I finally made some more progress on the Planet She-Hulk cosplay. The face armor is complete. Motivation has been hard to come by. So this was nice. Hopefully I can make progress on the pauldrons tomorrow. #shehulk #cosplay #maker #marvelcomics #crafting #planetshehulk #Armor #steel #leather

24 more hours of letting JB Weld Dry. Then I can start grinding, sanding, and painting. LOL One of these Planet She-Hulk pauldrons are going to be used in the cosplay, just do not know which yet, lol #cosplay #shehulk #planetshehulk #marvel #maker #crafting #steel #jbweld #armor #comic #comics

My teen asked if I would teacher her to make a big cosplay sword. I know I am not great at it and I am excited. We will be trying a different core (fiberglass vs pvc). I can't wait to start working with her as we will be building together step by step. #cosplay

Motivation has been hard to come by lately and today is a reset day. I started repairing one pauldron, worked on a backup pauldron, and laid out my Captain Carter cosplay to identify potential upgrades. #shehulk #CaptainCarter #cosplay #Motivation #marvel #armor #crafting #cosplaygirl #maker

Finally, I have the top laced up. Looks like paracord (size 95) is what it takes. Now to complete the metalwork (face, and boot armor), the boots (which scares me, lol) and then the body paint. Planet She-Hulk cosply here I come. #shehulk #cosplay #maker #leathercraft #armor #leather #marvel #comics

Oh my goodness, this is in danger of looking really good!! #cosplay #shehulk #crafting #marvel #Comics #leathercraft

Looks like the face armor won out. LOL I am actually amazed at how well the first pattern turned out. :) #shehulk #planethulk #pattern #edhead #cosplay #maker #marvel #comics

I am torn, I want to make my boots, but need more materials. So I can build a LEGO mashup I've been wanting to do, or start working on the face armor. #cosplay #shehulk #armor #lego #moc (not mine) #wintervillage

Going to try a different method of pitting this pauldron together. I really want to learn how to weld and I just need more practice. So J B Weld it is. I am being practical, but I'm not happy about it. #shehulk #pauldron #cosplay #maker #workinprogress #wip #dc #dccomics #pivot #pouty

And with this, I now have issues 200-329 of the first series of Wonder Woman, half the collection, and I am well on my way to having all of the 190s (with 199 being the last one needed). #wonderwoman #dianaprince #dc #dccomics #collection

This actually prompted me to buy an early birthday present for myself. I hope it looks like the photos because this will become one of my primary super hero cosplays. This is one of the prettiest cosplays I've seen for sale online. #captaincarter #agentcarter #peggycarter #cosplay #marvel #comics

Um, I still have a ton of details to work on, and wow this turned out much better than I expected. 🤯 #shehulk #cosplay #maker #comics #marvel #planetshehulk

I am having to learn several new skills for Planet She-Hulk. Welding for the pauldron and tapping out grooves in leather work are 2 salient ones atm. Both of which I have never done until this build. 🥰 #cosplay #shehulk #planetshehulk #leatherwork #marvel #comics #wip #workingprogress

I still have some touch-ups, I need to paint the trim, stain the belt AND I just got issue 2 of Planet She-Hulk!!! The hip flaps are turning out AMAZING!!! #planetshehulk #shehulk #cosplay #maker #marvel #comics pauldrons are for proof of concept. 😊

My first series Wonder Woman collection has been cleaned up (re bagged and boarded those that needed it) and is now stored in a long box. I also now have half of the run and everything just gets more expensive the closer I get to the first issue, lol. #wonderwoman #comic #collection #dc #dianaprince

OMG I finally have a serger!!! It's older but it works!! I can't wait to get it home and learn how it works. AND got it for half of what I could have gotten it on ebay. Starter serger, yay!! :) #singer #serger #sewing #cosplay

You can't tell me this is not 'because I'm a girl' or 'pink' tax!!! Look at the whole picture. $33 usd for the top one, $33 usd for the middle one, and the pretty one on the bottom $329 usd. 😡 #Pinktax #welding #weldinghelmet #weldinghelmets #weldinggirl (I know I'm new at it, and I did it) lol

What IF? Meet Welder Woman. 🤣🤣🤣 All covered up ready to heat up some metal near you!! #havingfun #welding #makerspace user #metalwork #first #time #for #everything #stickwelder don't worry I moved everything to the right of my stick welder prior to trying to weld. 👀 I need a cuter helmet. 🥰

I ATTEMPTED TO WELD FOR THE FIRST TIME!!! I failed in what I was trying to do and I WELDED!!! #welding #cosplay #shehulk #pauldrons #marvel #comics #failed #fail #maker #metalwork #crafting

Planet She-Hulk pauldrons progress. :) I can't wait to get these cleaned up so I can weld it together. #shehulk #cosplay #maker #marvel #comics #wip #metalwork

My teen designed an original character and I have been trying to 3d print it. So far stringing and a member of the Aburame Clan is what I have been able to accomplish. Here goes try 3. #3dprinting #cura #Nomad #nomadsculpt #oc #ender3pro #creality

OMG I am super excited. It looks like my next con is going to be Blues City Comic Con and Emily Swallow and Rob Paulson are scheduled to be there. So, I just picked these up to add to my John de Lancie and Alexis Tipton autographed cards. 😍 #comiccon #thearmorer #pinkyandthebrain #autographs

