Introducing the first (and maybe only) 2014 cosplay rig: MTMTE Pharma
I just realized that I have four friends on here (including myself which is kind of weird when I think about it)...eh whatever. I'm too shy to actually talk to anybody. Anyway, I finally got around to taking pictures of what was completed so far on this rig. Unfortunately I'm returning to college tomorrow and will have little time to work on these pieces. I may get around to doing his head or hips as they require smaller pattern pieces than his chest and back but I'm not sure.
Arms
Side
Top
Back
Front/Side
I had to do these guys twice. I realized that the back of Pharma's forearm had some details that I had left off. This was the least complicated part of the rig. I liked how simple the arms are in comparison to everything else on his body.
Shoulders
Front
Side
Back
Ignore the background stuff, it's all the stuff that we have left from our dog. This was the most fun so far. I love his shoulders, especially the little wings. I already know that I'll have to use fishing wire and foam core to keep the wings from flapping about and for structural support. The wings will be constructed just like how I made the arm wings for my Senator Shockwave rig. I had the idea to use an empty toilet paper roll for the jointing between the wing and shoulder. It was the exact size I needed and needed no modding at all (unlike the wing joint I used for the Senator rig). Right now, the vents flap about but once I get to work on the actual rig, they'll be glued down and will look nice.
Legs
Front
Side
Back
I hate this piece so far. It's given me the most trouble and it's not even complete yet. Missing are the last ring at the bottom, his actual foot, and all the side and back kibble. I despise the way the knee piece came out and if I had time I would have made it better. It's too fat at the bottom and it just doesn't look right. At least my leg fits through the tubing.
Alrighty, that's all I have for now!
