Dai-X Costume (in progress)

Post by Zordon »

I've been busy over the last few months with the moving of houses and sorting out legal matters.Heres my latest project for the fandom. I'll be wearing this at amecom in leicester later this year.Andy, Piers and Shane feel free to use these pics for your site's my stuff is now your stuff since I closed down the site last year.Having made a few helmets this past month I thought i'd try having a pop at my childhood mecha Big Dai-XDai-X featured on a japanese puppet show Star Fleet. He was a transforming mecha made up of 3 ships.Inspired by CorazonAzul's Megazord costume here is a show picture and the helmet picturesCheers

I'll do some more on it tomorrow, and have the X fitted to the front. Also need to add the lower boxes to the sides of the helmet.

Cool! Pity I'm not going to Amecon this year (might go to the anime con in Northern Ireland...not decided yet). A Star Fleet cosplay group would be cool (given my long hair, I'd probably have to crossplay Lamia!) although none of the kids would know what it was from...[Happosai]
