#justicaraatrox

If you can imagine this helmet with regal white feathers and that the blue side pieces weren’t bent, then you have my first masterful piece that I was super proud of. Still am today to a certain degree; at least in the realms of paint and overall effect. Even design was somewhat inspiring on this project: my Justicaar Aatrox helm! #flashbackfriday #featurefriday #maker #motivation #paint #paintjob #gold #weathering #design #aatrox #justicar #lol #leagueoflegends #justicaraatrox #tank #cosplay #cosplayer #foamsmeef #thefoamforge #foamsmith #evafoam #fabrication #prop #costume #maker #artist #resolution #riot #helmet #rekindlethiscreativity (at The Foam Forge)

Another pic of my Aatrox with another of my favorite league cosplayers! @littlebitx92 Think these two champs could be friends? She likes chaos and violence and he thinks of massacres as an artform XD #cosplay #leagueoflegends #justicaraatrox #aatrox #jinx #animeconvention #leagueoflegendscosplay

Looking back at old projects and being completely inspired by how much time and care I took with them. Really wanting to get back to this level of investment in my own personal costumes. #makermonday #maker #motivationmonday #motivation #paint #paintjob #gold #weathering #design #aatrox #justicar #lol #leagueoflegends #justicaraatrox #tank #cosplay #cosplayer #foamsmeef #thefoamforge #foamsmith #evafoam #fabrication #prop #costume #maker #artist #resolution #riot #proud #rekindlethiscreativity (at The Foam Forge)

My first attempt at a bodysuit was for my boy Aatrox. Simple pattern, ill fitting, crappy paint job; but learned a lot. Painted muscles directly into the suit and super glued Velcro to hold the armor on, lol oh how I’ve grown. #sewingsaturday #sewing #aatrox #justicar #lol #leagueoflegends #justicaraatrox #tank #bodysuit #riot #velcro #tulip #fabricpaint #musclesuit #muscles #cosplay #cosplayer #foamsmeef #thefoamforge #foamsmith #evafoam #fabrication #prop #costume #maker #artist #resolution #seamster #specialfx #blastfromthepast (at The Foam Forge)

Still so much detail paint work to do. Wings to finish. Leds to wire. But i do it for love 😊 #cosplay #comic #LeagueOfLegends #justicaraatrox #justicar #armor #aatrox #pensacon

[foamsmeef]

Just base armor. Still missin sword, wings and a few details here and there. Time to prime. #cosplay #LeagueOfLegends #justicaraatrox #aatrox #armor

[foamsmeef]

Wearing test trial numero uno. So. I remade the base helmet completely (Now I have two) with a better design that emphasizes the craftsmanship. Also started in on the layered pieces of the helmet. #cosplay #kylelykescosplay #kylelykes #LeagueOfLegends #aatrox #justicaraatrox #justicar #helmet #armor #foam #lol

[foamsmeef]

Lastly: For the final base made out of foam it is held together with barge all purpose cement. Still have allot of finishing to do and details to add. But that's how you make a foam helmet for cosplay 😄 #cosplay #head #anime #kylelykes #kylelykescosplay #justicaraatrox #LeagueOfLegends #aatrox #helmet #costume #sukoshicon

Step 5: Ish. Take your handy dandy exacto blade and cut out the pattern. Notch the areas that bubble in the tape, pick the best half of your pattern and use this for the entire helmet (just flip it inside out to do the other side) then transfer to posterboard. Then pin the transfer and transfer that onto the foam. #cosplay #head #anime #kylelykes #kylelykescosplay #justicaraatrox #LeagueOfLegends #aatrox #helmet #costume #sukoshicon

Step 4: Duct tape all ova dat big ol head and then with a sharpie, outline your helmet. Divide it into manageable sections that can be glued together and leave hash marks to show where the peices fit back together 😃 #cosplay #head #anime #kylelykes #kylelykescosplay #justicaraatrox #LeagueOfLegends #aatrox #helmet #costume #sukoshicon
