riddick 2.0

Mon Apr 20, 2009, 6:53 PM
ok so after a whoooole lot of Kingdom Hearts, the art, the fanfic, the hoodie, the keyblade, i needed to shift gears and do something else. then i heard a new riddick game was coming out on g4 and the new fast and furious was comin out. i had babylon AD from netflix, rewatched tf&tf and riddick, and i was in a vin diesle place. he's a heavy dude but 6'1.5" and 205lbs give or take depending on how close i am to a track meet. so i figured it was time to do some vin diesel cosplay. as i had done riddick before, it seemed logical to take that halloween costume and take it up a notch. so its a work in progress. i dont own a next gen system so i can't play the new riddick game yet but i am looking for info and shots to see if anything else fun shows up to throw into the costume. had to redo the vembracers (or w/e they are called) and the goggles, got a new tank with a wider cut (so that the chest cut is more accomodating liek his pitch black tank) and added an ammo belt wich i figure he'd put dried meat or shivs in, or w/e. i wasn't going for a replica of either film, more just going for a nice meld of practical riddick feel. i kept the dark fury colored pants dark tan, and i changed the bracers to black cuz i figured the brown was really just hollywood crap, if he's as stealthy as he is supposed to be u dont use scratched up brown leather that can catch light. the goggles im still workin on but for now the new ones will do. basically i just enjoy doing fan art photo manips so the better the costume the better the manips turn out.

also i took the black blades i had and painted them silver so they were closer to the actual on screen ones.

i may do a fan trailer too i dunno we'll see how things go.

Thanks man -- what u working on these days?
most of my time is going into redoing a logo for this band, they are very particular clients and the process requires input at every turn so i dont have much time for my art, most of my time is going into my music right now.
