Plans for 2020 screaming
Chainmail came in a week late, but thankfully in time to test for final touches!!
Meet Griffion’s Rake (stc), a pvc foam board sword. It is an Eddard Stark replica that I have been customizing with a friend over the past few weeks. This weekend, I am painting on eplsion pro to strengthen the blade for travel / con damage and hopefully give it a metallic shine when I finish it off.
Right now it is curing. I am going to give it one more coat in the morning, the maybe one last one befofe letting it over night to cure.

Here is where I ended for the day! My workspace is limited as is my time, so I am planning to cut out all the pieces to wrap in worbla before buying any more or taking a long weekend to make them.
Working on the updates for Colassal Con 2019
craft foam scale mail(le) tutorial
so for some reason blackwall has a scale mail(le)* loincloth. idk why, maybe people like to kick him in the balls or something, who knows.
if you’re made out of money and time (time being the same thing as money, so double money or double time, i guess), you can just buy scale making supplies from the ring lord or something, which can be pricey and take a while, or you can try to figure out some other way to do it.
i didn’t want to spend like $40 on scales that would look too real next to the rest of my fake foam armor, and i didn’t want to spend a billion hours weaving a skirt with rings and little metal pieces, so instead I decided to do it on the cheap and instead of like $40 i paid less than $5 for the materials i used since i had most of it on hand for my other armor, anyway. idk i think it looks just fine and is much less heavy than actual metal would have been. here’s a closeup.
i own a sillhouette portrait cutting machine i bought on sale from amazon a couple years ago, so i was curious if it would be any easier to do it this way, since i was making the shape in illustrator anyway…
so here’s what i did:
STEP 1- Vector scale mail(le) shape thing in Illustrator and scale (HAR HAR) it to how big i wanted it to be. the line up the middle is a crease line, which will make more sense later.
STEP 2- figure out how many scales i would need by arranging them in rows.
STEP 3- figure out cutting area i had to work with and arrange scales in rows on artboard.
STEP 4a- export to dxf format so silhouette machine can cut it.
STEP 4b- alternately, you can print scales onto paper to use as a template for tracing and cutting by hand.
(more under the cut so this doesn’t get long, including pics of what it looks like finished AND because i’m nice also there’s a jpg template at the end if you want to trace some scales AND the vector file i used to cut these in case you have a machine and want to make your own.)

Another tutorial! This one tells you how to make articulated shoulder armor that bends with your arm. The shoulders were probably the most difficult piece for my Tyrael cosplay, so hopefully this will make things a bit simpler for others.
