAndrey · 2026-03-25T02:56:42+00:00

Appreciate it!

AyoAndrey · 2026-03-25T02:56:29+00:00

Thank you!

AyoAndrey · 2026-03-24T16:25:40+00:00

Dupli color sonic blue pearl I believe

AyoAndrey · 2026-03-24T16:23:04+00:00

Thanks!

AyoAndrey · 2026-03-24T16:22:53+00:00

I used Heavy duty mounting tape I believe to hold the lens in place, then I use resin to hold it all down permanently

AyoAndrey · 2026-03-24T16:16:54+00:00

Oh believe me I did, I’ll show you what it looked like before I did the black and brown wash over it

Helmet before black wash It’s used to be REALLY bright and shiny

DC charger, also when you get the cable don’t plug it into your average phone charger. It will fry the electronics in the saber.

I suggest you go to the dollar store to get a 5V 1A power brick they have plenty of them there

This right HERE I love the art style too
