So, I have a mission, to make a Megatron helm/mask and a fusion cannon, I'm getting the supplies today, and I'm hoping to finish it by tomorrow, so I can ship it to Mirai, so she can do something similar to the Megatron's formal attire by RobbySheldon. Design: 100% Materials:100% Helm:35% I'll post all of the progress pictures after I'm finished, so I can finish it faster.

Materials:100%? Damn it, I meant I knew what I'm buying! Well, my mom suggested getting felt and making it into a hat kinda thing, as well as the fact that it will be easy due to all the geometric shapes.

Like make the helm into a helm hat, then add a mask.

I'm so ditto-ing you there .... Didn't think I'd have a costume, but now thanks to Jump, I guess I will! Also realizing that since this is more human than robot (greeblies-wise) it should probably reside in the human cosplay section, rather than in full robot.

Going out tomorrow to buy all of the supplies, and going to work all day, as well as into the next day, I will make this on time. If I some how fail, I'll cry, finish it, and send it to Mirai.

I am, too! First big costuming! Luckily, my mom came up with the Idea of Felt being hardened around some kind of form, as well as the main helm base will probably be a mutilated box.

If you get it to me in time to make modifications, I'd love that. Just so I can be sure I'm going to be comfortable wearing a clean mask on under the face shield. |
I'll try. Looking up hat tutorials now.
