Day 38 Steve/Tony art plus IRON MAN COSTUME!

[tripperfunster]

Okay, it's not a costume per se, but I started on the helmet. For the record, I hate you accioslash.
Done with foam and a glue gun so far. It doesn't quite fit together yet because I have to paint the red and gold separately and don't want to glue them yet. I also had to put in a velcro closure because MY SON'S HEAD IS BIGGER THAN MINE! The helmet fits me (tightly) but won't even go on his giant pumpkin. ;)





Any and all credit for this thing turning out halfway decent is given to the internet, primarily xrobots.uk and the rpf costume site. Man, is there ANYTHING you can't find on the internet? I swear to god there is no less than 34985-3409284039583059 videos and sites on how to make an Iron Man costume. Huh! Who knew you could search for something that wasn't porn? (although, would it qualify if I make hubby wear this during sex when it's finished????)

And now more fluffy Steve/Tony art.

Aw for the art. ^_^ Kind reminds me of Archie comics more than the style you've been doing as of late.

But DUDE. That helmet rocks! No matter where you got the pattern and whatnot, cutting that out and putting it back together must take skillz. I'm impressed.

I'm currently set to cosplay Darkwing Duck in a couple months, and I have no idea how to put that together.

Thanks! Yeah, the colour on this is 100% flat. No shadows or highlights. (aside from the crosshatching).

As for the costume, try this site: http://www.therpf.com/replica-movie-costumes/

I learned everything I know for the helmet there. Well, there and here: http://www.xrobots.co.uk/
