Re: Kid Rock impersonation cosplay costume
This last shot was just me messing around with effects in my camera program but it turned out like a poster so I really liked it.
Re: Underwater Scene
Thanks so much! I’ll keep posted when I have more progress pictures, I’m really excited!
Re: Gluing Ultracal
I've had good results repairing ultracal with Rustoleum Concrete Patch & Repair, an epoxy designed for cements. Definitely do drill out the halves and reinforce as Chris said. For that I like to use a piece of threaded rod, as the threads give you some extra texture to lock into. Ultimately the fragility and environmental susceptibility of stone molds is the reason I've switched almost entirely to composite epoxy molds. It's removed so much headache from my life. Basically doing variations on what the Immortal Masks dudes taught in their silicone mask course for everything now. Helluva course! Thank you Winston School!
Re: Tim Allen's Last Man Standing - Kyle Anderson Impersonation Cosplay costume
Then came the pain. Actual pain. Kyle, real name Christoph Sanders, has a really patchy set of facial hair. I had to pluck my way down to a screen match.
This is the closeup pic of the actor. Much pain ensued and I was finally ready for my posing. Note the above pic is backward, as I needed to match by plucking my own hair in a mirror. Then out came the green screen and I pasted me over Kyle in the following scenes.

Galen Erso impersonation cosplay costume, Mads Mikkelsen impersonation cosplay costume
My Galen Erso build was about 3 years ago. This was very basic and involved repurposing a sport coat and suit combo. The adornments include two pen caps covered in tinfoil with attached safety pins, a badge made of felt squares covered with colored chalk, and the belt buckle made from a soda can. This was my first attempt at matching a screen pose and started my cosplay goal of matching a known scene. My hair was close enough naturally, including hairline so no serious makeups were used on this build.

Hi Marcus, could you load some previous event photos? @MarcusB
Earth Nymph
Hi, I'm chiara, I'm from rome and I'm 22 years old. For this project, the idea was to create a fantasy character representing the earth element, having as reference the dragonflies, an animal symbol of rebirth but also of attachment to the earth.
I decided to give life to a divinity, the mother of flora and fauna, almost as if she too was born from a lake, but with elegant and regal features. A form of metamorphosis that unites the human being with the animal world.
For this project, I was able to combine the world of makeup with that of stage design, and I created the prostheses and makeup, but also the stage design. I sculpted the rocks from blocks of polystyrene, which I then painted. Together with my green designer colleague Flaminia (@amorvincitomnia.design) we recreated the green part of the lagoon.
For the prosthetic make-up, I sculpted the prostheses on the model's mould and then replicated them in encapsulated silicone, which I coloured during application with alcohol-based paints.
I hope you enjoy it, thank you
Tiethulhu. Ask me anything
Meet tiethulhu, I made him as a quick deploy makeup. He was made in two days in my garage and can be applied in less than an hour and doesn’t overheat. Ask me anything about him I might even divulge a secret or two if asked enough questions.
