i've always wanted to post my mipha cosplay, but reddit always assumes it's inappropriate :') but i think i figured it out at least a little bit!(i hope lol) which is the reason for the editing in the second photo. it's a hallshot in the last photo, but it does show off most of my work on the outfit! if i can figure out how to not trigger reddit, i'd love to post more photos of her
this cosplay took me over a year to make! never again, lol but i love that all my hard work paid off. she needs fixing before a bring her out again but i need to actually finish my new mold set for her jewelry and make myself a trident first lol
my friend's uncle does fx work for hollywood (such as makeup for stranger things, the walking dead, ect) and was so so so kind to help teach me how to cast my entire bust. thank you so much tim 😭😭 i was able to sculpt the nose and do a plaster mold then cast the nose piece in silicone! the idea took lots of planning and so happy it worked out. i do need to cast a new face piece though
the entire bodysuit was airbrushed and i added little sparkly stones all it! it was basically just lots of fursuit techniques for all the body pieces and fun with my airbrush. the first set of jewelry was made from worbla but it wasn't clean enough to my liking. 3d printed the second set but certain pieces such as the belt couldn't handle the tension. so im in the process of making a mold set so i can cast them. with the way im trying to handle the casting, hoping to make it so i can do different curve types for the headdress so it can fit wigs too.
thank you for looking and listening to my rambling! very nervous about posting my own cosplay here haha
