Painting and Life

I almost completely forgot about this blog. It's just what I needed to get a little kick into my cosplay work. I've had San's mask sitting on my dresser for over nine months now (about three months until Con!) and I decided to dust it off and paint it tonight.

It will definitely take a couple of layers of red to get a solid coat. Then I'll still have to do that yellow and black. Shouldn't be too hard, right? Right.

I've recently come across a new (to me) and exciting way to make armor, etc. Thermo plastics are the new way to do things because it seems so easy! I've found several different ways to manipulate Wonderplex and Worbla through the Cosplaysupplies.com website and oddly Pinterest, where I first saw an armor demo. It will require a heat gun but if that's all I need, I'm super dandy with that!

Other than this wonderful discovery and my random inspiration to work on San's mask, I've just been preparing to move. Should be an exciting endeavor.
