It looks so cool!!! Also, did anyone notice the evolution of her snake tattoo throughout the video? As she makes the molds, the tattoo just line work that looks fresh and peely, then during the outro, the tattoo is all shaded and complete :) I would love to see the whole thing- it looks so beautiful!
Now it's easy to understand why movie prop makers, costume designers, etc. are just so important in immersing you in the world and why it is considered an art (sometimes a mix of art and science) form.
This is amazing!!!!! Probably my favourite piece I wear in monster hunter. Geez the skills used to make it...and such good ideas to make the pieces detachable!
Cookie Gaming I’m a stay at home mom, don’t ask my husband for any $, and still find the $ for cosplay, don’t give up so easily !💕 thrift shop wigs soaked in bleach, washed, ect. The foam clays not super expensive, sharpies to dye things and rubbing alcohol to blend the colors, old sheets, old markers, ect ❤️
This is very advanced prop making, but you can achieve similar results with cheaper materials combined with, well, also a lot of effort. But there is always a way. :) Not saying cosplay per se isn't expensive, depending on the costumes or materials you limit yourself with, but there are other hobbies out there that are also expensive and, let's say, not all of them can teach you how to (creatively)fix nearly all broken things in your home...
A tip for cling wrap. Make a largeish rectangle of it, a nice useable size and then take painter's tape and make a border. This gives you a good useable peice that you can save and use plenty of times if it's the good stuff, and it won't stick to itself and turn into an annoying ball. You can always grab the edge and undo it.. but the tape actually gives it some structure. It's perfect for laying texture, and stuff like that. Hope this helps anyone, I've used this technique before. Getting the tape onto the edges can be finicky.. but it's worth it.
Since you went through hell and got a mold of it, would you possibly sell unpainted fresh castings of just the skull and horns? I would totally be interested in buying
step 1: get really good at sculpting step 2: now you can make this helmet by following these instructions. Good job you are super skilled and it looks awesome
You are so talented and pretty , and your tutorials are amazing !! I mean , you do serious stuff and your costumes are of professional quality , use all kinds of materials and explore a lot of different techniques all the time , your costumes are never made with just one material and one technique :D How are YOU not the most well known European cosplayer is beyond me !
Wowza, a completely new cosplay technique to explore. I would have never in my whole career think of making silicone molds from sculptures. I think I'll have to subscribe. :)
it's a huuuuge work..; and the result is unbelievable. Congratulation for your talent ! I'm not a cosplayer, but I like talent and you have a great talent in sculpting :)
As someone who got a BFA in ceramic sculpture- the way you make moulds and everything is crazy! I've never even considered anything like this- I usually just do "traditional" methods.
As always, you make it all look so easy. I'd love to know how you learned your skills and how long you've been developing them. Creators like you deserve full credit for the hours and months and years of learning and practice it takes to reach your level of mastery. And you look fantastic in the helmet and costume!!
I really admire people who are able to do all this. Like I would love to be able to but I'm pretty sure this project costs over $200 by itself to make. The detail is incredible and I love the final result!
This turned out so awesome, it's breathtaking :D If anyone is looking for a "simpler" way to do this due to money or skill level: try EVA Foam! No casting or mold making, super light weight, just the foam + a heat gun + scalpel + glue and maybe a rotary tool. It's great to tip your toes into bigger headpieces :)
This is amazing! I'd love to see your work in movies! The helmet reminded me of this awesome film called Pathfinder, about vikings vs native American warriors.
An advert selling this has just popped up on my news feed on facebook. A company called select goods are selling it for £33 or something similar. And they are using an edited version of this video . I can send you a link to the video advert if you want as I saved it .
I'm making a bone armor set!! I'm making mine out of worbla and eva foam...wish I had seen this earlier... but I can try again in the future!! Thank you for this motivating and inspiring video!!
Amazing job,Laura- absolutely love it,& thank you so much for all the materials info.I never would have thought to simply use foil as a basis for sculpting- genius! 😃 Thanks again!
This really helped me a lot I am going to be making a dragon skull helmet and your process seemed pretty straight forward witty great results! Thank you for sharing this!
OMG this is officially my favorite video on RUclips! You are AMAZING! Every aspect of this skull helmet is beautiful! This tutorial is put together so well and is very informative. Also, you are gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing your talent. I can't wait to attempt my own costume accessories soon. =)
