| So, the film doesn't come out here until February, but I have fallen in love with this delightful creepy charming man via trailers and such. I am making this based on official promo images, released screen images and the like. I will be wearing the costume (probably as a female version) when i go to see the movie, I may cosplay at Midlands expo, but I'm not sure if I'll be well enough to go. that's another story. I will be having props: his cards, skull mask, skull pendent, ID cards and voodoo dolls.. but not to use at the same time. again I am basing this from any officially realease trailers or images so things might not be too accurate. | |

25 January 2010. (Posted 25th January 2010) Do not try to use the wrong size sticks for your glue gun... I now have the right size and have did a tidy up of the hat. |
 |
18 January 2010. (Posted 18th January 2010) I then used Hot Glue, Black Felt (I sent a family member to the shop, but they had no Braize) and Rouge satin. I just need a feather and after taking a photo I realised the felt needs some more glue - OOPS! |
 |
13 January 2010 (Posted 18th January 2010) Used: Sticky tape, 6x A4 black card, card board pizza base, a dish to draw around and scissors. I will be covering this with Braize. P.S, I love how things look really odd or messy when they are in progress. It looks doublt the height in this image hehe |

08 January 2010 (Posted 8th January 2010) I used Skull White and Bleached Bone (Warhammer/Citidal paints) to paint the bones. Fristly Skull White all over, and then a dry drush of Bleached Bone on the edges and at the top of the bones. |

08 January 2010 (Posted 8th January 2010) Yesterday I made the two bones for his necklace out of clay. Today I went to work on them and half of the larger bone had fallen off. |
 |
wig? (Posted 4th January 2010) Would this do for the wig *thinks* Although not sure what it's like at the back.. I think I can sort of curl the front.. http://www.justforfun.co.uk/product/danny-wig-grease/WSM31594/ ?? Other than that, there's Evlis ones around, but they are rubber or too big at the front. |

31 December 2009 (Posted 31st December 2009) Amoung some mess in my livingroom, I saw a cardboard tube of a finished roll of wrapping paper. PERFECT!! the start of his Cane handle.. I cut all the way down the tube. Held it into the shape needed and used rather a lot of tape to hold it together. Oh, yeah I would sand down wood but I want to make this as cheap as I can.. so cardboard it is. |
 |
30 december 2009 (Posted 30th December 2009) i made a template for theskull and cross bones, by drawing on paper. ready for the hat... |
|
20 December 2009 (Posted 20th December 2009) I finished the design for Dr Facilier's cards.. They took me 6 hours, and I based them on some official promo images. They didn't show that much detail and as the film isn't released here until February, I had to guess some of it.. So yes, that will be the back of the cards. |
