Cyberpunk Samurai Jacket version 2, and why it took me five months to create

You can support my work and get access to dozens of my 3D printable prop models and all my exclusive content at / itsandyvalentine , or find all my other socials at www.thecupid.club
Early in the year I qualified as one of the finalists of CDProjektRed's Cyberpunk Cosplay Content, and for the finals I decided that I wanted to remake and improve my jacket. I expected this to take me a few weeks. It actually took five months, and this video will likely show you why.

Could easily make a fortune making and selling these. Hell, I'd buy one lol

[@reaper0982]

I definitely want one omg!!!

[@nukaghoula]

Trouble is, if he priced it fairly to account for the amount of time, skill and effort he puts in to them then no one would buy them

[@christiansantamaria7233]

Pretty sure someone can’t sell replicas of video game items without first getting consent from the creators and at that point they will heavily tax percentages of all sales if they allowed it so he would loose/ bearly make any money selling them.

[@christiansantamaria7233]

@@nukaghoula yup that too these would easily be $1k - $3k with all the leather and wiring

[@nukaghoula]

@@christiansantamaria7233 I'm not even referring to the materials cost - the actual labor and time he's put in to gaining the skills to be able to create this add an easy couple of zeros to the price tag people expect to see (thanks to slave labor Chinese companies)

[@akumabito2008]

Wow! The new jacket looks production-ready!

[@seekerofgiants3415]

This came out absolutely stunning. The details and quality really shine. It looks like it was taken right out of the video game. Fantastic job!

[@jaytothesun99]

Dude this is seriously the coolest most authentic detailed homemade cosplay type gear I’ve ever seen.

[@meghpal]

Amazing work, it really looks like as good as it can be!

[@nicholaskoscinski5517]

The effort put into this is amazing, huge respect , I do agree with the rest of the comments that surely there would be people willing to buy the jacket for a decent amount of eddies;)

[@sonphan2188]

The lengths for doing it proper is super insporational! really makes me wanna start sooner with costplay stuff :3

How did you do the collar itself and how does it attatch? Really wanna try to make one myself someday!

[@mysterymenz99playstation13]

I'm not sure where else I could ask this but would it be weird to wear this in public? I got my own one I bought and would hate to have it the closet until comic con or something.

[@jany4201]

Where did you bought yours?

[@steevzie1513]

I love this but do you have a tutorial on the electronics?

[@AberrantVision]

Man I respect the dedication of the 800 quid invest into the industrial sewing machine! Are you also gonna make non-cosplay clothing any time?

[@Oregonxsaint]

The first model looks like it's seen some shit and the second looks like the repro rogue gave to V as a gift. You put in some massive effort and it shows.

[@StarsCloudsRainbows]

Hi! Is there any chance You would ever reconsider to reupload the STLs for this project? I couldn't find them in Your etsy shop, cheers!

[@matricola8836]

I wanted to ask if it is possible to buy one.

[@blaiddenjoyer3206]

Hi Andy! I have no idea if you'll respond, but I'm trying to make my own Samurai jacket and your stl files are so immensely helpful (all of your old work). Though there's a problem with 3d printing stuff since I don't have my own (3d printing machine, that is). Long story short, do you remember whether the parts should be in millimeters or inches? I assumed the first but wanted to be sure before I ordered any parts. Anyways, ciao!

[@itsAndyValentine]

Everything's in mm bud. Good luck with the build

[@GR1M_]

This is one of the only jackets where the collar isnt wayy too big

[@paigelooney6117]

How much for your version of the jacket id love to buy your version.

Where should i buy it?

[@RayS696]

I'd love to wear smth like that but I don't really feel like I personally could pull it off without getting funny looks...

[@kadenmedley1367]

We’re moving into a new age. The general public, sure, weird looks, but I have no doubt certain places, parties, concerts, etc. where you wouldn’t stand out in the slightest.

Made a 3D printed base that sits under the leather
