- For once, we're starting a costume early! If anything can help us avoid con crunch, it's our Cosplay Companion Handbook. Using the notebook, Britt is planning out her Karlach costume from Baldur's Gate 3. Come along with us as we talk through the process of beginning a cosplay.

Seattle folks! We'll be hanging out around Emerald City Comicon on Friday and Saturday. Bill has one panel on Friday at 11am: www.emeraldcitycomiccon.com/en-us/explore/panels/panel-information.html?gtID=828607&panel-name=Maker-that-Money-Turning-a-Hobby-into-a-Business
This is very reminiscent of the early days of the channel in the best and most awesome way. So good to see Brit in front of the camera again. I also appreciated all the shout outs to other talented folks in this space.
I think Bill would make a great Halsin. He gives comforting supportive Druid vibes.
I just want to say, I'm not into cosplay, video games or fantasy. I just love watching you guys build stuff and have so much fun with it. I love the style and scale of your videos right now, it feels like watching friends work on a project for themselves. Feels like you're genuinely doing something you love and that feeling is infectious. Thank you. 😊
So glad you're enjoying our videos!
Britt has gotten much more comfortable on camera over the years. Happy to see more of her in videos. :) Excited to see this costume unfold.
Willow creative mentioned 🔥🔥🔥
That's what you get for being so awesome!
as someone with a rough case of ADHD, having a collected callender, project journal and expense tracker all in one spiffy little booklet is wonderful and a gamechanger! seriously, I cant recommend this enough
GO BRITTTT!!!!!......Sounds like a great series of small builds & different mediums, Im looking forward to see if you make the rings out of metal & how the ears are done
It's so exciting!
"You could dress up as an owlbear"
I was gonna say Scratch.
Forget if you guys have a dog, but would be great to see a deep dive on a cosplay costume for your pet.
Oh, and you could do a Halsin costume. Bear form, naturally.
Britt's projects are always so epic, happy to see a new one, and especially as a multi-stage extravanza!
This makes me happy to see. I know you guys are into 3d printing now but I miss the older days of this channel. Can't wait to see the BG3 cosplay!
Sounds like a perfect idea for Brit because she's so tall, but so ambitious too with so much planning. Should be a great series!
Hope so! We'll see how it goes :D
Bill: "I wanna scan your ear." LOL! Yay big cosplay project Brit! Look forward to seeing this come along! Especially horns and heart!
He's been playing the long game to finally get to scan my ear 🤣
@@punishedprops you might want to look into the product line of Revopoint. They sell some affordable handheld scanners, that don't need a specially prepared surface to give good scanning results.
great to see bill and britt again!! so stoked to see how this project turns out :DD
I've started work on a Karlach cosplay myself, so I'm hyped for what I can learn from this series! ^_^
Yay! Hope you have fun with the build!
Britt, I hope you all noticed that those little washer like things on Karlach's shoulders also light up too so you might want to add that to the heart (the screen shows the heart and the shoulders lighting at the same time so you would need just one circuit and not several). Just thought I would let you know that if you haven't seen that.
Darn, I was hoping no one would notice those little knob-things light up, haha. The darker lighting at Dragon Con would show off those lights really well, too. I'll give it a shot!
I bought two or three of your notebooks in actual paper a few years ago and haven't actually used them yet. Haven't made anything I thought complicated enough at the time. Though I should have used one for my Nazgul King cosplay. Looking forward to watching your progress. Thanks for sharing with us! PS I really like the way you guys reference all the other builders out there. It's the sharing among makers which makes this community so freaking awesome.
It looks quite promising. I love BG3 too. I'm pretty excited to see all of your future hard work. Gratz Britt :D
Thank you!
This sounds cool, I'm looking forward to seeing how this comes along! It's neat to get a peak into the thought process behind planning something like this, and the questions + considerations that come up.
Stretch the fabric, apply acrylic paint on sections you'd like raised for the burn scar, and let fully dry. When the fabric shrinks back, you'll have a textured look to the fabric. This technique is used to make the skin for animatronic dinosaurs.
That's so awesome, thank you for the tip!
Bill should do a Scratch cosplay to accompany you at Dragon Con!
You should check out the Karlach ball jointed doll made by Moonlight Jewel! They really dissect all the belted straps from Karlach's outfit and show how they piece it all together. Obviously the scale is different, but I imagine it's a pretty inspirational watch for trying to make a full size cosplay!! Good luck and can't wait to see more about your journey!