Sword's done. :) #shehulk #marvel #cosplay #cosplaymaker #crafting #maker

Boot pattern acquired. It involved deconstructing an older pair but now that I have the pattern, I can start making my own boots for my competition cosplays, lol. I expect a lot of failure (my best path to learning) in my future 🤣🤣🤣 #cobbling #bootmaking #cosplay #shehulk #marvel

Plastidip drying, pommel printing, leather for the handle purchased, and sanding the model smooths it out. Not bad for today. I can now do something else. #cosplay #cosplaymaker #wip #shehulk #planetshehulk #3dprinting #foamcrafting #leathercraft #marvel #comics

I am getting so close to plastidip spraying this sword down. Still have to spit the blunt side decoration, glue the hilt embellishments, and make the last of the hilt decoration. Then on ton3d printing the pommel (😬). #cosplay #shehulk #marvel #comics #crafting #sword #wip

Oh my, at one point life #webcomics were a lifeline. Bluesky friends and family any recommendations?

I am really nervous about using this filler for the She-Hulk sword. Primarily because I have never used it before and well I am sooo far along. But here I am once again trying something I've never tried before. Just wait till I attempt using a welder. 😳🤣 #cosplay #shehulk #marvel #comics #sword

Tomorrow night I have a date with a belt sander to smooth out both sides, and then I get to add the side pieces and start cutting the bladed part out. :) #shehulk #planetshehulk #marvel #comics #cosplay #foam #crafting #maker #diy #sword #bustersword #wip

I cosplay Belle. And look at what I found at an antique store. #cosplay #Belle #beautyandthebeast #thebeast #Disney

The Planet She-Hulk gauntlets are ready. The sword is a wip and I don't know which costume component is next. But for now, yay. :) #shehulk #cosplay #cosplaymaker #marvel #comics #leathercrafting #metalfabrication #armor #gauntlet #comic #planetshehulk

Oh my goodness if this is not the epitome of a random photo of a nerd girls home, I dont know what is. LOL #candles #lego #minifigs #buildingbrucks #rollercoaster #pokemon #pokemontcg

One part of the Planet She-Hulk bracer armor glued up. One more to go and then they get glued to the bracers. One step at a time. :) #shehulk #bracers #cosplaymaker #planetshehulk #marvel #comics #cosplay #leatherwork #metalwork

Ok I splurged a little today. I wish the Yasha Nydoorin dice was available and I'll take what I can, lol. #criticalrole #aluravysoren #bagofhording #dice #dnd #critrole

Latest Planet She-Hulk updates :). The bracer armor has been clear coated with polyurethane. And I made some more progress on the really large sword (that is going to be heavy, lol). #planetshehulk #shehulk #marvel #comics #cosplay #leathercraft #metalcraft #foamcraft #crafting #wip #diy

Gauntlet armor cut. Now to remove the rust, clear coat the metal, glue the leather backing to the metal (with the attachment straps in-between), and find some santa hats for the fur. lol #cosplay #planetshehulk #leathercraft #metalcraft #shehulk #marvel #comics #wip

The gauntlets are coming along nicely. I'll need to get a steel plate but the basic pattern for the armor is ready. #planetshehulk #shehulk #marvel #marvelcomics #comics #cosplay #wip

Build Log: I have started my Planet She-Hulk cosplay build log. 🥰 It is in it's infancy and I have officially started. The sword and gauntlets are first. 😊 riddledwithadhd.blogspot.com/2025/11/plan... #cosplay #shehulk #planetshehulk #wip #buildlog #Marvel #comics

I just lost my mind. I get so few female heroes with my body type. Is it crazy I want to cosplay this She Hulk??!! Does anyone know how to do green body paint? #shehulk #marvel #planetshehulk #stephaniephillips #cosplay

More Wonder Woman comics!! I am closing in on having collected half the series. :) #wonderwoman #dccomics #dc #dianaprince

Every once in a while, when shopping at antique stores, you run into a little gem. #Marvel #xforce #Deadpool #antiques #cable #marvelcomics

I have been up to LEGO as my coping skill lately. The roller coaster I have been building is starting to come together and I have cleaned some things up and added a bunch new theming. 🥰 #lego #afol #moc #rollercoaster #jellyfish #lego3in1 #botanicals #seadragon

This may take a while because of a lot of competing interests and responsibilities, and the pattern base is complete. #captaincarter #peggycarter #marvel #marvelcomics #whatif

Cosplay is so amazing, interesting and fun. But sometimes making a cosplay can have some seemingly boring parts, 🤣. No one ever seems to share these. Like ripping duct tape and adding it to the maniquin to start patterning, 🤣. So here is the boring stuff. #cosplay #bts #captaincarter #marvel #wip

I'm starting a new cosplay. 🥰

Fun day with the kids. I found two more Wonder Woman comics for the collection, some older comics, and an amazing sale on the Captain Carter shield. 🥰🥰🥰 #wonderwoman #captaincarter #actioncomics #dccomics #marvel #peggycarter

I had to avoid masses of people this weekend, but I did make it out and sometime one shows up at the right place at the right time. Someone was just throwing these away. My nostalgia kicked in and they have a new home. 🥰

Wonder Woman and other comics haul. It has been a while and well I was out of town and picked a few things up. For the non Wonder Woman comics I didn't pay more than 6 USD. #comics #comichaul #wonderwoman #starwars #dc #marvel #tomandjerry #gotg

LEGO Coaster update. I will be theming it with Disney Princesses. And I finally got it working. I have a lot more work, and I love the progress. #lego #moc #rollercoaster #Disney #disneyprincess #afol
