    Beverly could not put on the headdress, which she'd borrowed from the Smooth-On booth. For a photo of her with the headdress on, go to her site, specifically here: downencreativestudios.com/?p=2142

      ArchangelExile She made it for Smoothon. They have her original Hela suit as well. You can’t see it but I made the stand (3D head scan/print) the headdress is sitting on.

      @@coregeek Ah, thanks for the info. Figured she'd have a headdress for herself too since she's all dressed up. And I wish they showed the stand that you had made. I actually kind of expected the camera to pan towards the stand when Adam placed the headdress back. But, alas, it was not meant to be.

    Adam's enthusiasm is infectious. I love how he blends fan boy excitedness with his expertise knowledge base. He compares notes with materials and techniques that few other people that interview could probably pull off. He also never attempts to instruct or be condescending which is just wonderful when watching someone of his experience. At the same time those he interviews seem to value his input and often give credit to him when applicable. Just a wonderful thing to watch.

    Those of you wanting to see full outfit shots check out her instagram or website. I it seems like she doesn't wear the wig when wearing the headpiece so she may not have been able to wear it during the interview if she' was wearing a wig or if it was her real hair she might need to put it up. But I agree some shots edited in would have been nice.

    • @DownenCreativeStudios
      @DownenCreativeStudios 5 років тому

      wwaxwork I wish it had been possible to make that happen! But you’re right, it takes me several hours to prep my hair, etc to wear the helmet, and I just didn’t have the ability to borrow the helmet and prep in the same day. Logistics didn’t work out that day, but it was great to chat about it with Adam! ☺️
