This Dark Souls cosplay by Cosarmor & Props won top prize at the Emerald City Comic Con earlier this month with this Dragon Slayer Ornstein ensemble, and for good reason: itās practically an actual suit of armour.
Cosarmor tells me the suit āis 100% scratch built using primarily heat-formed expanded PVC (Sintra/Komatex), and most of the detailing was done with Magic Sculpt epoxy puttyā, while a small portion of the armor ncludes EVA foam and black Worbla.
The costume also uses weathered aluminium chainmail, āwet-felted wool dreadlocks, weathered silk fabric, and over 100 neodymium magnetsā. The helmās visor is also able to lock in position, as well as be removed.
As you can see, he won $1500 for his work!
