Shayne and Aurox cosplay update 27th May

Damnn this looks good! Thanks for the update! Mind if i ask what the base black material is? foam?

Keeping an eye on this. Definetly want to see more.

The base material is EVA foam like gym floor mats. :slight_smile: I love the stuff. It’s so easy to use.

Thanks Poeticnova. I’m on a course this week so not sure when I will next be able to update :frowning: I have itchy fingers that want to work on this so badly!

Offtopic: Some weeks ago I saw a cool wearable mermaid tail crafted with scales from foamsheets - Did you crafted that one too? If not, I“m sorry for interrupting this topic^^

PS: How did you carve the lines? Only a carpet-knife? Its such a great technique!

If you can make this work that would be awesome. Good luck you, it is definitely quite the challenge.

No I didn’t make a mermaid tail Ganjamira though that sounds amazing!

I used a craft knife to carve the details :slight_smile:

Then nevermind this^^ I“m currently building a mermaid tail for me, always wanted such a thing :smile:

Good to know! I craft often with rubberfoam sheets, but the thicker sheets you used are hard to get here…
Can“t wait to see moer progress pictures, this is such a amazing project! :heart:

It will work jmorales20! I was unsure myself until I saw a cosplayer on facebook doing a similar sized, shaped cosplay. She posted a picture of her skeleton for it which has helped immensely.

Have you tried ebay? You can find the foam on there. Might help a little :slight_smile:

Take your time I say :slight_smile:
I can understand itching to get back to working on something, specially if it is something you love to do!

Yes I did, but thank you for he heads-up anyway! :heart: Sadly most foamplates come from the US - so there“d high tollfees when I would import them. Maybe I“m lucky someday, I stroll ebay alot for crafting materials & ideas^^
So far I stick to craft simpler things from thin rubberfoam sheets, like Athenas Aspis :blush:

Your project definately inspires me to craft bigger things in the future!

This is really fantastic stuff. A heartfelt round of applause! I always love seeing creative cosplays, and really, a community like Battleborn should be generating creativity. This game essentially stars a bunch of nerds, so it should be appealing to creative nerds, too. Certainly works for Elder Scrolls Online!

But yes, I’m really super, super impressed by this and I’m eager to see what the final Aurox looks like. Very, very well done!

Its so difficult PoeticNova but I have to think of money too. But that means that I can take my time on this. Spend time getting it right…

Ganjamira those look awesome! I’m on my phone so cant look properly but will jump on the laptop tomorrow so I can have a proper look!

And what country do you live in? UK has a selection online not sure if shipping would be better from here?

Shaman.wulf thank you much. It means a lot hearing things like that. I have posted this in a few places online and it has gotten very little attention. I’m glad Aurox is getting some love.

This is… wow! I’d love to see more of this! Do keep us updated on the progress if you can :3
