DIY Star-Lord Mask

For Halloween this year I made Star-Lord's mask (from Guardians of the Galaxy) out of cardboard based on a youtube tutorial I saw from youtube user Dali-Lomo. To see more of it click this link to my Halloween blog http://halloweenworks

Recent Projects

It's been a long time since I posted and I haven't been working on many of my usual creative projects very often either, but I figured I could finally take some time to show some photos of the few things the wrightworks brothers have made in the past few months.



This is an optimus prime figure that I made out of foam just as a fun side project. He is similar to the movie version of optimus that I made a while back, also with foam, but this G1 Optimus is a bit smaller, around 5.5 inches (14 cm) tall. He has wire threaded through his limbs for poseability and I painted him with some shiny metallic paint.




Next is a character that I think may be one of my best foam marvel miniatures yet; it is Kurse, based on his look in the movie Thor: the Dark World. I put a ton of detail into his look using lots of paints and paper pieces to give him a unique texture. This is also the same character I made a prosthetic mask of for halloween last year.




Here he is next to Malekith, his partner in villainy



Since Kurse is meant to have a charred or burned texture and color scheme I thought it would be cool to take some pictures of him in the ashes of this fire pit outside.







Next are some characters that took a while to make, General Zod and his fellow Kryptonian villains Faora and Nam-Ek, all from the movie Man of Steel. The three of them are also made with an extreme amount of detail which was accomplished by cutting out many tiny pieces of paper to create the jagged armor plates that they wear. The transluscent helmets that Zod and Faora wear are made from dried Elmers craft glue and they are removable.
