| I don't think I've been so excited about a costume for ages...I've always wanted to do a version of Loki, but never got around to actually even put it down to planning stage. I love the design of the movie, so Kirby yet believable and realistic. I'm guessing this might take a few months! Watch this space!! There's a couple of bits to do yet, detail work and lacquering but it's as done as it's going to be! I didn't manage to get many pics of me, so thanks many people who took pics. THANKS HOLLI FOR BEING THOR GIRL <3 Did improve this for expo, much happier with the helmet! A bit more to do...nearly complete! Updating the In Progress files 13/02/12 Also, this is a joint project with my bf Paul, who made the armour parts :) | |

Journal

Bits and bobs (Posted 1st November 2011) Despite the fact I said I wouldn't do any more to Loki...I lied ...mwahahaha...it is in character after all ;) a new, wider more bellowing cape is in the works, I want to redo the bands on the sides, they were rushed. and find a better system to attach the pauldron and vambraces.! |
|
Back plate (Posted 29th July 2011) The new back plate needed to give the shoulders the effect in the Movie, |
|
trousers (Posted 5th July 2011) Ok, Trousers are 98% done. I'm happy enough with them :o/ |
|
helmet...complete (Posted 3rd July 2011) After priming, painting & lacquering...many coats of lacquer... |
|
Helmet WIP (Posted 25th June 2011) The helmet now has a top!, there's still a lot of work to do and it looks big and white! the horns are only taped on, I really wanted to see how it was going to look! |
|
Odin Staff (Posted 8th June 2011) Finally some progress!!! Cintra, or foamalux. Still being worked on and very white. |
|
Helmet! (Posted 30th May 2011) Very much in Progress :) Again, this is using foamalux. The relief is carved into the sheet before heating to shape. We are using 3 millimetre thick sheets. |
|
Armour (Posted 18th May 2011) Amazingly I found a place that sells Foamalux and it's just minutes from my house! Who'd have thought it...that's gonna save me a few bucks in shipping! |

Foamalux. It's a thermoplastic. It's called Cintra the the US. And Thank you :)
Thanks for the advice, I ordered some samples and some pricing to order it for a big project I might do next year. The horns and helmet are looking great! Keep up the good work
Wow epic helmet is EPIC!!! Well done!
Hehe. thanks hon, I need some serious " walking around with massive helmet on head" practice! It's a bit weird really I feel like I'm going to get stuck in doorways! Fingers crossed they have high ceilings at Earls court!
You are doing a fantastic job with this, can't wait to see more!
Haha is it bad that I couldn't help but giggle insanely at the thought of you being stuck in a doorway cause of your helmet
You bad bad girl! You should have seen me negotiate the door. Now that was funny!

Fantastic :D I'm inspired to do well on my own Loki now hehe.
New helmet looks great! Old one was awesome too, but the curves on this look so much nicer.
this looked incredible at LFCC! I just never got a chance to take a photo which sucked lol.
Wow, the costume is excellent, and you look a lot like him too!
Very nicely done with the new helmet. I would worry about breaking it if I ever wore it, although would need the skill to build one first!!
@Furiephoenix, thank you so much! I hope we can meet up at MCM
@Anggul...Thanks!
@NuFenix, Cheers! I carry emergency super glue! I have a very talented Fellow who helps me with these huge projects!
that's cool helmet. You are great. The costumes of you two are gorgeous.
New Helmet - I find it incredible how you model that foam stuff into the shapes you want, it looks so neat. Well done.
best movie Loki, how did you manage to mould your horns so perfectly? :) x
Thanks Louscious, It took a lot of hard work, and heat, and a former :)
Love this sooooo much!!!

I saw pics of this pop up again recently (Kapow, perhaps?) and I have to say I still get that giddy 'This is awesome!' feeling when I see it. Truly awesome work - the armour is just beautiful.
