We've already got some ideas for the xmen and league of legends characters' wardrobe (trying not to buy too many clothes, although I did find a yellow trenchcoat and some oxford shoes).
Was wondering if you guys have any tips or ideas that could help us! Especially with constructing the league of legends weapons =P
My knowledge of League of Legends is basically "I've heard of it, and I think it's some kind of PvP game and therefore I'm not interested", but it's always interesting to see what people's Sentinels costumes look like, seeing as I'm actually familiar with those characters (well okay, I used to watch the X-Men cartoon when I was a kid and I've seen the first two films but that's about the extent of my knowledge there as well) :D.
If you don't follow Greg Bilsland (from Wizards of the Coast) or his wife on Twitter, do so and ask questions. I think she does most of the actual work, but I've seen parts of discussions about how they did certain things.
The majority of my knowledge of League of Legends is "Man, those guys were so loud, almost every volunteer in the PAX Australia GTG booth lost their voice"
As far as props go, many people use foam or hardened paper, so as to keep them light (you don't want to be carrying something heavy around all con)
Also, http://cosplaying-on-a-budget.tumblr.com/ is where a lot of people submit instructions on how to make various costumes and props.
heyyyyyyyyyy, this is for Adam or possibly anyone else at GtG that knows what Expatriette and Setback look like in broken city.
we were just wondering what the back of expat and setback look like. is it pretty much mirror to the front (like the yellow/white doesn't wrap around the entire back area, just the obliques) or not?
it'd be a shame if our cosplay turned out to be quite different from what they're supposed to look like =D
They are mirrored, yes, so just the obliques. For an example, this is what I put together for the miniature. And Expatriette's is the same (can be seen on Devastating Aurora).