I like to see people sculpt with monster clay, i always learn a little like that. I done a few tests with monster clay medium and I get good results, I might try the soft. Good looking helmet btw.
Hi! So I had an idea for you.. for the bone armor you should make a whole outfit for it, and make it kinda like the one in your photos because I would love to see a whole set, even a cool knife or anything you like, but if you don’t want to you don’t have to.
As someone who has gone through a similar arduous process, yes these suckers are HEAVY. Your poor little neck is meant to hold up what you have. Anything more than that and its going to hate you. My bone like head (not Monster Hunter) was made near identical to this and the head easily weighs 2lbs. That doesn't sound like much, but have one on your head for more than an hour and you will notice a gigantic difference
Oje! Ich hoffe du hast gewartet bis die frische Tätowierung abgeheilt war bevor du sie komplett überschminkt hast! 🙈😜 Voll professionelle Maske übrigens. Echt toll!
I feel like I can only follow what you're saying for so long. It's not you, it's that I can only keep up with what I'm familiar with. I've always wanted to do stuff like this but I've never been given a chance. I feel like the only thing I could do is try to use what I have to impress someone who can basically give me free stuff so I can impress more people who will give me more free stuff so I can start selling it and start to afford things on my own but that'll never happen. But I see people like you do this and it's just so... Magical to me. I just don't feel cut out for anything else and this is what I really want to do with my life but it'll never happen for me. I don't want to flip burgers the rest of my life at a job I hate. I want to do cosplay and DIY tutorials like you and so many others on RUclips right from home so I can always be there for my family. God it's tough when you have to stay strong but you feel like such a burden and it's only a matter of time before everyone else starts seeing you that way too.
@@lilsix9218 well, money has been the very thing that stopped me from cosplaying so far, so it's going to take some time before I can try it out. Someday I'm sure I'll do it 🥰
The silicone looks like frosting hahaha. Mmmm, frosted skulls. As someone with frizzy hair, watching that beautiful smooth wig hair get teased like that hurt my soul a little bit, but the end result is worth it! Very amazing.
Excellent work as Always!That helmet reminds me a bit on Mola Ram`s helmet from “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom”.Would like to see more battle-damage on it like broken tusks and horns, scratches, stiches with leather straps, carved runes into the teeth etc.
Showed in my recommended and you got a sub. I've done one cosplay project so far and it was awesome but starting out is pricey. I had alot of fun making it. I'm hoping to get something done soon. Great content!
That helmet looks amazing, im a butcher and i tried carving out a real skull from a Highlander Bull, but it turned out the horns are waaay to big :/ Sadly there is no animal with such Perfect horns and teeth :D
i will never ever again look at a piece on etsy and be like " wow thats expensive" seeing the work that goes into this? jesus lord
Bambi tbh a $20 crappy silly mouse statue made of salt clay doesn’t seem like it has the right price.
Yea I looked up that clay, it's not cheap xD
Yeah, people have a tendency to think art is made with a magic wand.
Bambi good
Poiszyn but is it worth it? No.
I have no idea why this was in my recommendations but I am so glad I watched your video.
This is beyond amazing!
Same here!
Samee
I love this channel!!
It looks so cool!!! Also, did anyone notice the evolution of her snake tattoo throughout the video? As she makes the molds, the tattoo just line work that looks fresh and peely, then during the outro, the tattoo is all shaded and complete :) I would love to see the whole thing- it looks so beautiful!
i noticed that too! it was fun to watch the progress
Looks awesome! Great job!
Me at start of the video: "I might try this!"
Me half way through the video: "I'm way too lazy for this!"
Daniel Campbell my Problem isn’t laziness I’m just not that skilled and too poor to buy materials 😂😂
This. I had no idea it was so involved!
Now it's easy to understand why movie prop makers, costume designers, etc. are just so important in immersing you in the world and why it is considered an art (sometimes a mix of art and science) form.
I only cast the resin... the Clay gorming is nothing for me...😐
Me half way through the video: "is easier to go to the local slaughterhouse and buy a cow head..."
Is just a joke!!!
I mean I have neighbors too...
This is amazing!!!!! Probably my favourite piece I wear in monster hunter.
Geez the skills used to make it...and such good ideas to make the pieces detachable!
Do you watch cosplay videos?
Me:Yes
Do you want to cosplay?
Me:Yes
Do you have the money for it?
Me: No
Are you going to actually cosplay?
Me: no...

