A promised tutorial for :iconaxelflurryofflame:
This is the last of my Terra cosplay TuTs (?). Hope you all found it helpful as well as entertaining. I found that making tutorials is also (in a way) a part of cosplay. Extending the life and enjoyment of a particular character that you cosplayed and that it could give birth to many more cosplays and cosplayers out there. Similar to cosplay, its taxing but fun :ahoy:


Now, Go forth my fellow Terra cosplayers and multiply! (sounds so wrong...)

You just made my day :D
I am aiming to Cosplay Terra in September, and have been at a loss of where to start for the armor!
I'm so glad I found this! Sooo much better than the dinky things you can buy from cosplay stores!
Now if only I could get me some nice Hakama pants and get a nice belt/sash!

+Fave for you sir!

No problem =)
Have to agree on the dinky comment. I cry whenever one appear on my screen. I'm sure the sash+ hakama is the second least problem for your costume. Good Luck on your Terra! :ahoy:

Also, I wonder if putting a thin synthetic leather over the pieces, rather than painting, would be any easier? I have been told that the leather has a nice texture and is more durable than most paints. Opinions?

(I'm not sure if my leather is same with yours, 'thin synthetic') Leather is kinda thick and doesn't work well with curved or rounded surface. If your leather can avoid this problem, no problem.

Yeah, it lasts longer compared to paints. Its a plus if it can be 'metallic' looking for the armor. KH has more of a clean look so I don't think leather is a material for them. But hey if you think it would make Terra cooler don't let me stop you :D

I had spoken with brunopagno about this [link]
Seems he used a thin leatherish material to cover his piece.

So I'm trying to take the best of everything I can find to put together a bad-ace cosplay costume.

can you explain me how did you make it look so glossy and shiny? what material is it?

Its a (transparent) clear semi-gloss acrylic spray-paint. Good to make your pieces shine and adds protection.

Beforehand the foam is prepared to make sure paints would look good on it with primer, heat or white-glue.

hi! i love this so much! it's a great tutorial, but i was wondering about the forearm. does yours just slip over your hand? i find that when i make mine so that it can slip over my hand, it's a really big and bulky armor. do i just have to deal with that?

Yes, it's bulkiness does make it slip and securing it's upper with parts would hinder your flexing movement. But it can be remedied. If you notice, I wore a glove-armor for my Terra (with a decent foam thickness). This helps keeping the forearm from falling while still you still able to flex your MAsSeLLSss :ahoy:
