Skull Knight full costume in the works

Hey everyone. This has been along time project that I'm getting close to finishing, hopefully in time for Otikon 2011 or Dragon*Con if all else fails for the deadline. Hope you like it.

It's mostly sculpted out of clay with silicone molds, then cast out of fiberglass.

New update: shoulder pads tacked in place and bottom spikes, before leg armour. These are just held in place to get a feel for the whole costume. They might be a tad uneven right now, till I fully mount them.

Well, today was the dress rehearsal before Dragon*Con. A few things to take care of. First, I dropped the chest plate and broke off one of the spikes--easy fix though. I think it's funny that it's the same spike that broke off in the manga. Had to trim the back t get it on, need tighter strapping for the legs to hold the armour up.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Well I did the test run for "Skully" at Dragon*Con over the weekend and had a really good response. Some changes have to be made to make it more comfortable and mobile for the cosplayer. I had to search the web to find a good photo that was taken, because I make the mistake of having no handler with me:
