Hi there, are you still open for cosplay props commissions? I'd like to have a pair of earrings or two of the same design if possible!

I can't remember the dimensions off the top of my head but it was a good size, tis was made to scale for someone around 5' 10" tall so I'd guess around the average size of a normal shield.

how did u get teh gold paint so shiny? is it a special paint? spray? type? curious cuz iim building a triforce and would like to get insight into getting it more reflective.

JayCosplay In reply to ajb3art [2013-03-02 18:08:12 +0000 UTC]

It's a Gold Car Vinyl and it heaters and then stretched over the triforce. There is no spray paint you can buy over the counter that will give you a true gold/chrome finish, unless you go to a special centre to have it coated, but that's very very expensive.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: John, your stuff is amazing!
Keep up the good work and you might be able to make a living out of making props alone at this rate!

It was all stack cards, and the backed with rotocast resin, then fiberglass resin on the front and auto body filler.
