For Weapons I have a Larp cutlass and a Nerf gun I painted dull black.
Maybe I'll do something more elaborate in the future, but sadly I don't have the time right now.

Well went to AwesomeCon in DC with my suit this weekend. I actually fell over in it going to craftsmanship judging and through a miracle or over engineering the armor was not damaged to badly. Took 3 people to get me back up though. Only one bad picture right now, once I get the damage fixed up I'll do a proper photo shoot with the whole armor, helmet and all. I won a judges award at the cosplay contest though, so everything ended well despite my really sore shoulders from wearing it for 4 hours. Need to add some more padding into the armor where it sits on my shoulders.

Looking good! I tried the spray glue also and I ended up regluing after it began to peel up. That's when I switched to the contact cement.

The clear spray paint is normally referred to as a clear varnish or an enamel coat.

Have you thought of any weapons to go along with it?

I first put a layer of wood glue on the Chestplate to make it more durable and to give it a smoother surface.
Turns out, you should keep the thing in the shape you want to have while the glue dries (which I didn't), otherwise it cracks (which it did).
Then i put a coat of primer on it and because I already liked the colour of it I just sprayed some silver from a distance
to give it this more mettalic look.
For the last thing neither my school english, nore google is any help. Basically Its a clear spray paint that protects the underlying layers from rubbing of or getting wet.

I've also put some more stuff on the hat and the collar.

I used some kind of spray-on adhesive and applied it generously to the general area, where I wanted the pieces.
After that had dried, I used some all-purpose glue on the parts, that didn't stick together.

The Inquisition / Lord Inquisitor Disco - Pimp slapping the forces of Chaos

« Last post by Skrall on June 14, 2017, 05:09:13 PM »

Afternoon kiddlywinks,

Time for my new costume, Lord inquisitor Disco.

I'm in the early stages, need to do some filling then I can progress.






I've got the rest of the body plate to finish, detailing and filling.

Next up is the other leg and knees. Once i have those ready and filled i'll need to do the detailing on them. Then I think i'll do the thighs, work out how i'm wearing the legs.

Bit of an odd process as i'm taking the old Inquisitor game book cover and taking it down three notches into the realms of "could i get drunk in this without causing an "incident"

-Lord Inquisitor Disco.
