Ghost point of view:
Taking to the next level of building with foam, I was seraching around for a good costume and came across of a complete armour of a Samurai. This was provided by SKS Props in PDF. I then was able to print out these templates and start drawing onto the foam. The foam thickness was ranged from 4mm-6mm.
With clear instruction videos also provided by SKS Props on YouTube, it was very easy for a first attempt with foam to build up. This was stuck together with hot glue, and once dried, was then primed over in jet black. Then to add special details, the other colours used were Red and Gold.
After mesuaring everything to my height and width, I added more detail’s of sewed rope to look more ethentic. I also made the Kimo and Hakama to make it all more ethentic to the real samurai of what they would of worn back in those times.
This was the final piece at Birmingham Comic Con 2025. Along with prop swords, I felt very proud of how this turned out.
Ducky was not orignally going to be dressed up because she wanted me to be the main star. However, i sewed for her a Hakama and had her come with me as a Samurai Warrior lady. Here is the both of us together with her homemade mask, prop sword and fan.
