what do you do with your Cylon costume when not wearing it?

Post by **Phil Oliver** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 12:27 pm

I was wondering what people do with their Cylon costume when not wearing it? I made a duct tape maniquin late last year and have had my Cylon up on display in my recroom. It certain does impress people when they enter the room. It was really tough to get it mounted where I was happy with it so I have not taken it off since. I plan on taking it off for the upcoming local Comic Con (Hal-Con) and Halloween - which are both at the same time. Because it is mounted and was so difficult to get right I was reluctant to take it off and passed up many opportunities to wear it. I am trying to decide if I will remount it after taking it down or leave it off so that I can wear it if the opportunities comes up. But if I don't remount it then I won't have the enjoyment of seeing it in my recroom. Not sure what I will do...

My temporary setup. He actually has legs but they look funny so I'm going to prop the top only it on a cabinet

Nice display!

I never knew you'd get an undersuit, by the way...

thanks,

It's acostuming undersuit which was custom made... but not very well. Quality good, details not. Partly my fault for wanting comfort but in the end it just doesn't do the trick.

Sorry to hear that!

Any plans for making a second, more accurate suit?

yup - there is a lot of need for accurate suits so I will always have plans. Hopefully I can help pout others while finding a good balance of accuracy and comfort.

where do you get a mannequin or stand from for your displays.

When Dept. stored go out of business you can pick up torsoes and legs. Lot of newer displays have no arms so the arms need to be fabricated.
