A sneak peek of Redpool
Added 2016-10-26 20:49:12 +0000 UTCThis is my Redpool Playboy Bunny costume. I just got the photo back from Kelly Gardina Photography. Sharing with the cool kids before it makes its way onto social media. You also get the "inside baseball" on the costume.
I was initially going to do Redpool as a bodysuit but I got an insane idea to do it Playboy Bunny style. When you're doing a Deadpool tribute you have to follow the insane idea. I made it a little too roomy so I may take it in a bit or build a second one for the days I don't binge on chimichangas and margaritas.
I bought special Deadpool swords in hopes they'd be awesome. The swords are cool but the back scabbard sucks. The straps suck. The swords are too heavy to heave around a convention floor for me. I found a great tutorial to DIY a set with a scabbard using Wonderflex and PVC tubing.
I bought this mask from a European vendor and it's pretty good. I tried making one using a decent tutorial but I'm not quite satisfied. I'd like to make a Daredevil-style half mask so I can wear glitter lips, eat chimichangas and not feel so claustrophobic. The Deadpool mask is so restrictive.
You can't see the rhinestones on my gun or my knife. (I really need more guns. Give me all the guns.) You also can't see the rhinestoned white grenade I use for a tail.