Thank you for the recommendation! Watching it now: ua-cam.com/video/7BJGC8X34Vc/v-deo.htmlsi=Jjr7mzhePrye9uLx
Wait is it Christmas , 4 videos this month 😮 I’m so happy when I get a notification that there’s a new PP video 😊. I can’t wait to finish work and get home and watch .
Christmas in February!
Cant wait to see what you do for the chest bit. That glow effect will be awesome!!
Fantastic! Already excited to see it at DragonCon! And yeah! More Britt builds! 🙌
Woo! \o/
Man, I haven't watched a video and been so inspired to make a cosplay in many, many years! Karlach is obviously the best character in Baldur's Gate 3 and I'm really excited to see how this turns out!
So happy we could inspire you!
I'm excited to see punished props doing the content that originally attracted me to their channel, the prop creation is cool, as is the 3d printing, but I've always loved the from scratch full costumes😅
Also I know it was a joke but an owl bear costume would be brilliant
Volo! That poofy hat is a must.
Hahaha, yes!
I'm not into role playing games, but it doesn't prevent me from thinking that this character is indeed very cool looking ! I have absolutely no doubt that with all your knowledge, all your skills, all your experience and all your tools, you'll successfully make this cosplay.
It really does help to break it down into smaller steps (tail, ears, gauntlets etc...) and it makes it appear a lot more doable than the whole costume in one shot. I sincerely wish you a lot of courage for this build ! When I have a big project to get into and that I feel like "man, this is too much", I always remember to tell myself "ok, let's get into it for a bit and then we'll see" and that's how I always realize that the hardest is to start the project. Once you've started it, it kinda flows until the end.
And for Bill, I could suggest a cosplay of Fat Mike from NOFX :D just some colored hair, shorts and a tshirt (or maybe a dress), a chain necklace and a bass guitar, and boom! you're done! :D
As always, thank you for the video! Can't wait to see the next one! Cheers from France! Stay safe ; )
Not a Baldur's Gate cosplay but I just committed to an Aloy cosplay from Horizon Forbidden West! I'm really excited to be working on it and it will be an opportunity to make a costume with new elements that I've never done before! Can't wait to see all the build videos for Karlach!
Yes! That's so exciting! Have fun with the build!
I'm looking forward to seeing how cosplay turns out
I'm so excited to watch this build process from start to finish! It's cool to see how other people progress through a project
It's nice that Brit is doing an extended build and you are taking us along for the journey with videos. I look forward to all the videos of her complete journey making her new cosplay. I also really liked how this video was. It's nice to have a look into how one cosplayer goes about starting their build. It can be useful for those who might need it or it could help them improve things in their own cosplay builds.
For shaved sides on wigs, there's the option of flocking a baldcap! you could also use one of Arda Wigs's Rocky wigs as it's very very short!
Woah, that's so cool! Thank you for the info!
Very cool tool and lovely to see your thought process. Inspiring!
A great new project. I made my daughter into Hellgirl a while back and used a red Zenti suit vs painting her from the neck down. An interesting way for some items is since you have some of the files is to use the 3d files to make pepakura eva foam files.
Thank you!
neat! Thank you for sharing. It's always good to see how to get myself organized for a project I have never done before (making a cosplay)
Our local library has a mini-con for kids every spring and I plan on using some of your videos for inspiration!
That's awesome! So glad we could help!
Wow. I am three minutes and twenty one seconds in and am already very excited for this series. Step by step analysis of a costume, planning order of operation for everything from makeup to costume to props. This will be EPIC and super useful for anyone building any character.
I really hope this series gets the attention it deserves. I know the end result will be a success given your skill sets and most important,y, your passion to get it right.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the talk
This was actually really nice. Talking about it made it feel so much more doable. And gave lots of inspiration and opened up for ideas. Didn't think it would, thought I'd just watch and enjoy but that part was great. Please do more if you have another project. 👍👍
So glad you enjoyed the talk!
So excited to see your progress on Karlach! I've just started planning and making her too. Hoping to make a Clive back pack (got to have somewhere for my mobile phone!). Bill should defo do Gale! If I get time I'm making Gale's robes for my husband. Hope it all goes well!
That's so cool! I hope your builds are super fun!
Looking forward to seeing all the different steps you guys will be going through during this awesome, COMPLICATED build!!!
If you're making gloves, get some conductive thread, and sew a bar tack across your phone using fingers! Trust me, you want this.
That would be so handy!
Super excited to see what you do Britt!!!
the balurs gate meetup at dragoncon will be 🔥
Cool look forward to the new project
Great video! I always love to see the whole creative process. Planning included.
