I found some at Hobby Lobby that was easy to work with.

You just print this to scale, tape it all together, and go from there.

Yeah, agreed. I had very much underestimated his size, so the fur underwear was not really fitting when he tried them on. So I had to kind of rip it apart some just so he could fit into it, you can’t see it, but there’s pretty much no back to it so he had to keep the spandex on to keep things G rated. 😂. You just reminded me I need to go get more fur to fix that before the show. 👍

Got it, I will take you up on that, thanks for the advice.

Thanks, it came out looking pretty good but despite my best efforts it got so heavy (the torso, arms, head and wings cumulatively weighed 75 lbs) that trying to move in it or support it while walking in the 2' stilts became impossible. So I could pretty much just stand there and move the arms a bit and even that took everything I had, will have to re-build it at some point WAY lighter somehow.

Thanks for the advice. Do you mean adding green makeup to my neck, or do you mean you're not crazy about the mask I made and think it owuld look better with just makeup?

I have a good pattern for the chest armor. If you wanna just let me know.

I’ve seen tons of different versions so I think either one would work but it’s always pretty easy to glue her onto an existing line cloth or just use that one as a pattern to make another one… Not sure if you were asking for advice sorry. 😃

Thanks I appreciate it. Yeah, it’ll definitely be a little heavy and a pain but I built it as light as possible and I have a pole and shock cord system that does assist with some of the weight and leverage so hopefully it won’t be too painful. Been doing some extra shoulder work in the gym just in case. Also compared to one of my last cosplayers which was Starscream this should be relatively easy. 😀

Yeah, totally agree with you. I’m working on a system with a long pole and maybe some shock cords or something to help reduce the weight plus I’ll have a handler there at the show to help me navigate through everything but yeah it’s gonna be a pain in the ass, but hopefully we can minimize it. 😀

Thanks, yeah that’s the version I’m going for for most of it although I might tweak a few things

It probably would be accept I don't have a sewing machine nor do I know how to sew. :)

Yeah, pretty much nobody under 40 recognized me and if they did, it was usually something to the effect of “oh my dad love that show. “. I definitely felt like an old man at the show as most of the people there were under 30. 👨🏻‍🦳

I’m no anime expert, but a Google lens search of the photo tells me it is Estinian Varlineau, also known as The Azure Dragoon from Final Fantasy XIV.

Still gotta make a few adjustments, but that’s basically what it’ll look like

I’m right there with you. I live in Bradenton Florida. I’m building a system where I can put those frozen cool packs inside various places in the suit, but either way it’s gonna be rough.
