Cosplay checklist

All right. I am actively working on two costumes now - Zax and Gambino. Zax needs new armor, a better wig, and more accurate boots. Gambino needs... well... everything. I have all the fabric for his clothes, but I haven't actually started construction on him yet.

So I don't forget, my checklist of things I need for both costumes:

For Zax:

  • Brown pleather
  • Zippers
  • Plastic mesh
  • Thin cotton cloth
  • Assorted diddlybobs

For Gambino:

  • Blond wigs (one to form the base of his hair, one to cannibalize for his eyebrows and sideburns)
  • Some kind of prosthetic latex for his nose, chin, and cheekbones
  • Designer shoes
  • Spirit gum
  • Actual work

For both costumes:

  • Liquid Latex - for Zax's armor, Gambino's accessories, and about a million little bits and bobs on Zax's costume
  • Stardust, finishing product for the Liquid Latex - both silver and gold


Managed to dragoon Mom into a supply run on Saturday. :D With any luck, I'll have Gambino made by Halloween. I won't cry TOO hard if I don't, though.

AniZona is the deadline for both, though. I have no excuse not to get them done by then.

That's awesome, I'd really like to see the end results particularly Gambino XD
