Varian Cosplay - Leg Armor Update 2

It took all weekend, but I finished the second greave for Varian Wrynn. :)

Now this is a cool video...

Varian Wrynn Cosplay - Belt Buckle

More progress was made on Varian's belt over the weekend. Once the priming is done I'll do some work on some of the seams that look a little sloppy right now.

Cosplay Who?

I am slowly gathering together the things I'll need to do a decent cosplay of Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor from Season 12 of the classic Doctor Who TV series. Actually, the costume will be a bit of a hybrid of Seasons 12 and 13, I really want something fun to wear that I can put on easily by myself.

The Varian Wrynn costume is going to take at least one, possibly two assistants to put on.

Varian Wrynn Cosplay - Leg Armor Update

The finished right greave for Varian Wrynn. It is constructed of Wonderflex, Craft Foam and the resin cast lion head.

Now it is time to prime it. I like to use Gesso to prepare the Wonderflex surface. Not only does paint stick very well, the the Gesso also easily fills in the minor surface flaws.

Varian Wrynn Cosplay - Knee Cover

After filling in the hollow part of the lush cast with expanding foam, I glued the resin lion head to some cardstock. Then I used craft foam to build up the outside edge of what would become the knee plate of the leg armor.
Next, I'll cover the foam with wonderflex so it can be attached to the wonderflex greave.
