Oh Tridents

Hey Everyone!
So to say the truth , Cosplayer's are some times picky. I've been trying to redo my Tridents for Mera since I do not like the ones I made first off and I think I got it! I tried a new different approach to making them and it seems to be amazing idea. I made a mold using clay that is cured in an oven but before I cured the clay I pressed into the clay using a foam trident which gave me a good design and shape that I liked . Yes I burned the clay which at the time I was working out with my hula hoop plus I wasn't worried about not burning the clay since I will only use it for molding. So what I did after it cured is grabbed a small sheet of worbla heated it and formed it into the mold, so far i like this idea much better. Sometimes just testing ideas turns out and sometimes it doesn't.

Mera's Ocean Crown Part 2

Hello everyone!
So I've been busy with Mera's Ocean crown and on another costume that I am modeling with in a photo shoot this coming up Saturday. However this is what I have done so far on the crown. I've covered it with worbla and worked of on the Tridents.


I did have to mark where the middle was to make sure I have room for the tridents and my ocean jewel .I am starting to like my reboot of Mera so far!

Water Weapon update!!! #2

So I spent almost all day coloring the white ornament balls to pearl blue , it wasn't easy but can be done. Don't mind the green tape at the bottom of the prop that's so I don't crush the wires,I have put the LED's in the ornaments but I have not hooked the LEDs to a battery adapter but the LEDs will show up and light up  the water weapon I have tested this to make sure. Just have to do some miner touches and it will be done and ready for Wizard World Austin Texas! 
However today we did get in that new product I mentioned in my last post, so hopefully very soon you will be reading a new post on this product.  
Just to give you some back ground on who is Mera. She is Aqua Mans wife. Mera has the unique ability to form "hard water" objects, as well as super strength and powers related to her adaptation to live under water. She has been shown to be powerful enough to control, albeit briefly, huge amounts of water, enough to pull an entire army out to sea. Due to her intended role as an infiltrator and a killer, Mera received extensive training in Xebel, becoming a formidable opponent on her own

Please keep checking back, there is more to come with Mera's costume and more cosplay projects/costumes.

Thanks for Reading , Until then JUST KEEP SWIMMING!

Ocean Crown Part 1

Hey Everyone!
So I just started on my Mera Ocean Crown. Still waiting for the concept art to be done with for Mera's outfit. This is what I have done so far....

So above is my Mera crown out of foam, I am going to be using a lot of different produces such as Worbla , Friendly Plastics mold pellets, Clear Casting Resin and possibly a Newer Product that my fiance and I are testing out for a business that might start caring this, they wanted to see what we can do with it before they sale it however I am not able to say what the product is until we do the pro and con's of this product like I did for Foam and Worbla post a while back. I will be doing a blog based only on the new product when building a part of Mera's crown or something else. Now with that being said "Lets Go Down Below"
     

I know these's pictures are not the greatest, the lighting made it really hard to do pictures , but just to give you an idea I also did a clear casting resin ocean scene. That will be put on the crown as well.    

So I am really excited to start on Mera's costume, I did get to see a start of what the artist had drawn so far. So please keep checking back and bare with me, since I am still doing the waiting game for this costume.
Also one more thing, I am still working on Mera's Water Weapon as soon as that is done to i will do an update as well. 

Thanks for Reading until next time Just KEEP SWIMMING!
