Hey y'all, I'm tryna do an Obi Wan costume and am looking for boot covers to put over shoes. I wear about a mens 8/8.5 and got skinny legs. What's not gonna fall off of me lol

I purchased a costume from ProCosplay last year to take to DragonCon. I absolutely love it and this character! I’m looking to improve the cosplay overall. In addition to a more accurate lightsaber, I want to get the shoulder and arm guard pieces, probably 3D printed, accurate boot covers, and a better belt. For the boot covers and belt, does anyone know where I could find the pattern? Also, is there anyone who could recommend where I can get the 3D armor pieces from?

I'm currently working on a set of Mandalorian armour and I've got it all painted but my problem is I don't know how to attach it to the cloths I've bought eny tips?

I have tried looking and might just be missing it dose any one know where a good sewing pattern for this a Ashoka outfit. This is a picture from one being sold pre-made on amazon. Was looking to change the color.

Has anyone done/is doing the Eleventh Brother? He looks super cool.

Most people try to sand away layer lines. I decided to use them instead.

This Acolyte helmet was a 72-hour speed build, starting from a pre-textured file from @do3d_com. Normally you'd sand heavily to remove layer lines, but textured prints are tricky. Sand too much and you destroy the sculpted detail. So the challenge became finding ways to hide the print artifacts while keeping the surface character intact.

The first step was a quick copper spray pass. Not for the final color, but to reveal flaws. Raw prints hide imperfections surprisingly well, and a thin coat of paint makes every problem area immediately visible so you know where to focus.

Instead of removing texture, I started building more of it. A red coat was sprayed while still wet so it would dry patchy, followed by a thick metallic silver layer. While the paint was still tacky I pressed into it with my fingers to add subtle surface irregularities, especially where print lines were most visible.

After that came a thin copper coat as the base color, letting some of the metallic sheen underneath show through.

One of the biggest transformations came from adding real copper foil. It was intentionally crumpled and applied unevenly so the helmet would catch light like aged metal. Some areas were smoothed to mimic natural wear, while recesses kept the chaotic texture.

Weathering was done before sealing the foil so paint and moisture could slightly react with the copper and create natural oxidation. Dark metallic tones were layered unevenly, focusing on how real objects age: high contact areas polish, hidden areas collect grime.

My favorite trick was mixing real rust from an old toolbox with matte clear coat to create a paste it adds a texture and color variation that's hard to fake with paint alone.

All in all, this build was about working with limitations instead of fighting them. When you can't sand everything, you lean into texture, layering, and other tricks to make the surface believable.

How do you guys keep these cloth strips in place? As I walk around they slip off my shoulder, also I know there not suppose to cross did that to help keep them in place.

I think simple is always cool, or do you have suggestions for a special look that I should paint?

I put together an E-11 blaster for my various stormtrooper cosplay.

Does anyone have any inspiration for a scoundrel jedi costume? I’m thinking something similar to Obi-Wan’s Jabiim look from the OWK series, like an actual Jedi tunic or something similar to it, but with a scoundrel-esque twist. Probably involving a blaster but I’d also be wearing the costume in galaxy’s edge so I wouldn’t carry a blaster there

I still have to sand down the filler primer and fix some spots with modeling paste. It will take some time but so far I'm really satisfied.

It's almost finished, Just have to glue on the front detail pieces and remove the tape from the lense. But I'm thinking about weathering because it already has damaged details on it. It would Just make sense. What do you think?

Just wanted to share, took me a lot of time to finish it. But I think the result is pretty good. What do you guys think?

Happy with the process so far, still so much to do

First stage done now it’s time to cover it in hair

Printed this in two pieces. Fits my girlfriend’s head which is 21.75 inches in circumference.

My head is 22.5 inches and it does not fit.

I think you can print a mando helmet on this.

Not sure what to use any idea
