Incredible Stuff I can Make / Dual Cosplay Swords
January 16, 2016, 07:25:59 PM
Looking for a props maker. I'm making a mega sceptile fursuit and I'd like some props to go with the suit.

I'm wanting two green swords, aka Sceptile's leaf blade. I'm granting artistic liberty for the design but they have to be green. I was thinking identical in design and light-up. I either want the blade to fully light up or the blade to be solid in color with e-wire accents along the edges (the more feasible option).

For length, I'd like the blade section to be about two feet each and the hilt to be around 8 inches.

Material can be anything, even prop foam or wood, just has to look good and be sturdy (and safe for con use). I want the blades to hold their shape should I swing them around. They won't be used to actually strike things though, just to look cool in pics.

I want them in my hand by May 25th this year or delivered in person to Fanime if you are attending.

I was thinking around $200+ shipping? I can go higher, but if so I will need to make a few largish payments (but I should be able to pay a nice chunk once I receive my current paycheck). I can also offer fursuit part trades, even a custom (toony) head. If interested in a trade, just ask and I'll send pics of my projects but I assume most would prefer cash.

I do absolutely need the deadline to be hit. Please don't take this on if you can't complete it in time or I will end up severely disappointed. I would have posted earlier but just came up with the cosplay idea recently.

Such a shame I wasn't able to get Lucario finished in time. Looked like a lot of fun.
#3
I'm from the Paradise area as well~ :D
#4
My boyfriend will be cosplaying as Ravio. :3
#5
Count me in~

Lucario for the win~

(last time he was in need of repairs but he should be set this time)
#6
On Saturday I was Lucario from Pokemon. (then I let my boyfriend wear the suit later int he day but either way someone was wearing it on Saturday. :P)

This is a pic of it with it's old head but I swapped them out this year. I'll probably swap them out again next year. XP

Four is a good gathering time, but I think eating should be later. I need time to remove my costume and prep. XP If push comes to shove I can parade around before the gathering rather than after but I'd rather not eat in my costume, though I totally could. XD

Yeah, looks like I'm definately going as Lucario. XP I don't have the funds or time to finish my other suit. Darn. (It was going to be Yvetail by the way. :P)

@gary925- Now that my funding has been cleared I most likely will got to the naruto gathering as well. XD (I just have to order a few things and finish my cloak. XD)

Lol, Cool. :) Im Probably Not Dressing For The Naruto Gathering Now, But Im Still Gonna Try To Stop By And See.it.

I might stop by and see it if I don't get my cloak done. :3

I posted this elsewhere, but figured I'd post it here as well:

I'm seeking two spotters. :3

One for a few hours Saturday and maybe one for a few hours on Sunday.

On Saturday I shall be debuting my new Pokemon fursuit (I don't want to give too much away but it's going to be one of the new guys~)- if I get it done in time- and will be attending the gathering in it. I want to hang out with some other people for photo ops afterwards. Another pokemon cosplayer would be awesome but isn't required.

On Sunday (or another day, not permanently decided yet) I'll be wearing my Lucario fursuit. It'd be wicked awesome if my spotter would have a Sir Aaron or Riley cosplay~ :D

I can basically walk around without help (as the visibility in both is pretty good) but I was thinking hanging out with someone or a group of people would be much more fun (and easier for answering questions because I don't like to talk in suit). Also, my picture is going to be taken a lot. (I mean A LOT, I wore Lucario last year and it took forever to get from one place to another) This is why it'd be best if my spotter(s) will be dressed as a pokemon character so he/she could join in without getting too bored. :3 (it also won't be for the whole day. Maybe just 2-3 hours tops, unless both of us are having too much fun demanding everyone's attention~)

That would be sooo epic!!! :D I'd love to on that Saturday when I'll be my Umbreon Ginjika. :)

Ok, then, I'll look out for you at the gathering. X3

Maybe enough red food coloring mixed with syrup? It dries pretty convincingly and is pretty cheap.

I would have never thought of that. Poked around searches for syrup blood and I've seen people say it really does a convincing work. I'm surprised I didn't see those ideas when I initially searched. Thanks!

You're welcome. :3

I only learned about it when one of my friends was applying it for her costume. (it was one of the once with blood dripping from the mouth. That would have tasted dreadful if it was legit fake blood. YUCK!)

I'd prefer Sunday. :3

If so I can go as Lucario~

(I plan to go as another pokemon to the other gathering~)

i'm looking forward to this years fanime and i want to cosplay forsure this year butt huge problem...idk what to be   :-[ can anyone help me out?

i'm 5' 6" 17 and male any suggestions?

also if anyone wants to do a group cosplay thing i'm up for that

Thank You So Much!!

If you can pull off one of the characters correctly and want -possibly- lots of attention from girls (both fans and cosplayers) you can try one of the guys from Hetalia. ;D *hint**hint*

*ahem* However, it'd be more helpful if you posted your favorite anime and such. :3

I'd love to go as "masked Marth" but I doubt I'll have the extra fundings for it this year. D:

Next year for sure though. ;3
#19
Pizza sounds nice. :3

I'd prefer at night so I have time to get out of my costume though. XP (eating in fursuits is NOT easy, lol)
#20
I might be coming as Itachi. :3 (If I get my cloak and wig by then... I need a wig now. XP)

If in time: as Akatsuki member
If not: Maybe I'll throw together one of his other looks
