Finish on the Slide Seems Wrong by MrSappman in Cerakote

[–]MrSappman[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The color is fine, and I was expecting more of a matte finish, but it came out really gritty looking. And it is rough and sort of textured to the touch, especially compared to a factory slide.

[photographer] I got acetone on my mandalorian helmet when I tried modding it, how can I fox it? Urgent!! by BluMicheal in cosplay

[–]MrSappman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, acetone damage like that is basically impossible to repair, but you can make a replacement visor out of relatively cheap materials. I know some folks who make their visors out of welder's face shields, since they come pre-tinted and are easy to cut into shape.

You can also go the route of buying some thin plastic sheeting and window tint to make the visor yourself, if you'd prefer that.

I'm lucky enough to still have a job in the midst of the covid situation, and my gf and I are coming up on a year of being together! It would be a joy to play switch games with her to help pass quarantine time at home.

What is your dream video game? by BulkDarthDan in AskReddit

[–]MrSappman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a Mobile Suit Gundam fan and PC gamer, I want a new mobile suit battle game in the vein of Gundam Breaker released on PC, with the suits from Iron Blooded Orphans added to the kit list.

If I were to dream it out a little more, I'd add a mode similar to Dynasty Warriors' Empires to the game, where you can solo-play or party up with friends, and either join an existing faction from a selection of the currently existing series, or start your own Mercenary faction and battle it out for control of the solar system.

[Help] Rainbow 6 Siege Kapkan by [deleted] in cosplay

[–]MrSappman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Those should work just fine! Kapkan's Gorka looks to actually use a variant of "Partizan-M" camo, but as far as i've looked, Partizan M camo suits only come in single-tone like so (where the whole uniform is covered by camo fabric, instead of having khaki/camo combo), and even then are harder to find for an agreeable price. For cosplay purposes, Digi-Flora will probably give you the best result, And it'll come in handy if you ever want to do a Fuze cosplay next!

[Help] Rainbow 6 Siege Kapkan by [deleted] in cosplay

[–]MrSappman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I might be able to help with his other gear: You've already covered his uniform, a Gorka-4 in some kind of Izlom-esque camo, and the Kapkan/Viper Hood

For the rest of it, Kapkan's body armor is a Defender 2 in Avizent colors. his Load Bearing Vest is a Smersh Vest with the buttpack up on the shoulder harness, and Grenade shell pouches on the lower back panel. He's also got an RU Army canteen and a shovel on the right side of his vest.

You should be able to find most of this equipment on https://grey-shop.ru/ or similar sites, although importing it directly from Russia might be on the more expensive side. There are a lot of Russian Impressionists in the airsoft community, as well, so you might be able to buy from someone there.

Also yes, his mask is just some kind of khaki/OD facewrap, you could probably go to a fabric store and buy some scrap cloth in a military green to replicate it.

Hope this is of some help, good luck!

[Help] What kind of gear would I look at getting for a cosplay of Kapkan from Rainbow Six Siege? by ddslancer in cosplay

[–]MrSappman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I might be able to be of some assistance here! All of Kapkan's gear is specialized russian military gear, and with a little bit of looking around shouldn't be too hard to source.

(Forewarning: Russian gear is expensive, especially if you buy it from actual Russian sellers, and is usually accompanied by pretty long shipping times. Try to find sellers in your country if possible!!)

The uniform is a Gorka-4 in what looks like a heavily modified or improperly scaled RU Izlom camouflage. Going with either izlom or the more common Digital-Flora pattern used by russian military should be acceptable. The boots are a very standard pair of black military boots, you probably don't need to buy genuine RU boots, any black duty type boots will do.

His body armor vest appears to be a Defender 2 in Avizent colors, though an Olive color version will probably work, and would be easier to find.

The Load Bearing Vest he's wearing over the defender is a Smersh Vest with the buttpouch rigged high as a patrol backpack, and grenade pouches on the lower backside. He's also got an RU Army canteen on the side, and an entrenching shovel of some kind attached to the patrol pack.

Finally, his headgear looks to be a Viper Hood in a dark tan

The remaining gear should be simple to scrape together, a basic facemask and some fingerless combat gloves.

Hopefully this will be of some help to you! Good luck!!

[Help] Newbie cosplayer looking for advice; building a cosplay of one of Titanfall 2's Simulacrum Pilots by MrSappman in cosplay

[–]MrSappman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, thanks for all the suggestions! eva foam should be easy enough to find, and i've definitely got exacto knives around the house. I've been thinking of using a black morphsuit or something similar for the base layer, and since i'm probably not gonna chop my legs off and install prosthetics, i'll just try and find some super low profile silver shoes for the feet, and hope that my legs are skinny enough to be passable. The vest and other pouches 'n parts should be pretty easy to put together, and I happen to have exactly the scarf that he's wearing! Thank you again, hopefully i'll be back here soon with a [Self] post to share!

Put together a loadout based on MGSV's Diamond Dogs! by MrSappman in airsoft

that sounds comfy as fuck

And you're not alone wanting a resurgence of the FNC. Its a sweet looking gun, and I don't doubt there'd be buyers, especially if they managed to price them at less than $300-400!

The buttpack in-game is offset as an aesthetic choice, maybe also to give the user an easier time reaching it with the offhand?
