[cillian117]

So I'm 12 days in and I am happy enough, just decided to post to motivate people and if anyone has any advice on what I should do to help bring this creation to life! still need to engrave and detail btw.

Keep up the good work guys!!!

Daaannnngggggg. That is some nice looking foamsmithing.

 

[Shadowshail]

Im not a foamsmith yet so i cant offer any real help except to keep on trucking on! It looks fantastic! Cant wait to see the end product.

Absolutely astounding work! Your seam work is extremely clean as well. Do you have a planned debut convention/event for this costume?

 

[cillian117]

No plans yet for the debut, I live in Ireland so there isn't many cons to show off the work but I might make a trip abroad someday

I think it's great, Only thing I can offer would and that would make it really come to life is going to be to seal coat it and give it a good paint job.

Thanks!!!!

Been wondering if I should make an under suit to make it seem more clean and seamless

Small update working on a prop for it as I am posting this

Coming along nicely , hoping to have fabrication done in the next 2 weeks!!

That looks legendary! Great work! I need more!!

THat is looking real good!

 

[cillian117]

So I guess this is a long awaited update. Apologies for taking so long guys but I'm near the painting and sealing phase. I done a test fit today and actually realised how big doomslayer is.

All that remains is the boots, gloves, thighs and details

That looks so awesome! Out of curiosity, where did you get the templates for it? Or did you make them yourself?

I managed to get some templates but the had no detail. As a result I had ti engrave all the details and improvise a lot of them.

huge question, are you going to have a speaker built in somewhere tat blasts the soundtracks?

I never thought of that but it sounds like such a good idea. I might do that if it ok with you ?

Yeah haha it would be relatively easy if you find a bluetooth speaker haha you going to have a super shotty too?
