Nice work. And I doubt I have to tell you to ignore the idiots, this is the internet, after all.

Though I'm REALLY tempted to ask if you can make one of the Republic Commando helmets...
LOL dont worry i am skilled with dealing with morons , and YES i know how to make buckets , it is a lot of that origami pep file work haha i want to make a boba fett bucket real bad but yeah ... pep file , then the resins and fiberglass , putty , sanding dremeling ....all your layers of paint , for a replica it will take a while but once you are finished you have a really nice prop that you built from scratch

At least someone with artistic skill would anyway, my merits in the fine arts are... limited. I can destroy things, and I'm great at it, I don't even have to try! Putting things together, on the other hand, is definitely not one of my strong points.

Oh, and getting a bandwidth exceeded from photobucket, not sure who's end the problem is though, I don't mess with image hosting sites.

Wow...just wow, that's all I can really say. A lovely lady in fantastically made costume, no complaints from me! Those masks look frickin' amazing, btw.

I'm sorry, but this is something that's been bugging me in general for a while: Why did you go with Sexy Armor? There's far too much cleavage and skin in designs for female armor in medieval fantasy as is. Not to say you can't make the outfit sexy, but there are ways to do that without exposing tender flesh to an oncoming blade. For example, it would have worked if you'd used the same outfit, but had a layer of leather (or a leather-like substance) underneath.

Excellent work overall, though. I especially like the claw scratches on the helmet.

The dragon priest masks are pretty heavy 2 pounds , but they are also chip resistant both of them got knocked around pretty hard .... the paint will scrape off before anything else
Two pounds is pretty reasonable. I'm actually surprised it isn't more.

I've made some masks out of paper-mache, which is lighter, but obviously a lot less durable.

She's just sticking true to the game, can't fault her for that. :p

Very nice! I don't know what's more amazing -- the awesome sculpting, or the fantastic makeup job.

but you see the females of our species grow breasts ... i am assuming you have never seen those before...
You obviously don't live in Japan.


But on topic, the costume is fairly well done, Kinda reminds me of the assassins creed ones my brothers did for shits and giggles.

templar , i wanted something that can double as a bathing suit in the summer time , lol i really do not know what you want me to say to that comment actually .... i did what i did because i liked the design also without restriction to movement i can climb ... catch frogs , and well go on slides with it leaving skin open also gives me free range to make random body prosthetics like open wounds filth ... fake scaring , burns ... bite wounds ...depending on where i want to go with my character , and for the first 50 hours of real skyrim gameplay that is pretty much what my ingame character looked like ... the second i brought skyrim home as i do with every game where there is a freedom to be creative with a character ... i usually see if i can make myself ...and that was what i did played through as a nord version of me .... the scratches on the helmet were pretty fun to make , i had fun painting the projects and making them look like age hand banged metals



@ callate , i am happy it did not exceed 2 pounds since the masks hang off the front of the face , for my friend with the krosis .... we rigged something with velcro , a sort of head brace that went around the head just over the ears and another piece over the crown so the weight was evenly distributed ... he was able to push the mask up off his face and leave it on top of his head if he wanted to avoid huffing paint fumes for a bit lol ..... for my other friend we just tied the mask on his hip , i thought that looked pretty cool also , I actually love working with paper mache but i am afraid of dropping it and breaking whatever i make , i drop everything !

By the way, where you going for the "Yes, I AM about to kill you" look? Because if you were, you got it down. I should know, I've gotten it enough times xD

Edit: Well, in a good chunk of them, anyway*

I haven't, I know when someone's way out of my league lol

That and I highly doubt she lives within a 200 mile area of me anyway, so what's the point?
