MemberOvomorphOct-31-2012 9:57 AMHello Fellow Prometheans!
It's been a while since I've posted but I check in as faithfully as I can to keep abreast of the latest news from the best forum out there for Prometheus/Sci-Fi info. Love how it's expanded! Glad I got in early.
As promised, here's the progress I've made on my SJ/Engineer costume (it can also act as a stand alone sculpture). My teaching and production company has kept me busy, but I've taken my spare time to upgrade last year's Megacon pieces into a hybrid original Giger/Prometheus "Sjineer" costume. I always liked Giger's original take but have modernized the look (nose hose/eyes) while hoping to keep in step with his original vision for the creature.
I suppose now is the time I should tell you it's made out of chicken-wire. crumpled newspaper and masking tape. That's my preferred medium. Takes awhile but in the end I have an extremely light weight costume.
The bottom half still needs to be finished (incuding the incoporation of dry-wall stilts for its height) and I'll be pushing to get that done by this year's Megacon so it can be on display there.
So anyway, Happy Halloween everyone! Let me know what you think of my progress!