Just popping in to say this was really fun to watch. I'm really excited to see how this project goes!
Awesome costume idea!
great idea to make sure you note where you got parts and their order numbers/cost
An owlbear is probably not going to fit into your luggage... so you might have to go with the next best thing, and do Halsin. But, when August roles around and you still haven't started yet, Gale would probably be your best bet... or go ham, and do a Dragonborn Tav of your own to roll with Karlach.
Hahaha you know us too well. It will probably be Gale.
Very excited for this! Hope to see yall at emerald city too!
ECCC is going to be amazing!
Look mum, I'm in a Punished Props video!
You're just so inspiring we had to do a shout out!
My girlfriend and I are getting ready for a little local weekend con, she wants to do Hadestown one day, I'm thinking Dungeon Meshi for the other ❤
You guys inspire me. Thank you 😊
You're welcome!
Very pleasant video! Haven't seen too many videos before about the planning and pre-production process so that was interesting!
14:46 Definately airbrush the red parts of teh body suit. But don't forget the gloves. Just a little of indication, especially around the knuckles, goes a long way to sell that look if you are gluing fingernails to them. I've seen great looking gloves like that but also really bad looking ones. And, in the end, yer startin early enough you have the time!
I can't wait to see the experiments and progress this year! I havent been to a proper conventiuon since 2019 and have never cosplayed but I'm hoping this will be the year.
Thank you for the tips!
That project book is amazing for any number of applications. I need to take a page out of Paige’s book. Also, have you considered also air brushing the body suit to give it a muscled shading effect?
Someone who has done body/face paint + gloves and made YT videos about her techniques is Ginny Di, who focuses on D&D related topics!
Awesome, thank you for the info!
Super excited to follow along with this! I am going to be making a cosplay of a oc tiefling character.
That's awesome!
Britt, you're my new hero! (Along with Rachel Maksy and Morgan Donner.)
I'm honored to be part of such an amazing maker group
This was a great episode: A previsualisation/setup session.
Great idea. 👍
This is going to be an amazing build series. Im looking forward to them all.
I'm also thrilled to see what Bill has planned both his Baldur's build, as well as his "other" build.
You two have such an awesome channel. I always give a Like as soon as I watch. ❤
Be Excellent to each other and Party on. 🤘😎🎸
Party on!
The infernal text on her horns will be interesting to do in foam. I'm really curious to see how that could be done cleanly.
Me too!
Two words for Bill's costume:
Dark Urge.
Okay now we're talking. I would love to see that.
Oh boy!
I made a tail using Arboreal's method a few years ago for Samurai Frieza that i wore to d-con.. it is the best way to make a taill.
That's great to hear!
i like it.
I actually have a lot of cosplay ideas coming up. It's an endurance test for myself. Think of how many versions of Doctor Who there are. Now, what if someone wanted to take the approach of making the cheap TARDIS costumes more synonymous with each Doctor?
so excited to see this progress and ill see you at dragoncon! Spent too many hours in BG3 this weekend just starring at karlachs outfit.
See you at Dragon Con!
Yay!!! I love Karlach!!! She's my lifting inspo too lol
Yay! Lifting buddies!
@punishedprops Nerdy lifter sisters unite 💪
for the ears, are you using the scupltable foam? for the sleeve maybe the cuff with a thumb hole like some thermal tops. lol, pajama outfit, make out outfit. 😅
Bill as Ketharic Thorm (normal form).
You’ve done plenty of pour modeling and casting videos. I would love to see you do a 3D scan and print of the ears, then sculpt on the print.
I'm so curious about the digital sculpting process, too!
PLEASE KETHERIC WOULD BE AMAZING FOR YOU BILL🙌🙌🙌
Do you know about Pacific Fabrics in Seattle? Might be a better option than online since you can see and feel the fabric before buying. It's a few blocks south of the stadiums so really close to Tukwila.
Where do they hold Dragoncon?
I wish I could go so I could possibly meet you 2 and Adam Savage too.
That would be cool.
One of these days I hope to get your books on foam smithing
It's in Atlanta, GA. A long flight for us, from the west coast, but worth it for the costuming scene: ua-cam.com/video/52l095xaAc0/v-deo.htmlsi=DmuNeAKmAtlQY335
I'd love to see you guys make a Prop from the Disney+ Percy Jackson TV series Preferably Anaklusmos(Percy's Sword also known as Riptide,) maybe Ares Sword, or Annabeth's knife for a quick build! Maybe even one of the helmets, but I think The weapons would be easiest because you can 3d print them. But I'd love to see you find out how to get that Celestial Bronze color!
