-----------------------------------

Whelp, it had to be done. I love the game, I love the character, and I love cosplay. This was a labour of love and hot glue. My first time using worbla, my first time making an entire costume myself, and my first time doing any serious amount of weathering.

All of the armour is foam base with worbla on top. Various foams were used including EVA mats and craft foam. I used the majority of an XL sheet of worbla on this and the still uncompleted Cael Hammer (it will be coming out at PAX Aus 2014).

The rest of the outfit is basically from my wardrobe. The shirt and pants are just simple black tight things, the shoes I bought online for cheap and weathered heavily, and the scarf is just a square of red cloth with a wire in it to keep it posed.

The weathering was easily the most fun and most time consuming part of this costume. The rope and cog on the backplate in particular. I used black and silver acrylic paint to add dirt marks and bashed edges to give the appearance of properly worn in armour. The shoulder in particular looks like it's taken a heavy beating.

All the armour is held on by either elastic straps with velcro or copious amounts of hot glue constantly reapplied on the day as the velcro was breaking. The entire strap system will be re-done for later wears as it's currently extremely fragile and didn't last more than 30 minutes between each fixing.
