#roadhogs hook

Week 8-9

Guess who was so engrossed in cosplay, they forgot to take pictures while making it!🙃🙃🙃

But anyway, i bought some sport adhesive black wrap and wrapped it around the handle of the hook. I also bought a chain link to attach the chain to the hook.

I bought 10ft of a black plastic chain from amazon and painted it to look like weathered iron.

I also tried making the chain spool out of foam, modpodge, hot glue, and a toilet paper roll. I really wish i would've remembered to take pictures because idk if its clear as to what i did.

But im also in the process of paitning it so it's not completely done.

And finally i found a substitute for the tire that sits on roadhogs shoulder pad. I bought a circular floral base, cut it in half, hot glued the halves together then carved a tire shape out of it. I then sealed the entire thing with modpodge, painted it, then finally hot glued the piece onto the armour.

Its a really good thing its light because i didnt want to have to carry an actually tire on my shoulder.😰

Thankfully, im close to wrapping up this cosplay. All i need to do is paint the chain spool and finish the shoes!!!!

Week 6

I began painting my cosplay this week as well as using the leftover worbla to make the nails in the hook.

I also forgot to put the bolts onto the base of the hook, so I took some foam and hot glued them on. I also hot glued the nails in too because I couldn't risk them falling off when they dried.

Finally I double coated the new parts with mod podge and it's now ready to be painted!

Total time: 4 hrs

Week 5

So, I decided to seal all of my props with kwik seal to cover up all the obvious holes in them. I should've used the clear kind instead of the white, but I'm painting over it anyway so it didn't really matter.

I then covered the hook in black worbla that I ordered on Amazon.

After everything cooled down, I covered everything in 2 coats of mod podge(mixed with a bit of water).

Overall, after 9 hrs of work and burning myself twice with the heat gun(😖😖), I can now paint the armour.

End of week 3:

I finished up carving the hook as well as the armour and this is the end product!

Hopefully when I sand the hook it'll turn out a bit better.

End week 2:

I bought some Eva foam boards on Amazon (about $22), and re did what I did in with the first foam I had.

I only used up 2 out of the 7 boards so I will most likely be making the armour as well. I actually managed to carve out the arm piece that roadhog has on his glove.

Over all after 4 hrs this is the end product!!!!