We've been wanting to watch the show. I heard the prop work and music are amazing!
@@punishedprops yeah I've absolutely loved it and can't wait for season 2!
But are you going to figure out a complex series of magnets to have the axe be able to float several inches off your back like it does in game?
hahaha
Everybody is saying Halsin for Bill, which was also my first instict, but Ketheric would be an awwwesome build C: ... and a loooot of work (x
Oh man, Ketheric would be so rad! We've been following instagram.com/piltovercc/ 's progress.
Good luck. having just finished a 3 year build for a fully motorized, operator-on-the-inside, electro-mechanical Dalek its time to start a new build - a full Halo Master Chief outfit and try to be ready for Orlando MegaCon In Feb 2025 - should be epic. Knowing nothing about the Halo universe until a month ago I've been on a vertical learning curve and am now ready to do the costume planning. I learned very quickly that his undersuit has almost no prior screen accurate work done so the first order of business was to create that. Once the undersuit is complete only then can i start on the armor since to ensure its sized corrcetly I need to have my measurements with the undersuit on. Currently I'm doing a lot of sketching using show screen shots
Excellent work completing your Dalek! I hope your next long-term project is just as rewarding.
@@punishedprops Thx! Looking forward to the Master Chief build not taking quite as long ... lol
TPU is challenging to print with to say the least. I've had better results with flexible PLA (working on a Yondu fin for an upcoming cosplay started with flexible PLA, but am leaning towards flexible PLA for the base piece that actually glues to my bald dome and foam for the larger fin), but have not found a foamed flexible PLA
I really like Britt glasses they would look great on my lovable sister Brooke
Thanks! I got them here: www.framesdirect.com/takumi-tk1073-with-clip-on-lens-eyeglasses?color=1
An Enlarged Scleratis Fel!
Yes!, BG3 costumes, I'm still debating one from BG3
There's so many good ones to pick from!
👍👍‼️
Legit I want to make an Owlbear cosplay now that I'm actually getting cosplay brain again.
Do it Thomas!!!!!! Or at least a puppet size baby owlbear: ua-cam.com/video/hRY5Z3vRuu0/v-deo.htmlsi=6yF2fkMNIZOeUxvB
So where can you get the EVA form for 3d printing? Joel at 3d printing nerd spoke about this filament as well but there doesn't seem to be a lot of it.
Yeah, what ever happened to that filament?
@@punishedprops Ask Joel!? But I think we should get someone to make it again lol! Also I loved this video I hope you turn it into a series to help people like me with ADHD who needs a little guidance for cosplay projects and it will maybe give me the kick I need to start my Bo Katan cosplay lol
Volo would be perfect
Bill could carry around a spare eyeball :D
Not nearly as advanced but this is how I design or plan multi medium cosplays
...now I just need to execute any of the ten hand written plans I have hahaha
Sometimes going through a plan is enough satisfaction and making the build isn't necessary :)
@punishedprops aye. And sometimes dreams and knowledge soar far above means but that's OK! Thanks for the content!
5:38 is that an apple box being used as a monitor bump-up platform? lol
Haha, close! It's an upside down food tray--monitors are always too short for me :D
Please do Astarion! Or Halsin would be great.
Halsin the bear or human? :D
A boulder. Boulder's Gate.
Bahaha
Well, you already have a beard, so go as Gale!
And Bill does like wizard hats!
@@punishedprops could also make a Tara? That would be too cute
Karlach is the best
I'll fight along side her in Avernus till the end of time
Wouldnt it be easier just to screen capture the character model?
I'll be doing that for sure!
Self skinning nerf foam you say??? What material is that?
It's so rad: www.smooth-on.com/product-line/flexfoam-it/
@@punishedprops THANK YOUUU!! Keep up the amazing work!!
Do Minsc
and Boo!
Your website is way out of date (e.g. convention appearance page lists dates in 2020), and some dropdown menus show multiple down arrows. Might be worth looking the site over and checking for errors. I would have submitted this comment via your website but your customer service form is not working, and apparently neither the sponsorship nor business opportunity forms work either. Thought you should know.
Thank you for letting us know!
"Phew, with this current project almost finished and my creativity satisfied, I can focus on some not-so-fun work."
(watches video)
"No! Must... not... become... infected... with... more creative energy!" 😖
It's the best kind of infection :D
Do cosplayers call the abuse their costumes go through at a convention the “Wrath of Con”? 🙇🏼♂
Bahahaha
