Brass plating is seriously satisfying. The one and only part of my armor build where it doesn't sound like I'm taking down the whole house. Well....guys. the posts for the next month will be me dissecting my armor and turning them all into brass hahahahhaa. These are several plates from my voiders. 16guage mild steel Sanded to a 60grid on grinder Hand sanded with 180 sandpaper Brass wheel on drill with torch. #armor #knight #brass #gold #brassarmor #goldarmor #knightarmor #armor #medieval #medievalcombat #historical #historicaleuropeanmartialarts #martialarts #hema #larp #sca #reenactment #wanpanscosplay #wanpans https://www.instagram.com/p/CLkJrnxjxP8/?igshid=aazdsavsbkj

Woohooo Brass Firekeeper helmet is turning out nicely! Here are the steps on how we got here---- 1) base plastic 2) hot glue for detailing 3) Matte Black Trimclad for base coat 4) Gold and silver paint 5) pin everything with Brass paper fastener 6) leather snap pins for the rest--- Time to make the rest of this helmet and we are close to finishing!!!

Brass Firekeeper progress!! Thank you all who are curious about our choice of material!!!! We often use different plastics from multiple container (flower pot, yogurt cup, water bottles, etc) to build our cosplay. We use the softer ones as the top delicate layers where as the harder/ stiffer stuff can be used for more structural work. Next, we will be adding the final detailing layer (usually hot glue) on, then we can show you our painting progress!!!! #firekeeper #darksouls #darksouls3 #brass #brassset #brassarmor #fromsoftware #miyazaki #armor #helmet #armet #blade #cosplay #cosplayarmor #girlcosplay #wanpanscosplay #wanpans #bandai #bandainamco #yogurtcup #yogurt https://www.instagram.com/p/B4g1eeajH5H/?igshid=jis0v1cyb9wn

In case if you dont have access to a dremel, or just doesnt want to make a mess... A small Olfa knife will do just fine! To avoid over sanding or digging, i find this method to work much better on thinner 5mm foam. If you manage to savage the piece that you cut out, you can also flip it over and use it as a template for the other side Ò w Ój #longsword #greatsword #swordofavowal #brass #darksouls #darksouls3 #brassarmor #foam #foamcosplay #foamsword #olfa #olfaknive #wanpanscosplay #wanpans https://www.instagram.com/p/B5qhzDSlTyc/?igshid=1cqcodvasvz19

CANT RAISE YOUR ARM?! THEN HOW CAN YOU PRAISE THE DARK MOON?! Its always been a constant battle for fantasy cosplayer to have FUNCTIONAL PAULDRON! Historical armor even as early as a brigadine to late medieval full plate armor has a series of leather and strap work that connect to the top shoulder rim of their chest plate to the top edge of the pauldron. The pauldrons are then strapped to the bicept with either string or full leather straps. LET YOUR ARMS FREE MY FRIENDS! People guessed: Pockets?! Pee hole?! Place to put your wallet?! Well, yes to all but...shoulder movement is what i was thinking HAHAHAA Thank you for the love :3 Time: 28 Hours Material spent: $ 14.00 #darksouls3 #darksouls #brass #brassarmor #papertemplate #HELMET #BRASS #RECYCLE #blue #gardenpot #flowerpot #hornhelmet #horn #waifu #waifucosplay #firekeeper #anorlondo #miyazaki #bandainamco #BANDAI #armor #wip #wanpanscosplay #wanpans #helmet #chestplate #chestarmor https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw6ATrNjuLx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hnns575wj1lq

BRASS SET FIREKEEPER IS SO COMFY---- I can flex my arms all the way backward. Even the back plates slides and collapse into each other! One of the biggest challenge that we have is to actually find a way to get in and out of the chest plate. Its like game developer expects human to magically morph into their metal tin case they call a chestplate. BUT WE WILL ALWAYS FIND A WAY! Luckly, the brass set had a few seams that we can fudge in a removeable part.
