    she pulls her costume off better than you to do, and I think it is because of the same reason every male warhammer cosplayer looks sort of silly. the costumes the miniatures wear are designed for heroic scale anatomy, you do not have heroic scale anatomy. unless you are a deformed freak as wide as he is tall and with hands as big as his head it isn't going to look right

    I don't know. I think Mr. Commissar has pretty awesome chops. Definitely the best real Commissar I've ever seen.

    But yeah, every male WH40k character is UBER-RIPPED and usually twice as wide as he's tall just from MUSCLE MUSCLE MUSCLEEEEE.

    So it's kind of difficult to properly get it all done unless the costume is more like some sort of exo-skeleton with its own shape that doesn't really require a person inside.

    And that plasma gun is very nice, you must admit.

    It's always nice to find others with the same interests. There were quite a handful of good 40k cosplayers around the con, and we were fortunate enough to be able to organize a decent meet up.

    The two on the left are myself and the wife (obviously), next to me is a Space Marine Scout, then a Living Saint (no wings, but the costume is awesome), and a trio of Krieg (they had gas masks, but weren't wearing them for this photo; the two kneeling are Death Korps Guardsman, and the fancier one behind is their Commissar).

    I would just like to announce that I appreciate your wife's costume in an entirely aesthetic, non-sexual way, which is no no sense influenced by the fact that she is costuming as a highly fetishized, sexualized character. I will not, most certainly NOT, speculate on the pleasure to be had in having intercourse with such a woman, with or without one of the costumes which she will apparently wear. Not that I would in any way insinuate that she might be doing it for the sake of OP, bur rather she is clearly an avid 40k fan herself who dresses in costume solely for the asexual, aesthetic enjoyment of doing so; and who would in fact find any such fetishization from her own husband quite unmanly and unwelcome.

    Frankly, my indifference to your wife's attractiveness borders on faint disgust, and I am saving the photographs of her which you have so helpfully uploaded solely for the purpose of future artistic enjoyment, rather than to touch myself and fantasize about riding your hot-ass wife like a Shetland pony.

    Hey guys, I'm the sororitas in the thread. I really appreciate all the great comments and suggestions. I'm just REALLY glad he took the time to make this. Honestly, it feels really great to show off all the painstaking details. I play a sister in our Dark Heresy campaign and I've been doing the best I can to do good poses for photos based on what I've learned from playing. I'm also VERY surprised he did this costume for me rather than on the mechanicus he's been wanting to do for a looong time now. I was almost overwhelmed by the sheer amount of attention I got at con being that none of my costumes in the past have been nearly as epic. There were these little boys staring all wide eyed going "WOOOOW" when they saw me. It made wearing a corset the 4 inch heels for 13 straight hours worth it. Thanks again for all the positive comments, I'm just glad that I have the look to pull off such as amazing costume he put together. I did the book, BLEACHED, CUT and DYED my hair for this, and put together some of the minor accessories, kommissar deserves all the credit for making the costume. : ) kommissar, I love you, just so you know. ; )

    The hight thing is easily fixable with simple aspect changes like the Castle in Disney world is only 200 feet tall. and using platfrom stilt kinda things, as well as the shoulders being able to work as well.

    What I want to do is to get one of those 2x human suits the used in the Lord of The Rings in the Bree tavern scene, put springs in it and put some gold plating on it. UNPOWERED GOD EMPEROR ARMOR FUCK YEAR!

    mostly sheet styrene and pvc expanded foam, (no not craft foam or foamboard, this stuff really isnt foamlike at all)
    i plan to do a member of the priesthood of mars some time, but i need to make a custom melta, flamer pistol and a full sized bolter first, not to mention a combi bolter for an eversor friend.

    >>5268295
    Patience, Practice and alot of careful sanding.
    i made all of this stuff by hand, no vacuforming or anything, just a dremmel, xacto blade and a few hand tools.
    oh and a heatgun.
    heat a small arena, move it a tiny bit, heat the next area, bend tiny amount, repeat.
    don't attempt unless your patient and dedicated to the emperor.

    i feel bad to tell you that that SoB costume is my second costume i've made.

    Hey, a while back we had a thread that went on for several days over what Sisters actually smell like after they remove their armor.

    You mind telling us, since this is probably as close as it gets?

    Honestly, it wasn't that bad. I kept super hydrated and made sure to remove the armor every couple of hours to stretch and cool off. I wore a perfumed lotion just in case (L.A.M.B to be precise) as well as some body spray before i put on the costume. ( I actually got a couple of complements on how i smelled, lol.) I'm also wearing underarmour underneath the armor so it kept me pretty dry. I guess the only real issue i had was with the boots. mostly with pain in my feet though. i don't exactly smell myself every time i undress y'know?

    Interesting. I suppose it's not wholly accurate anyway since the power armor is usually a centuries-old hand-me-down, and of course, you didn't spend weeks on a battlefield and you get a chance to bathe every day.

    I've never worked with sheet styrene, Kommissar. I follow how you do the curves, but how to you get such clean sharp edges on the joints (like on the bolter or backpack)? And how do you bond the pieces together?

    One way that you can bend it is by putting the pieces in boiling water. It will give you a nice smooth curve and it is VERY quick. Depending upon the size of the piece, you can either use an ordinary pot or you can get yourself a galvanized steel bucket to fill up with boiling water. Just stick in the edges that need to be bent a little past where the bend will be and then just wait for it to become pliable. It is REALLY easy to do; it is the tailoring it to your body that is the hard part

    it was a cardboard shape we painted up, i would like to leather bind it sometime though, that's the awesome thing about this costume, it's not finished yet!

    plans for Improvement
    + make a helmet with glowing blue eyes (yes, a Helmet!)
    + add blue energy glow to backpack
    + coolant fans
    + thigh armor
    + forearm armor
    + extend the greave armor to look articulated

    that's just to name a few that are prevalent in my mind.

    >>5271638
    his costume was pretty good actually, i'm glad he showed some effort into it all.
    poor guy was tired as all hell though, their costumes were heavy and they wore them for almost the whole con.
