I cannot tell you how good it feels to finally have a good update for this shit! FIANALLY! After so many months and so many prototypes and setbacks, I have finally reached the home stretch for my #mercuryblackcosplay. Here are the main two reference images I had to work with(back view has been edited for better lighting). Unlike with Ember Celica which had a 3d model to see every angle and all that, these bastards didn't and we a test of my skills. It was frustrating since I wasn't super consistent like I wanted to be but I'm finally at a good spot! Mercury's grieves, which I'm working on a name for, were far more difficult than my Ember Celica and I know I'll want to redo them as I improve, the same with Ember Celica. But for now I'm quite pleased with it, imperfections and all. I also did a costest for him and while my wig isn't the best I probably could have done, I'm okay with it. I still have to see how it'll hold up for the flight to the States. Hope it doesn't die in transit. All in all, it's been a damn good and productive Saturday. #rwby #roosteetth #cosplay #foamsmith #foamweapons #propmaking #mercuryblack #cosplaysaturday #costest #progress #notbad #memereference #meme #cosplaymeme https://www.instagram.com/p/BzB5jCwj9GP/?igshid=1827pdspgjlrg
