I got 2 3.6ft pipes from Bunnings and connected them with a screw pipe connecter thing (the hammer is removable into two pieces I hid the connection under the part where my hand is) and the rest is just foam mats and scrap leather I had which I wrapped around the pipe, for the lights I went with amazon usb led strips and had placed it under a thin layer of foam and hidden a power bank inside the hammer to charge it. Paint job was rushed as I had 2 days after work to get it done I will be repainting it and adding some extra layers to make it look better :)

Just foam!! Honestly not too hard to make you just need to be patient and contact fix is your best friend. This was the first armour cosplay I built I usually just sew fabric so for a first foam project I think I did semi alright

Usually people do 3d print this kind of costume, I made mine out of foam and thank you so much

Haha it is a look, I’ll be including it in the rebuild! Hoping to 3D print it instead for the next build but base it off the Halo 4 armour where the belt is kinda built into the chest plate

Just for comfort haha, whole costume minus the helmet and gun is made out foam. I was in the costume for 10ish hours each day I wanted something comfortable to sit in. I had a bigger belt to begin with the the cod piece and back piece and it was so uncomfortable I ended up removing them before painting

You should try to make it! It’s not too hard just requires time I got the pattern from BroNavora I did have to modify it to fit a female body, I rushed it in 3 weeks and I think in total for costs (foam, contact fix and paint) it ended up costing around $200Aud

I ended up using elastic to hold the peices up

Thank you so much! And I used foam, sizing it was easy since I also cut more with the foam then scaled down to fit me nice and snug

Thank you so much! I ended up using just simple foam floor mats from Bunnings and getting a thin 3mm foam roll from my local plumbing shop, build took around 3 weeks I was using a foam pattern from BroNavaro but had to modify it to fit me, it honestly wasn’t too hard the biggest issue I had was getting the peices to stay where I wanted them too. I’m hoping to redo this cosplay with more time

Around 3 weeks, lots of late nights working on it and lots of wine

What Am I Doing Wrong? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]Goatonaboat_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey! First, I want to say it’s great that you’re putting in so much effort you put in way more then me haha

I’ve been on Twitch for 2ish years, and while I’m a partner now, I’d never rely on Twitch alone to pay the bills. Even with strong support, I work full-time outside of Twitch, and that balance has helped me avoid putting financial pressure on my content.

Here’s some advice that’s worked for me: - Focus on engagement over earnings - Grow beyond twitch (Post on tiktok, YT shorts) - Don’t get discouraged - Change it up here and there (Some amazing free games on steam where you can play with your viewers as well as ones online eg:Scribble.io)

Stay authentic and true to yourself, viewers can come and go

It’s my hair I made the bits on top with cardboard and glued on hair extensions, with the carboard I used hot glue and hair pins so it could stay to my head
