thanks Shockwave, Pastry, Ancient101! hehe! another cosplayer on the way... biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

thanks Uratz! well, the head and bio was her old Scar costume that i made, i just reused it and made a big adjustment. coz we were planning to wear it on an event last week, which we didn't had a chance to come because of the new baby. but if knew that Kimbo will be out earlier than expected i should have made a new one. unsure.gif

i'm still doing the paint for the armor, the new dreads are looking good, still no paint.. sorry for the mismatched details on the head and bio, i only had limited references. when detailed pictures of Mr. Black was posted, i was already doing the paint for the head. guess we're too excited and got carried away. i'll post some pics i as soon as the baby gives us a break. cry.gif hehe!

thanks again guys!

looks great! saw it on youtube! very nice! hehe! bigthumb.gif bigthumb.gif bigthumb.gif

for the eyes you could put a lens from a cheap sunglasses or shades tinted yellow, or you can buys a yellow transparent folder on your local school supplies store put on 3 to 4 layer so your eyes are not that visible... hope that helps!

hey guys! first of all thank you for these HIRES references... when my kid saw the pics, her jaws dropped! jawdrop.gif we both totally agreed that it would be her next costume...

ok, enough about us! now for me, the new breed of predators are great, lesser armor means more movability and more speed in character, compared to the P1, P2 AVP1 and AVP2, the new predators look more menacing. with the jaw bone, the tusk and the falconer... totally wicked! everything is cool... except the head. blink.gif it looked like it had the worst face lift ever because they took the eyebrows part away and it looked like the brain is exposed... blink.gif blink.gif but i like the pattern on it's head, it's like a flame or a tribal design that is branded on the head. bigthumb.gif

but still can't wait to see it on the big screen!

weapons please! thanks again and more power!

hello,

it's been a while... right now i'm in the process of recycling my daughter's SCAR PREDATOR to make her a new predator costume MR BLACK.
it's been 2 years and my daughter has grown very dramatically. the costume doesn't fit her anymore. so i tried to salvage anything i can still use, the head and the bio. now with a few adjustments and modification i want to show you guys my work in progress...



it's still made of foam covered with contact cement...



hope you like it...

update you guys soon! more power and God bless!

THis is awesome did you use some kind of template or did you build it entriely from line of sight to build the parts?


i first measure my kid's body to estimate the size, design and plan the fitting, but during the process problems will occur and i have to build some part on the spot. wink.gif

MARAMING SALAMAT PO! THANK YOU GUYS! bigthumb.gifrolleyes.gif we really appreciate it. my kid was so happy when i told her that many people now have seen her in Voltron outfit, and most of them have a positive comments about her. she was really thrilled, she wanted me to answer all of them and say thanks... wink.gif

now it's been a while since we joined a convention, she concentrated on her school, and she'll be graduating from Kinder hopefully with honors coz she's been working her ass off since the beginning... and me, work is taking too much of my time, so i really don't have a chance to make a new costume. sad.gif

we'll be updating soon, again thank you guys and more superhero power! GOD BLESS and MABUHAY! bigthumb.gif

thanks guys! it's good to be back... hehe! rolleyes.gif

all of my creations was done with the same materials (rubber mat) and the same process. like applying emulsion before painting and stuff. this time i'm experimenting on paints. Yoshimitsu is 80% hand painted using brush. i'll try to post step by step pics as soon as posible.

for my costume plan, i'll try lay low on armored characters. i want to do an organic character, like Alien or Predalien. hopefully i can make one next year... and i know many of you can help me! hehe! bigthumb.gif

it's been a while. hehe! office works killing me. well, this costume i made for my daughter, Chii... she likes playing Tekken DR on her PSP. Yoshimitsu is one of her favorite character in the game. She first wanted to be Panda but we thought it would be a bad idea, so she became YOCHII MITSU, our very own version of Yoshimitsu... the event was held on the 30th of November, 2009. i created the costume in 10 days including the sewing of the pants... it was my first time to sew, it was fun. we even put her name on the design on the pants. hopefully i can do better next time...

here it is, we hope you like it....








i'm open to you comments and suggestions. thanks and more superhero power to all!

for more pics please see...
