Oh man, with all the crossovers and pop culture references, including stargate hommages, costumes can vary from Ash, all the way to Santa Clause.

I loved this show, and the two movies that came out a while back to pick up the series again.

Can't wait to see how you pull off the "eye" and Gun.
Johnny Rico
The one i am debating on either use a springer g-36 with some moods on it or maybe a scorpin pistol todo it. or i can just make one form scrath out of wood. i am not sure. Any ideas would help. The eye is also a problem i can do the scare over my eye but i am goign to see if there are any contacts out there i can use for it. I amAlso thinkign maybe velcro to attach the gun to the leg or maybe use one of those cellphone clips to hold it on not sure yet but i am workign one it. Reboot

Nah, she's not really orange. That's jsut ordinary flesh color.

You don't need the bra either: she's actually only about a b cup.

However, there is the fish scale outfit....and the blue hair.
Johnny Rico
if anyone has any ideas on the gun matrix uses let me know i am thinkig either a g36 or a scorpion pistol but any ideas let meknow i really want to make the gun look good.

thanks

OK, here is my take on the Reboot gun:
Screen cap


Drawing

Humm, the magazine needs to be thinner and the bottom angle more pronouned by about 30 degrees. Muzzle is a bit long, but you could use an M-16 muzzle this way, otherwise its about half a long. The rest looks pretty good given the quality of the screen cap I had to work with.
Johnny Rico
thanks dan, i really apriciate the help you gave me for the gun. i am going to start on that and the trident this weekend since i will have my dad machine shop for awhile

thanks again
lostncybr
You got the top and bottom figured out, right?
Johnny Rico
the break down for Matrix is
blue pants with a red strip i got that, i got a black vest and am workignon the gun and sholder pad thing


for Andria the pants will be streck pants and the top will either be a full coverage bra for the lovely woman wearing ti or i may make it out of a modifyied baby tie the lady can wear over a bra that way nothing pops out and no one gets any idea of undoing things, but i am just gettign my plan doen for it i will be ordeign the piece i need by thursday and suggestions will gladly be taken
Johnny Rico
Oh one more thing anyone know were i can get a gold color contact lens for my eye cheap if so post and let me know
Templar
Are you going to have a crushed Glitch as well?

As for keeping Gun on your leg, perhaps some well placed magnets sewn into the outer seam of the right leg and placed inside the side of Gun would help give that holster-less appearance. Whenever he'd hang it up, Gun'd just sort of click onto his leg, dunno how practical this would be for you, but it's worth considering. smile.gif

Hmmmm, Tempest as Andraia, interesting.

All you guys'll need is a big red dog to play Frisket.

This looks like it'll be an awsome project.
Johnny Rico
the gun i am gong to use either magnets or Velcro to hold in place what i am doing is sewing some 1 inch black webbing around mt thigh like in the picture and attach the magnets or Velcro to that. And as for frisket well i was thinking about that and who knows may have a suprise up my sleeve for that well see. I als am getting the cheap plastic chain from a costume store for the belt on matrix i am actually starting the putting together of the Andria costume Wednesday night a good friend of mien who is tempest size is going to help me out also she wants a pair of the pants for herself, do not know why but oh well. well any more comments keep them coming i will post pics and the costume starts and move forward.
Johnny Rico
well the left shoulder pad is now done for matrix and here it is, I know the wire and Icons are missing but i am doing pics as i go so enjoy

adicat
i just looked up Andraia in my "The Art of Reboot" that i picked up at Anime North... She definatly has a tint to her skin, i am thinking it looks like a tan, basically.

The self tanning cream by Loreal does not streak and is safe to use on your face and body both, i think that would work just fine... Tempest looks WHITE like me, ( i bet the sun equals burn for you too!) so tanning cream might be your safer option.

As to the bra size.... that is not a b cup, *sigh*

this is going to be so exciting to see at DCON, i cant wait
Johnny Rico
an chance u can scan and post or scan and email me the pic u have of her or of Matrix i could always use more reference pics. Also until further notice i will be using a cheap springer G-36 for gun due to the fack my dad machine shop flooded last night in Chicago storm so oh well also anyone got any ideas where i cna get a gold colored contact lens , no Prescriptions for cheap ?
Johnny Rico
here is the finished shoulder pad for matrix


Here is "gun"


Also here is both side my side


Glitch should be done soon too

That sounds lots more practical than makeup...although what will be said at work might be a consideration....

I think you ought to contact Kryolan to see about getting a buttload of green makeup...
theirs is about the least nasty and irritating to the skin.
