Godzilla 2000 Costume Complete

WARNING: LOUD SOUNDS (Sorry For The Inconvenience)
Loud @ 00:34 and a Few Themes Later in the Video.
Kitsune Kon 2023 Masquerade, My first ever costume. A lot of learning time so it took longer than I expected.
Sorry if the audio is off, I'm unsure what to look for and apply in videos.
This is the short Version of all I went through, and I will eventually make one or more detailed videos, if I can do it properly.
I spent a lot of time and effort and even with help I barely finished it on time.
Thanks for everyone who helped, t'was fun.
Please check out some of the videos I looked up that helped me that's linked below.

FUTURE: I plan to fix the head, it was smooth and biger than I expected so I might re-do it from scratch, which should be easier the second time around. I want to make the skin more rigid, it has those lines buy it seemed to lack bumpiness, especially the chest. I'll add color to the fins although it looks cool as black, and maybe add some LED lights. Anything you see that might not look good or off is because the crunch time of 3 months was not enough unfortunately, but next project would be something completely else, maybe in like 2 or 3 years, it's yet to be decided.

You've truly outdone yourself; your portrayal of the iconic movie character Godzilla was remarkable. The attention to detail in your costume, coupled with your adept voice modulation and convincing mouth movements, was truly impressive. I look forward to seeing more of your exceptional creations in the future. Gercekten harika video olmus, tüylerim diken diken oldu, kalabaligi iyi costurmussun, gercekten gurur verici, tebrikler 🦖

belki birlikte Iron-Man yapabiliriz, ilerde XD

[@StarFallCosplay]

You did a wonderful job, we loved watching you walk by the roadshow booth

[@BlackSunpahntom]

Wow. Respect boy

[@voronOsphere]

Amazing!

[@TheWatermelonSquad1000]

Cool

[@AtomicStickFigure]

Awesome work good sir! Glad everything came together, some elements you did better than I did :D

[@Crainage1056]

It's crazy the amount of different ideas on how to make it better AFTER its complete. I wish I knew how tough the latex would have been. I would have chosen to do a Godzilla that stands straight up instead of one that leans a bit forward.

[@AtomicStickFigure]

@@Crainage1056 yeah, that was a harsh lesson with the Hyper Godzilla, it was built in a crouch and it would have been better if I'd have done the body base upright and just sculpted it so that the outer frame work was in a hunch

[@Wormy_tech]

Epic!

[@mercedesmontenegro6035]

Wow😮❤

[@Awsomeguyfilms]

OH MY GOD DUDE YOU NEED WAY WAY MORE SUBS LIKE THIS IS AMAZING IT SHOWS YUE AMMOUNT OF WORK AND TIME YOU PUT INTO THIS SUIT DUDE SUCH A GREAT JOB hope to see you at g-fest at the costume thing🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Crainage1056]

I would have liked to but unfortunately this is a 2 car haul, although g-fest is half a day drive for me, the suit is also very large. Maybe of I ever make a smaller and lighter, this one is about 80 pounds lol.

[@dingelhopper1179]

Great work! Everything in the suit goes together so well! Although I do see two flaws, (I’ve never made anything like this in my life so forgive me if it seems rude or inaccurate in any way) the head is a little blocky and smooth compared to everything else, and the hatch opening and closing as you walked was a little distracting. But other than that it was increasingly! 9/10👍

[@Crainage1056]

Yes, it is my one and only cosplay ever. the head was like that because I do lack the experience, if I gave myself more than a year, probably would have been a better idea. Crunch time really prevented me from doing more. And the hatch was so I didn't suffocate lol. Thank you for the complements. If i do make improvements, I want to re-do the entire head, smaller perhaps, then the hands which i can't draw or make, then light up and color the fins grey.

[@playerthree38]

This is so awesome

[@insquirrel]

The moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.

[@DanielO-os5bw]

To Crainage1056: um 😐 hiya 👋 how are ya ? Perfect 🤩 Godzilla 🦎 mascot but Ghost Godzilla or Comic Godzilla are my fav Kaijus of all time

[@tovartheawesome]

Did you have a moment of heat stroke or did you just simply trip at the end? I'm glad the crowd was still supportive despite the fall. Very well made suit!

[@Crainage1056]

Thanks. I actually tripped over my own feet. I didn't take a wide enough step and fell. It was actually so soft, it was safer falling while inside the suit than no suit.

[@tovartheawesome]

@@Crainage1056 Awesome! Glad to hear it wasn't a heat stroke. How hot was it in there in the end? How long could you be in it before you NEED a break? I noticed some shots with you walking around with the back open for what I can only assume was for airflow.

[@Crainage1056]

@@tovartheawesome Yes that was for air, and main enterance. there was some slits at the throat of it, plus 4 portable fans on the inside. It was still hot, I ended up walking about 45 inutes all the way to the Judging room, another 10 minutes in it at that time, then I had kinda had it on another 15 behind the stage, waiting to go on stage. It was a fun day. My shoulders were sore for a week.

[@random_native]

@@TheWatermelonSquad1000 ok foam maybe like 20 bucks for a big bed size one and paint maybe like around 40 if you buy afew colours then glue and glue gun around 15 so in total maybe 80 to 150 to make which is cheaper than buying
