Monty's Goblin Slayer

[Montique]

So one of the newer "projects" that I mentionedin my Arctic Spartan build, is my build for Goblin Slayer, from the anime Goblin Slayer. It may seem relatively simple compared to a spartan III, but I actually had to learn more skills for this build than any other.

At first the project was no different than anything else I've done. I found files online and cut the armor out of foam. I've grown out of using hot glue for everything so now I use contact cement, but it limits my working times to daylight hours because mosquitoes come out at night and eat me alive.


Then things got "complicated". Since I wanted to make everything myself I had to learn how to sew so that I could make the bags (never sewn before in my life). I don't have any pictures but I had to learn basic leather working because I use real leather straps.



I gave the armor a plastidip base coat then sprayed it silver. I've never used weathering on my pieces so I had to learn how to apply black-wash to make the armor look dirtier.



I attached the shoulder and thigh plates with Velcro because I couldn't find the cannon straps he uses to attach them.

When the whole suit was finished, I took it to a legit photoshoot and I'm still waiting for those pictures to come out of post-production

For not being very experienced at sewing, you sure sew like a pro to me! This build is awesome!!

You're only saying that because you didn't see my first attempt at sewing the arm bands (left)

I can only imagine trying to push a needle through leather.....I know PerniciousDuke did some amazing leather-work on his Skyrim Nighingale Armor......but I also remember him saying that it was the hardest thing he ever tried. So kudos to you and your leather-work. I won't even try it yet. BTW, who's with you in that last pic?
