GodEmperorOfMankind Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I really hope this project is for a girl. My husband has always wanted to be a Sister of Battle. Make sure you do an outfit for him too then! @Jaspcat, I KNEW you like to play dress up, you and Kage ;) .... Can I play too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeve Trinity Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 My husband is such a non-geek, if I made him a Sister of Battle costume I dont think he'd notice the difference... except maybe for the boobs. >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maeve Trinity Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 OK! Got nothing accomplished this past weekend cause I was sick Sill waiting on a shipment of worbla, but I am continuing with that I've got! That said..... boots are done!! Just need to paint them and stuff. What sorts of paints do you all recommend for painting on foam? I should note the shin guard flex a bit so I'm hoping for a paint that works well with that. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y128/Jammy_Dodger/IMG_4879.jpg Unless the worbla comes so I can start on my breastplate, I will be moving on to the gauntlets!

Kaldoth Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Very nice! Loving it so far. As far as what to paint with, I would highly recommend using an airbrush for this. It'll save you time and is great for costumes. I use the Vallejo air color paints, but you can use the citadel range if you thin them with a medium. Cheers, -Kal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I'm not sure what would be a good paint for something flexible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I would have suggested a latex-based paint as one that has some flex in it, but may be too late for that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montuhotep Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Sorry, I just looked at the boots and figured they were nearly done in all respects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeve Trinity Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 Sorry, I just looked at the boots and figured they were nearly done in all respects. oh no! lol not at all. :) This is just 100% foam and a bit of paper clay at this point. I plan to pain the whole thing in a metallic black with gold and silver accents when all is said and done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On it I will be embellishing it with the little "OBEY" ornament below http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y128/Jammy_Dodger/IMG_4880.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maeve Trinity Posted October 16, 2013 Author Share Posted October 16, 2013 Thank you guys so much :D Normally I do work at a snails pace, but I really really want to have this baby done for the annual Halloween party we go to... not that anyone is gonna know what the heck I am.. but who cares!!!! http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y128/Jammy_Dodger/IMG_4892.jpgNothing too exciting tonight, just made my purity seals...... letting them dry before sealing them and attaching the little prayer "parchments". http://obscuruscrusade.com/forum/Smileys/default/smiley.gifAlso made the back plate that goes over my shoulders, to which I will be attaching the every wonderful crowning piece, the pauldrons, and eventually the life support unit pack thingie (though, this part may not be finished by Halloween and I may just replace it with a big red cape or something... I dunno... too Super Sister? http://obscuruscrusade.com/forum/Smileys/default/wink.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