I would also be very interested in this.
I too am interested
This is the most cool thing I've seen in my life.
TRUE

Good job you are super skilled and it looks awesome
"As you can see, I just built a skull...."
I'm out already! :D
Seeing the paint job for these molds is always my favorite part for some reason lol something about the final details is so satisfying
I really love it when you work with Clay! It always becomes very awesome!
You are so talented and pretty , and your tutorials are amazing !!
I mean , you do serious stuff and your costumes are of professional quality , use all kinds of materials and explore a lot of different techniques all the time , your costumes are never made with just one material and one technique :D
How are YOU not the most well known European cosplayer is beyond me !
I could watch this ten times on a loop. It's just so mesmerizing!
A moving and detachable masterpiece! You Lady are a fine artist! Bravo!
Omg I love it ♥_♥ !
Wahnsinn! Ich bin immer so begeistert davon was Cosplayer alles (er-)schaffen können :D sieht unfassbar toll aus!
Great work. Looks really good on you. Two weeks for a single cosplay helmet... Wow!

A Bone Helmet tutorial is a dream to me since the first Monster Hunter!!
Amazing video, congratulations!
Dude, this is so awesome! There are no words to explain how cool ur work is!
This would make such a cool wall mount. Amazing work.
This Helmet is for sure worth the money and the time you spent on it. It's just breathtaking for me :o
The rabbit hole brought me here......it never disappoints!!

Amazing Helmet!
This is amazing! I'd love to see your work in movies! The helmet reminded me of this awesome film called Pathfinder, about vikings vs native American warriors.
Thank you for this! I've been looking for a good video with removable horns for my dragonplate helmet build. Great work as always!
I just found you, I am so glad I did. THANK YOU SO MUCH for making these videos!!!
Awesome talent here! I wish I could afford to hire you to perform in one of my future music videos in that costume 👍👌
I've watched this so many times just to get the hair down, now it's the style I usually go with :)
Not gonna lie. That was a dope helmet build.
Bewundernswert, wie eine so schöne Frau, solche Meisterwerke schaffen kann. Ich bin sehr beeindruckt.
The mask looks so good with her hair down
Such an amazing video and such an amazing helmet! Thank you for taking your time to make and post these videos

Wow
I respect the amount of work it took to get it together
Awesome

When I saw the photoshoot at the end I was mind blown, Those were photos I saw Awhile back from that same cosplay
This really helped me a lot I am going to be making a dragon skull helmet and your process seemed pretty straight forward witty great results! Thank you for sharing this!
Mega - richtig klasse - ein tolles und kreatives Handwerk, ich bin schwer begeistert. :-)
i would keep the hair off and just use this as a prop in my home!! It's beautiful!! Great Job!!!
OMG this is officially my favorite video on RUclips! You are AMAZING! Every aspect of this skull helmet is beautiful! This tutorial is put together so well and is very informative. Also, you are gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing your talent. I can't wait to attempt my own costume accessories soon. =)
Antiquing paint works really well too for darker resin casts as well! :D Fantastic work!
Que espectacular trabajo, quisiera ser capaz de hacer algo parecido pero todos esos materiales deben costar mucho y ni hablar del talento manual. Wow
The final result and the video are AMAZING ! Thank you for sharing your work ! 😘
I didn't realize untill now how cool the Bone Helmet is. Good job indeed.

Thanks for the video, it was really helpful
I’m just trying to figure out how to make horns for a cosplay-
Thanks whoever made this
oh my god that is amazing
watching this video made me really want to try make something like this myself someday
Absolutely loved watching the process on this! It was fun and I learned a good deal. Thank you for sharing it. The helmet is outstanding! :)
geil gemacht ihr versteht euer handwerk zu 100% macht weiter so daumen hoch wie immer ;)
Absolutely stunning job well done
You are incredibly knowledgeable and talented. All I can say is wow.

I didn't even ever cosplay and now I really want to try this out :0
This is so amazing! I love it!
Very impressive, keep up the good work! 😊
You have the plan to do cosplay
If yes you must have enough money to buy some materials that need for your costume.🙃
@@lilsix9218 well, money has been the very thing that stopped me from cosplaying so far, so it's going to take some time before I can try it out. Someday I'm sure I'll do it 🥰

That looks just like the real helmet in Monster hunter which in itself looks like a Deathclaw’s skull... IT’S AWESOME!!!
Absolutely Brilliant! Thank you for sharing this and your techniques with us.
Your such an amazing artist, I wish I could draw more than just stick figures.
OMG, awesome work 😱👍👍
It looks really good.

It looks amazing!! Really great job!
Wow thats awesome! Real Art :)
I came for the hair tutorial and got more than I bargained for. Was NOT disappointed.
That helmet looks amazing, im a butcher and i tried carving out a real skull from a Highlander Bull, but it turned out the horns are waaay to big :/
Sadly there is no animal with such Perfect horns and teeth :D
BerserkerGaroth You could actualy bought a real Head bone and just cast it...
That would be darned heavy to wear, too!
This video was awesome, loved the final outcome.
If I ever need a costume for my band, I'll know who to hire...
Keep up that amazing work!
Stunning work! 😍
Wow. That is a gorgeous piece. Great work!
Einfach mega... Du hast es echt drauf!
You are extremely talented and patient
dunno if anyone else has said this but that could totally work for a legend of zelda: breath of the wild barbarian helm too!
that looks so damn amazing... im SO jealous thats so gorgeous!!
I'm actually following your instructions. I made my own mannequin head and currently sculpting the head with foil. It's sooo hard!!
Wow, I've never seen one of these videos before, but this is something I could really get into
