I'm working on a costume (INCOMPLETE)., UPDATE 6.5, METAL... Sort of.

UPDATE 5---------------------------------
First of all I'm sorry if some images are blurry, the camera we have sucks.
Well, I guess I'll start with the newest pic of the pyramid. I'm going to start painting as soon as tomorrow, if I can get the paint:


I'm going for all black as a base color, giving it an iron look, and using the "coffee ground" method, I'm texturing it like rust. Later, the other colors will get painted on too.

Here's the great knife, after a bit MORE reinforcement with the strongest material known to man: Duct Tape.


It killed the edge near the end of the knife, but I think I can work around that (Perhaps some really nasty rust stains down there?)

I had realized today that you guys have yet to see my risers:

Old Shoes, Duct Tape, Tin cans, and Hot Glue

Of course, I'm not LEAVING them that way:

The tops of the shoes will be completley covered up with the costume fully on.

I've been walking around the house with those shoes on all day to get used to walking in them. I'm pretty good at it now .

Oh, and for those wondering, Here's what I have left to do:
1. Paint the Pyramid and Great Knife
2. Stain the Apron-thing and shoes with fake blood, etc. I have a good method of making fake blood that looks rather realistic.
3. Body makeup, to make my body fit in with everything else better, this will include adjusting my skintone, adding cuts/scars, etc.

After all that, I should be done. I know what I said before, but, thinking more realistically, I expect to be 100 percent finished by mid-February, at the absolute latest.

The pyramid needs to be re-glued in some places... And the knife is nice and all, but stop swinging it around in my house.

Oh and I still think those shoes are dangerous.

aweseom man

UPDATE 6---------------------------------
I added blood to the apron thingy. The camera was being crap though, and this is the only picture I could get:


I also plan on begining painting today, and later, I might start on re-building the great knife, again.

that is awesome. I should try to perfect my Heather mason costume.

great job.

I love how both of you guys are putting a lot of time into this project by putting detail into it and everything.

Looks awesome now

looks like it's coming along well.
Keep it up

Unfortunatley I won't be able to post any more pictures until it's done, seeing as how the camera we use won't cooperate.

This looks so ****ing cool. I can't wait to see the end result.

Great work. I'm impressed.

UPDATE 6.5------------------------------
I got the camera to work! Pyramid has been painted! Well, it's got a base coat. Soon we will make it look rusty and stuff.


And if you're wondering, yes, I can see in it, although not very well. I can see well enough to walk around without running into walls.
