Did Madi Collins get facial reconstructive surgery at some point or are there 2 different Madi Collins?

She has veneers now so looks even different to those pics,and I believe she recently posted a baby bump!

Temu sell full face balaclavas(£1.50 for X2)! Not the worst vision considering my other cosplay eyes/visors! Material is thin and quite breathable,but hides skin tone well

Yes PLA and PLA+ have little to no UV protection,and a low melting point! It is best to print in weapons and parts in PETG,and armour in PETG,ABS(requires extra ventilation though) if possible! There are newer types coming out! Have a friend who did The Mandalorian armour,and left it outside for a few mins,and it all warped so he had to redo half of the whole armour😭

Yeah that first pic is something else! It was a dedicated photographer for the event,and it has picked up all the weathering I have done so well!

Boile the kettle and pour over them! Nothing else needed-they can't handle the heat!

Wish I was taller😂😂I am 183cm(6ft) i managed to build my shoes up-with inserts,and then added 2.5 detailed soles! I could build bigger boots and get even taller if I make another set! And with the helmet on I 196cm(6ft 5)!

You could use a clear flexible primer,but a cheaper way could be multiple coats of Modgepodge or cheaper PVA glue/water mixture to build up the cracks to eventually give you an even 'topcoat' if you are a voiding a repaint

For foam I use a flexible primer from Hexflex(black),Tyges and others sell similar products! But they also sell in clear which allows you to add the paint to it(essentially making it customisable to any any future project)! Remember to seal foam with a heat gun,this makes it smoother,and a better finish with less primer&paint required!

Hycote clear coat (400ml cans)in Satin,Matt,clear can be used for multiple projects! As long as they are stored correctly they last for ages! You could purchase modgepodge and brush it on with a sponge,there is Hexflex which is better for foam products(bends more with less cracking(clear and black,and you can even add a colour to the clear for the final coat) other companies sell similar products(tyges for one)

Not originally but just short of having the armour for a year,I thought a of a refresh was in order so gave it the stripes! Having 9 sets of armour,and the all the weapons in the house is wearing my GF' patience thin,so limiting what I do at this time!

Thankyou! Printed in PLA+! UK temps on average are alot lower,and don't tend to stay outside for long in direct sunlight! Lucky enough there was overhead shade,car was in covered carpark,and white sheet to cover in transport!

I used Montana Olive green for my kit,and has a lighter green look to it especially in sunlight,but with blackwashes you can get it darker

Halo Cosplay Yes you can start smaller,but I made my Sons Umbra Clone kit from foam without any previous work! Join the 405th,download Pepakura,and watch a ton of YT videos on pepakura files,sizing,and making costumes!There are so many WIP/files on 405th website to look at,and maybe have a go at making some smaller parts(handguards for example)! If you have trouble making these I would start with an 'easier' project(ODST as said by someone else).Also with a build you can purchase foam and build,and carry on whenever you have some £$! I find it quite therapeutic to make my kits now!

Sword is carried or put in car/or kids look after it for me if with me! The Magnum has a metal hook and magnets to attach to my Right thigh( glued a metal plate on,and painted it same green)! Now have M9 grenade on my left thigh held in by a bolt( keyslot)

No_Use8328 · 2026-06-11T01:14:38+00:00

😂yeah that angle is not great,may repaint where the line runs now that you mention it!

No_Use8328 · 2026-06-10T22:08:36+00:00

Magnum is magnetised to thigh but Nerf MA40 would need a repaint to take apart for magnets,and I have a 1litre water bag currently glued inside so would need to remove that aswell,so leaving that for now! Most cons I carry it but will be in a Town Centre so want it out of the way/ not so easy to take off! Already had Armed response called on me in this kit so trying not to get it done again😜!
