Mushroom crowns version 1 (below) vs version 2 (above)

The first one was made 48 hours before the event I needed it for so the design is a lot simpler and I wasn’t able to spend a lot of time sculpting the mushrooms. The mushrooms are sculpted from milliput which meant the crown was really hard and it got sore after a few hours. I like parts of the paint job on the first version especially the top of the mushrooms but overall it isn’t quite what I wanted it to be. Also a few of the mushrooms broke off at some point which was not ideal.

The new version is a massive improvement I think. I used a super lightweight foam clay to sculpt the mushrooms the original crown weighs about 200g and the new version is about 100g this makes a massive difference. The clay still has give when it’s dry so it is a lot more comfortable to wear as well.

The colours have also changed I initially went with a more natural colour for the mushrooms but given developments in game gold became a much more appropriate colour. The lilac colour was a complete accident but also worked for the character. I’ve been aiming to remove all purple from my costume so having a very subtle faded purple works as a good homage to that removal. Over the next few events I’m going to be repainting the crown in response to what happens in game

Finished my new mushroom crown. I normally don’t like using gold in costumes but plot developments have forced my hand and I think I’ve done a good job adding it here. This is version two of my mushroom crown. I made the first version 48 hours before the event and it shows. I’ll make a second post comparing the two later. This one I made in a week and I plan to make alterations to it throughout next year in response to what happens in game.

Now that I’ve managed to get some food and sleep I’d like to give a big thanks to everyone who came out this weekend and stopped by mine and Emer’s pitch. It was my first LARPcon as a trader so I was super nervous so it was really nice to see everyone and get some super nice compliments on what I’ve made. I’ve got big plans in the works for March and I should have all my leftover costume posted online this weekend for those who weren’t able to make it in person.

Back for day two!!!
