Bruxa from Witcher 3: Blood and Wine
Hi I'm @TirameowsuCosplay on Instagram.
Teeth and claws prosthetics are fully handmade and molded with friendly plastic, foam, glues and paint/dyes. Weathered and ripped up a small dress, primal contact lenses, wig, lots of cream bodypaint/makeup applied with my hands (I don't own an airbrush machine or fancy brushes).
ZERO photoshop, all photos are straight out of the camera, they were taken by my partner, @Alexicutioner on Instagram.
In terms of this character, I am Orianna the Bruxa monster from the Witcher 3 game, Blood and Wine DLC. You can see her appearance as a monster in the "Night to Remember" teaser trailer for Blood and Wine.
I hope you enjoy!! I freezed my butt off doing this photoshoot in the wet mushy leaves by the lake in 11° Celsius!! 😆
Rex the Dragon
Meet Rex! He's a 22 foot fire-breathing dragon (not actual fire. . .actually, its a fire extinguisher.......but we don't talk about that). He is a stage puppet operated by 4 puppeteers (Jeremiah Gould-head, myself-wings, Jesse Gould-legs, and Isaac Schuyler-tail) for the show Kingdom Chronicles at the Logos Theatre in association with Majesty Music and their Patch the Pirate Adventures.
Rex the Dragon Sizzle Reel: https://youtu.be/baGZ4hwUV8c
His eyes, mouth, and throat, all glow. His jaw, arms, legs, and wings are all articulated. He is primarily made of bamboo, landscape fabric, and EVA foam/L200. Don't ask me why, but his head and inner mouth plates were vacuum-formed in 6 different sections.
Original design was by Ken Hines, who was also lead sculpture for the head. Harrell Whittington was the lead painter (he happens to be completely color blind!). I assisted both of these incredible men, and headed up the rest of the build with an assistant Jesse Gould (pictured below) and several of my students and volunteers: William Landrum, Emily Stoll, Joe Hainsworth, Craig Robertson, and Jonah Cofer.
Since his completion, he as made several public appearances and has quickly become the talk of the town.
This was a fun project, and although this isn't necessarily my Halloween costume, let's just say that this is going to be a fun Halloween!!

Marvel Comics “Hobgoblin”
The Hobgoblin from Marvel Comics
Full costume made by me. Prosthetics sculpted and run in silicone.

Dr Finkelstein
My costume is inspired in Dr Finkelstein from Tim Burton’s the Nightmare Before Christmas.
The head is divided in 3 parts: the cranium, the brain and the helmet . The cranium is made with foam and covered in fabric. The brain is also made with foam but it’s covered and painted with liquid latex. Finally the helmet is made with styrofoam.

Re: Prop Coins - Silver Shekels
Hi Jon,
Molding and casting your cons is a good approach. You'll most likely want a 2 part silicone mold with the parting line along the center of the outside edge of the coin.
One technique you can try is cold casting with metallic powders. For this, you dust the inside of your silicone mold with a metal powder that matches the piece you are trying to replicate, shake out any excess powder, then pour in a dark-pigmented resin. The result is a thin layer of metal on the surface of your casting that can be buffed to a nice shine. Many mold-making/casting companies sell metal powders for cold casting.
