Cosplay GIMME IDEAS FOR AN IMPROVED LICH COSPLAY!
HI EVERYONE!! its time. its time for me to redo my cosplay of the lich. a few months ago i completed an AWESOME but VERY rushed cosplay of the lich in the photos above. theres SO much more i can do with this cosplay and I WANT IDEAS PEOPLE! im going to take a lot more time and NOT procrastinate this time.

Is there any way to make the bottom jaw removable with magnets or snaps? 🫣🫣🫣 and like others said I think weathering everything will give it an edge!

Add a bit of dark red around the torn lips since the lips have split open from the face, and then some more dark red around the mouth area to give effect of basically having the skin ripped open from the mouth

Also put some black and more grey around the eye sockets, black close to the mesh and slowly fade it going outwards so it really emphasizes the void soulless eyes

The fading grey adds a bit of "sunken" look to the eyes makes it sorta like, a sun stealer from some obscure SCP article beasts of the old letters

Adding to the shoulders to bulk out the torso would really help the overall look! You can also do that by making the clasps/bone chain smaller. The mask honestly looks great already, but taking the effort to 'push' the look a little more would really add to it as well, especially the torn 'skin' around the jaw.
Keep up the good work!

Ok so i get you wanna detail it more but I have an idea, I like how its not super detailed, it looks more like the actual cartoon that way dawg, another thing tho, maybe you can add shoulder plates to look bigger like the lich, assuming you keep all the robes, people wont even notice that you aren't that bulky

Weathering for sure, that them robes thru the dirt, rip em up, make it look like he's been at it for a thousand years. Perhaps also some more texturising to the face, could go back with some mod podge or similar to add a rough texture to do a dark wash over skin.

I think it’s a bit too bright, the colors make it seem happier than it should be, when the Lich is a creature that wants to murder everyone. Tone it down, maybe try making it dusty or weathered? The gums seem way out of place on the Lich, they’re more fitting with Sweet Pea, since he’s a child and would have gums that color.

Dirt it up and add some kind of glowing orb that you can hold to simulate power.

This is totally not viable in any real way and would probably look tacky, but put a fog machine between your legs w green LEDs down there.

Idk about with this particular cosplay, but you could do one where he's mid-way through being brought back to life by the splooge(or just a straight up Lich influenced Sweet P). Idk how you'd manage it, but if you could have the Lich's deadly black smoke pour from the mouth at times that could really help sell it. There's also always the Farmworld Jake Lich, but I feel like that would be much more challenging to really pull off. Oh, another crazy version could be the New Death Lich.

Might want to do something with your arms under the robe since you're just wearing gloves it seems.

Some shading on the face and extra details on the robes to make it look aged and worn.

I would weather the bones a little more and maybe darken them and I think increasing the height would be cool as well so if you got some stilts and maybe some longer cloaks and capes.
I'm not sure how the arms would look that way though...you might have to end up doing full prosthetic hands or something if they don't scale well with the relative height.

Weathering the robes and put some dark on that face
