For an upcoming con, I'm looking to make a Holy Mackerel for a Scout cosplay. However I'm a bit stumped on how to go about this. Clay, foam, or sewing a plush fish are options but I'd like to hear some other ideas and opinions before persuing something.

I also apologize is this should be in some other thread. I didn't see a prop thread in here anywhere. Thanks!

k so I'm new but want help. Going to cosplay as Scout and need a few tips to make the costume perfect.
An easy place to get the headset?
An easy way to make the scattergun?
Anything?

Squeek 04/07/11(Thu)00:48 No. 1250

Okay: Best bet is to use PVC, wood, lots of wood glue,and some superglue for the Scattergun. I'll see if my roommate kept the link to the tutorial she used to make a prop shotgun. If all else

Pants are easy to get if you've got a sports store near by. Used/new black baseball pants, cleats/running shoes, the cap, and long white socks can all usually be bought there for a reasonable price.

Think there's a tutorial on the board for the headset...not certain, it's the one part of my costume I've yet to make. If all else fails, be lazy and use the head piece that comes with the X-Box...It's not perfect, but a good stop gap for testing things out.

That help?

Gencon is almost here, I was wondering if anyone was going? I'll be there all 4 days cosplaying as a RED femheavy. You should come chat with me if you see me.

Otakon 2012 anyone?

We've been discussing Valve gatherings on the Cosplay.com forums and are thinking Friday/5PM/4th floor and Saturday/8PM/Indoor Fountains. (Will post an update if this changes.)

I'll be a BLU Medic with Medigun and stethoscope. Hope to see you there.

>>	Kid Hate!NcXBnSHZH2 07/25/12(Wed)17:36 No. 2654 Haven't posted in like a year and not cosplaying, but I'll be taking pictures and passing out cookies at one or both shoots. :3

Toon 07/30/12(Mon)17:18 No. 2655

BLU Medic here again. Fun times hanging out and getting to meet you people. You guys are a blast and I hope to see more of you in the future.

Vihtalaini (BLU Medic's wife/shoot organizer) will be posting the pics taken by our photographer at the shoots by around next Monday. I'll repost the link here once it's up.

Bonus facts: I have empirical evidence (mainly in the form of sore muscles) that Medic's Medigun + backpack require a great deal of strength/endurance particularly in the biceps and back/shoulder muscles. Especially so assuming his are made out of metal, rather than wood, plastic, and foam like mine. Fanartists/writers take note.

Anyone going to AX this year? I know we usually get at least a few people from around here.

The guy that usually runs the Valve shoot doesn't seem to get the idea that a lot of people were really unhappy with not only last year's shoot but the year before. Not to mention the times he's suggested for it aren't really best for me.

Either way, I figured maybe a TF2 only/centric shoot would be nice to have. I was thinking Sunday evening around 6 pm? Anyone else up for getting together then?

MrFreeman!KsSAk/XATI 06/27/12(Wed)18:35 No. 2631

I apologize for only thinking of coming here just now, but let me make this short.

Yes, last year's gathering was a catastrophe. I am to share in some of that blame. I have apologized to many for this, but my apologies can only go so far.

The "Unofficial" gathering hosted by myself and Pillz is scheduled for Day 2 at 10am at Site 2. This was in order to compromise with someone splitting off their own L4D group, which they are still keeping separate from the Valve gathering. Had I known this, I would not have compromised with them and would have worked with you guys instead.

There are no sanctioned AX gatherings, and the West Hall is to be used or occupied by the X-Games. Supposedly, the games shut down by around 7pm, so I am not sure if your gathering at 6pm may work.

I do not expect a large turnout for the 10am gathering, as there will be no attendee foottraftic and I can smell drama a mile away from the two separate gatherings, but those who can attend please do. We will have have something special in store for this gathering and you may even win prizes by unlocking crates1

I thought I might as well make a thread here.

The Ubersaw is (roughly) 21 inches and the tube can be taken out and filled with blue paper or blue (or red!) glow-sticks surrounded with something like baking paper.

Setting up shoot times/places right now as I have seen none on any of the forums (Cosplay.com / AN forums). The shoot is for ALL Valve love, not just TF2. Hopefully see ya there to say hello!

Friday: 5pm, Grassy Knoll between the con and the Doubletree (Aka that large grassy area with that log immediately to your right as you walk to the double tree under that covered crosswalk from the main convention center, before you cross the stream)

Saturday: 3pm (Same spot â€”^ )
