Ultimate Thor WIP 1

PLEEZ READ BEFORE COMMENTING (to avoid redundancy)

ok so im working on an ultimate thor costume. its not gonna be perfect but it will be close enough that u'll get the idea. actually i really want to do Soviet Man (or w/e) from Ultimates 2, the bald russian who steals thor's shit, thats right up my alley esp when he's runnin around w/ mjolnir and a sickle, haha. but either way i need the costume and i am posting a work in progress pic.

1) i am aware im smaller than i am in other pics, i slimmed up a bit for the northeast regional championships (about 12lbs :( sadly, polevaulters need less weight to fight gravity) but no worries im back in teh gym 4x a week and should have my hugeness back in no time.

2) i am aware i am bald and 6'2 not 6'6 or 6'8 or w/e thorlief is, though shit.

3) i am aware its navy blue w/ horizontal ribbing and a segmented back. irrelivant im not doing that too much effort.


so having said all that i basically dug up my ultimates durring a power outage during a huge ass snowstorm in the northeast not too long ago (31 inches in ny and no power for 4 days in some places!) and really dug the universe again, ultimates 3 sorta killed it for me but reading the original 2 made me love it again before it sucked.

so its gonna be black leather (cuz i love and own mad amounts of it) and im sporting a brand new vest w/ side straps which has a nice 'ultimates' feel to it. im gonna add the glow discs next to that which should go a long way towards legitimacy. after that i gotta build the belt. really need the belt its gonna have to be made almost completely from scratch though. after that its just some lifting gloves and some straps on my boots near the top (3 on each im thinking) and boom, done deal.

the only thing is the hammer, i really never liked ultimate thor's hammer but its a huge part of his get up, big and oversized in a way that traditional mjolnir can never work as. so in this pick i took shots w/ my traditional mjolnir prop, but the thought has crossed my mind to give an honest run at making an ultimates mjolnir. i saw a pretty sick one on here and if i could get anywhere close to that i would make it happen.

so this is phase 1, the basic ingredients to the set up, next will be adding the straps gloves and discs, then im gonna have to build that goddamn belt, which is going to suck the most cuz its gonna require actual effort and time, neither of which i really wanna donate to this but its bugging me and i have to. most irritating is that i know it wont be as good as i want it to be.

i just haven't seen a really good run at ultimate thor cosplay and i want to give it a go. dont be surprised if u see this vest/pants combo show up in other costumes for me as i SOOOO dig the new vest, its very black metal.


any suggestions on doing the belt or ultimate mjolnir would be appreciated though.

I would love to see you do Perun (that "russian guy" he actually joined the Ultimate Avengers for an issue or two)
