- Backplate, incoming details are drawn on the surface.
- Like previously done, we made the part bases with thick foam covered in Worbla. Then, we attached the horns (remember the ones in Pepakura covered with Worbla ?) by screwing them from the inside of the helmet. We added the lower part of the helmet, made of foam and Worbla. We put some Worbla’s Black Art «sausages» on the surface to create elevation and we shaped them. Here comes the though part : sculpting the face directly with Worbla. As done previously, we cut foam plates with the right shape (thanks to tape patterns), covered them with Worbla on both sides and sticked them to the helmet. We started with the simpler parts : the scales on the top of the head. Once the base was rigid, the sculpting began.
This shape was then covered with foam plates encased into Worbla. We then covered everything with Worbla.įor the helmet, we first made a Kobracast base from the shape of my head. Once the pieces were full, we worked on the shape by cutting sharp edges. We tried a new technique to in the hope of saving some time : filling the Pepakura pieces with insulating foam. The helmet’s horns were cut from this Pepakura, and the shoulder horns were also made using the same method. Cutting the Pepakura with the precision cutter.Despite this step being optional, it gave us a life-size reference so we could sculpt with Worbla afterwards. Some pieces were first crafted in Pepakura ( see tutorial) by using a 3D model extracted from World of Warcraft.įirst, the helmet. Since parts of the character were hidden, Marie re-drew him entirely based on this picture, while adding the missing parts from the World of Warcraft in-game 3D models. Our starting point was the illustration made by Alex Horley for the Black Knight card in the video game Hearthstone : Heroes of Warcraft. It all begins with some research work, to find good reference pictures. More than a year after its inception, here is (at last) the making of our Black Knight □ Reference pictures One month before our departure to Los Angeles, the costume was barely started (a small piece of chainmail here, a small piece of Pepakura there)… and the stress began to build up slowly !Ī huge amount of work awaited us : helmet, sword, full armor, chainmails, lights… The days felt long, but we took the challenge on, and after one month, the Knight came to life (one day before taking off, but still). «Crafting a full armor from the ground up in just one month ? Eaaaasy !»Īmong the three costumes we wanted to bring with us to Blizzcon in 2015, the Black Knight was the last one we made. Black Knight: Making-of Making-of / 28 July 2017
