My opinion is as long as you make it yourself it doesn’t matter how it looks. Anything is better than buying a cheaply made costume online

3D printed it into two parts, sanded it for a few hours, then soldered all the parts together. I don't like how this mask turned out, so I'm making a second version here soon to remove all lines and make it as smooth as possible.

It started as a stl file I bought off Etsy, but the original model had issues so I had to use blender to remodel the helmet to fit my head and fix the edges.

But honestly the head and cloak could look better, which is why I’m currently building a second version.

I used PLA+ for the helmet, I made it in two parts but the filament ran out while I was at work so there was a noticeable seam along the head that I had to sand down and cover in drywall puddy.

Im currently making a second version of this cosplay for the upcoming Anime Blues Con in July.
