Monster hunter cosplay armor

Sooo now we get to my current day project, I'm actually working on 2 I really want to compile all the images and footage I took into a tutorial. It's not all scaly like the Rathalos and it seems to be make up of plenty of big pieces that we can layer or break down in which to handle better. Instead of making. Weapons Lagiacrus Armor - Waist by Ganelan. Monster Hunter armors are usually pretty hard to do for a cosplay beginner.

Watching the Sony conference at E3 back in gave me a new love: Monster Hunter! The trailer for Monster Hunter World just hit me like a rock and despite of having never played any Monster Hunter title before, I instantly became obsessed with the series. As a complete beginner I wanted to be prepared for the new game and so I started playing Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Stories, 4 Ultimate and finally Generations. While these games are full of amazing armor sets, especially the thunder doggo Zinogre struck a nerve in me. I fell in love with the vibrant colors, the silhouette and the beast itself. While charging up, the monster lights up blue, pulsing and creating flashing lightning bolts around it.

Nergigante is my absolute favorite monster in Monster Hunter World and I simply adore its armor set. While the costume looked fun and doable at the beginning, it turned out to be very challenging and drowned us in at the end. The whole project was made out of EVA foam and covered in thousands of scales that I burned in with my soldering iron for endless hours. In addition I sculpted, shaped, primed, painted and glued on over individual spikes all over the costume. I actually lost count of how much EVA foam and foam clay I used for the project, but it was clearly a whole lot.

If you find a better fabric, more helpful pattern, go for it! I really dig the colour scheme and desert nomad aesthetic here. You have two approaches here: Either get twill and do applique, or a leather like material and use a leather or multi-surface paint to paint on the pattern.
