So excited to share my Lady Maria from Bloodborne! I even got to shoot it at an 1800s victorian mansion! Everything is handmade or highly modded. I 3D printed the Rakuyo myself and it does transform like in the game! I'm so happy with how it turned out!

I'm ShelbyEileenCosplay and happy to answer any questions you might have! There's a spicy version of this too.

Still a couple things to do and a few places to add paint, but it's lookin good! The rub n buff went a long way to make it look like metal

What can I do for a more realistic metal finish?

I bought two foam Master Swords and taped them together and covered it in foam clay. Once it dries I will paint it green like the Zonai goop glue from Tears of the Kingdom.

I was trying to think of something funny to make and I think fusing two Master Swords is the best thing.

It’s all done! The 3D printed pieces are all glued on now. The foam panels and dowels are Velcro’d in place, the chain links are all snapped together, and the blue wire is glued on. All set for DragonCon in a week!

Sorry if not the place for this.

All done painting the 3D printed components that go on the PVC frame!

Now I just need to glue the components on the PVC—does anyone have a recommendation for a adhesive to stick PLA to PVC? Something less-than-permanent would be ideal, in case I ever need to repair it.

And after the gluing, I’ve got a couple foam panels to put on it, and various wires and greebles. DragonCon here I come!

My judgement paladin set from DragonCon. Seems like forever ago already...

(Yes I know the lightsaber doesn't fit, but fun >>> screen perfect)
