Description Here's what I've been working on in-between commissions and getting my eyes fixed over the past few weeks: more of my Megamind cosplay! (Anybody surprised? Anyone? *crickets*) >.>

The stand-up portion of the collar is made of pleather and coat hangers, and it attaches to the spiked part with Velcro (progress pics can be found here if you're curious). The belt buckle is just Sculpey epoxied to a wooden oval backing (progress pics to come later). (This was my first try ever working with Sculpey, so the buckle took me a couple of tries to get right, hehe.)

Comments and critiques are always welcomed, and thanks for following along with me!

Thank you, Aura! ^__^ <33 I'm glad you like it, and I'm definitely having fun putting all the little detail parts together. My next step is finishing the cape, which I'm trying to do now...

...AND I'm working on your song, I promise, but my voice has been all hoarse lately! So it sounds bad. :/ I'll let you know when it gets better (probably when there's less dust around, hehe).

Emmalyn In reply to Fensy [2011-07-22 17:22:37 +0000 UTC]

Local leather store! You can also buy them at motorcycle stores (like Harley Davidson, etc.) and online; look for motorcycle gear or dog collar spikes.
