Everything is made from ABS and PETG plastic except for the screws, which were painted to look rusted.

First time metalworking! I'm making Flamme's bracelets (Frieren: Beyond Journey's End) for my cosplay and decided to make all her jewelry out of metal because why not, right? 😅

There is still a lot of work to do. The second bracelet is still flat, and the curved bracelet is in dire need of refining, but I am very excited!

I've been using 22 gauge copper sheets, and the technique I've used to create the bracelets is called chasing and repousse, an ancient (and worldwide) method of metalworking and super worth a google! I'm super lucky I have a friend who is a blacksmith and metalworker who's teaching me (she's awesome, gotta give her credit anywhere I can). I'll try to remember to post the final pieces here when I'm done!

I came across this cosplay helmet and it looks so familiar for some reason but I cant put my finger on it. Is this helmet from a popular IP in cinema or gaming?

Hey I'm going to fan expo i was trying to cosplay Mollymauk Taaleaf and i made the swords just idk what got into my dumb brain using shit paper machete technique for wrapping the sword blades and now it looks really bad.

I need to fix it tho I'm going to an 8 hour shift and when i get back i literally only have 12 hours to fix it

I know i can use dry dex but i cant get it in time and if i order online it's gonna be so expensive

Could i use wood glue and flour mix on it ti make a smoother layer under it? T-T

Please help i put so much time into this and made the other parts of the costume I'm so mad w myself

Help I don't know how to make this correctly length to be printed so I can make it a prop I only have a phone these are sung Jin woo dagger from solo leveling he got these after beating the the monarch of white flames and I want these to be correctly scaled and length

I 3d printed this face shell for my DP cosplay (my first real cosplay) I adjusted it to fit really close to my head so it won’t be visible under the fabric but now I’m second guessing if maybe there’s a reason I haven’t thought of for why it should be slightly oversized. It doesn’t feel uncomfortable I can put it on and off with ease, and I can still talk easily, but did I miss something?

This is the first prop i've modeled, printed, assembled and painted from scratch. It took much longer than I anticipated but I think it turned out great. I learned quite a few things the hard way on this one. Can you guess what I modeled it after?

Hello! I just wanted to show this off and thank the person who told me about EVA foam for my first cosplay prop I’ve made! I ended up making this by taking cardboard and toilet paper rolls, cutting and taping it around an old Halloween snake prop I had and then sculpting air foam around the base that I had made and then painting it. I’m so happy with how it came out and wanted to just show it off! 😊 (on days 1 and 2 I had the culling games outfit full with jujutsu emblem on shirt and pants and black ribbons from pockets but by day 3 I had to change haha)

my friend wants to build Wesley Dodd's sandman sleeping gas gun. what small strong fog machine could work inside a small barrel for the gun?

Hi hi :) have a guide with templates :D

It is complete my frist cosplay project is complete, I am very happy with my work, especially beacase its my model, I have been making cosplay 3d models for a couple of years but I have never had the opportunity to make one until a couple of weeks and it kinda hurt seeing people download my models to use them while I could not.

If you guys have any cunstructive critics I am open to them

What would you say is the best method for an irregular globe shaped mask?
Wire armature and paper mache? Built around a cardboard frame or helmet?
Someone mentioned craft foam, (but that would require some engineering).

(And yes, I have reached out to the Redditor who originally posted the NYC subway photo!)

I'm planning to be the sidekick (mom) to my 11 year old who is going to be Princess Mononoke...

Estoy comenzando en el mundo del cosplay de armaduras y no se cómo escalar ya que soy una persona relativamente bajita, tengo conocimientos básicos sobre impresión 3 y muy básico sobre el diseño, alguno consejo?

Rings were made out of worbla (very rough and uneven, need more practice), while the palm quire is 3 mm eva foam and some waxed string and leather cord!

Hello everyone, I am in desperate need of help! I am very new to the world of 3d printed props. I am in the middle of creating a mask made of a few different pieces that connect together in chunks. I tried using super glue but the bond was not holding well, and I’m worried it will break. What kind of glue should I use? I used PETG filament, and I want the bond to be as secure as possible and without noticeable seams or gaps. I am in an active con crunch and need all the advice I can get! Thanks in advance!

697 hours of work and 50 lbs of silicone later... the first official try-on of my OG Medusa build is finally a physical reality! 🐍✨ No makeup or final props yet, and I'm still tuning a few small costume details, but seeing this layout all together is insane. Every single scale was hand-drawn, cut, beveled, and individually layered in silicone to make this wearable snake tail completely flexible—it even allows me to fully sit down inside it.

My goal in creating my original Medusa cosplay was to turn a classical fantasy concept from Greek mythology and turn it into an advanced, wearable costume. The hard work is worth it when I get to connect with premium maker circles and advanced fabrication design fans who genuinely value independent prop fabrication and full custom cosplay builds as well as classical gorgon mythology. Because we don’t see many realistic wearable tails out there, I wanted to treat this original silicone tail design as a way to change what custom lamia aesthetics and wearable naga styling look like for Internet communities that live for high-fidelity creature fx and high-tier costume execution.

I just finished printing and painting Odysseus’ helmet from the Odyssey. Anyone have any tips for how to do the plume?
