Captain Planet: That's SushiKai's wife. I don't think she has an account here. I linked to the pictures of her in SushiKai's gallery, but I didn't know about EBK's photos. Good find.

I recently did a bit of a life-size conversion for a Team Fortress 2 photoshoot.

My prop
And again.

Is is recognizable? If not, here's the secret..

Games day, London expo, anything involving sci-fi or any con which involves everything.

Thanks for the responses, I actually found a local video game expo that is coming back and adding in a costume contest, so I'll be taking it there

Sorry, one more question. I wanted to have a voice changer box inside my helmet (you know, to sound like a space marine and not just some guy in a costume :P ), and I thought of Darth Vader. However, all I could really find was this: http://www.amazon.com/Hasbro-Darth-V...sr_1_1?ie=UTF8

Would there be some type of small box inside that I could rip out and put in my helmet, or would I just be better off finding something else?

Any suggestions would be great!

fightstar: I had commented one one of his pictures, but forgot to add it to the list. It is there now.

Crazy. Did that guy actually walk around mostly blind and on his tip toes for most of that convention? Props for dedication, if so.

Also, SvK, did my Herald of Chaos costume get overlooked for the OP or am I just missing some essential criteria for consideration?

Leadmill · 12-16-2009, 06:53 PM

I will eventually get around to uploaded my Praetorian Sergeant. Photographer is taking ages getting my pics sorted :/

The only essential criterion is that I know about your costume, so I've added you to the list. Your chainswords are big and scary! What is written on the banner?

A slightly modified, horribly bastardized, latinized version of "Oh Come All Ye Faithful."

Thanks so much for including my harlequins inn your list.
my other dream is to do freebooter orks some day

Yeah, the Tau Fire Warrior was at London expo, it was really impressive, and kudos to him for figuring out how to walk in high heels... without heels XD

As for my Dire Avenger Exarch, any ideas for the undersuit and how to attach the armour plates to it? Obviously it needs to be skintight, as I don't want the armour plates shifting. They need to look like an interlocking suit of aspect armour, not armour hanging off of the undersuit ^^;

Would like to ask for mine to be added to the list please

This is where it all started:

Sisters of Battle costume construction

Here is where I picked it up in mid-2009 (completed in early Dec 2009):
The Making of a Sisters of Battle Costume

Here are the beauty shots

Thanks!

This is an awesome pattern! Unfortunately it doesn't come with any folding instructions. Any chance someone know where to get the instructions?

You're better off with something like this:

Some other stuff at that site may be of interest to you too.

SvK · 02-13-2010, 05:38 PM

For some reason I'm unable to edit my post that lists all the costumes, but that Sister of Battle looks great. Good job, all of you.
