yooo! this was honestly fuckin' sick man, im a huge legend of zelda fan as well and i've just started planning out my link cosplay so this helped me so much with the motivation to just do it. keep up the good work 🎔
I love this sm I love the costume *so perfect omg* I love the *DEDICATION* and *EFFORTTTT* I love ur energy you seem so nice 😭 And most importantly Love the three (or four?) thrifted belts 💀 Please make more vids like this 🤌✨
I’ve had a completed Champions tunic sitting in my closet for months now, and this video motivated me to finish the costume! Hope you keep posting more videos!
Hi, you're really surprised I'm here, apparently. I was looking into what'd I'd need for a link cosplay and stumbled upon this video, which covered basically everything I needed and actually helped me start thinking more into the actual craft of it. I'm only here to say that next time you go into this much depth on making something like this, you should show us a bit of the technical bits you did to make the costume, if you are able to. Oh, and, could you maybe show us a bit on the prosthetic arm? Some also want the Hylian shield, but I have found a neat metal replica of both it and the master sword.
So this was actually the first cos I'd ever made and I had about 6k followers on TikTok at the time lol! I didn't think to record the actual process because I didn't really know what I was doing crafting-wise (and I also had no idea people would want to know). I'm gonna try to film for some of my other projects though! Only issue is that I'm on a tight making schedule for cons and content, and filming slows down the process a Lot. But I'll see what I can do for y'all! I hope it's still helpful and I wish you the best of luck!! 💙
My little brother is going with link's archaic set for Halloween, so my mom and I have been attempting to recreate Link's arm which is impossible to do justice😩 My mom made the Zonai battery pack from cardboard and it looks real good
oh that's awesome!! I actually made the arm and the archaic tunic on my TikTok, that might be helpful for y'all to look at? and please let me know if I can help with anything!!
I absolutely love this video my friend!! You always kill it and impress and the breakdown for everything is 🔥 (plus the humor is on point! And great editing!! 😂❤❤🔥🔥🔥) keep slaying it gorgeous!!
Hello, I first wanted to say that the cosplay looks absolutely amazing! I am looking to make a BOTW Link cosplay at some point soon. I was wondering if you would be willing to share your armour templates, i unsestand if that is not an option. Thank you so much for taking your time to read my message, i hope that you have a wonderful day!!
I am so sorry it's taken so long to reply, I don't check my RU-vid that often unfortunately 😭 so most of the patterning was just done on the fly/by eyeing it so i actually don't have any physical pattern pieces! but I hope your armor turns out amazing!!
I think the main chesplate is on the wrong side because in game it’s on links left side idk if yours is on your left side but the video looks like it’s on your right but it could also be that the camera flips everything
I watched your TikTok and kicked through the door the very second you said you made a RU-vid video! First of all, holy hell, the amount of work and dedication is incredible (and makes sense considering the cosplay itself is genuinely one of my favourites), I pray for you and all of that hand embroidery omg! I'm most amazed by the armour, and I do have a question! When making the armour, specifically the bracers, did you make them to your exact measurement, or did you make them bigger? If so, by how much? :) (Off-topic, but I hope the construction of Rauru's arm is going well! :D)
thank you so much, I really really appreciate it!!! let me answer ur question ant the bracers: the first undershirt I bought for this cos was a more chunky knit turtleneck, so I made the bracers to fit with its sleeves. but then I switched to a much thinner turtleneck for comfort after the bracers had been made 😭 so what I did was cut a long fuzzy sock in half and cut off the toe, then wear the halves like arm warmers under the bracers to make them fit :D
((Plus how in the fuck do you also have a really cute and lovely voice?!) you can’t be crafty, stunning, an inspiration, AND have a lovely voice! Not fair)
O heyyy i sew a tunic, and we got a similar build (im also build like a toothpick) and 5'8.. i was woundering if i could get the pattern for the armour? Please?
@@FelixTheBlackCatnope. Ive join the discord server and asked for it, but hes said hes a gremin and dont got the patten.. have to make it myself.. TwT
I too am making a link costume but the Breath of the Wild version, i don’t know if you will see this but how did you make your boots. I was thinking about wrapping old cowboy boots but i’m not entirely that it would work.
I actually just recently got new boots!! I wanted to keep the feel of the hylian trousers, but I just felt like they were a little boring compared with the tunic. I ended up making some foam detailing to go on the toes and heels that matched the armor! I didn't add the cuffs at the top though so unfortunately I don't really have advice on that 🤷🏼
I do use my natural hair!! unfortunately I don't have any specific wigs I can reccomend, but I'd say your best bet would be looking at cosmetic wigs instead of cosplay wigs :D
I patterned everything out using posterboard! it's pretty cheap and it's very flexible, and easily held together with tape. Then I just cut the pieces out of craft foam :D
@@oliviakat68I wasn't able to find the pattern pieces but here's a really great tutorial about how to make your own!! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o8_Rqbqx8u4.htmlsi=aU-ElWx8bm72ClQE
