2015 A Year Of Growth

Hello there,

I haven't written in a long while but seeing as it is now 2015 I thought I would try and write more. 2014 wasn't the greatest year to be honest but I won't get all emotional on you, that year is over and this year is the year of positive thinking.

I'm going to start by trying to make a plan. There are a few things I would like to do and if I write them down I am more likely to do them.

I would like to start a YouTube channel. If you have read my post Living with Dyslexia and Dyspraxia you know that expressing myself in the written word is hard for me, so I thought I would try a different medium. It also gives me the chance to learn a new skill, video editing which I have always wanted to learn. 

I would like to grow this blog. I recently got a new laptop and now it is easier to post on here so I would like to start writing more posts and not just Cosplay I would like to make it more life style based and start doing reviews of games, cons, books, films all sorts of things. 

I would like to enter a Cosplay contest, now this one I have already made headway with I plan to have my Cosplay judged at this years Newcastle Film and Comic Con. I have sent the email and everything. Now this proper scares me but I think I just need to do it as its good to conquer your fears and I'm not very good at that I usually run screaming.

MORE CONVENTIONS!!..... I need to go to more cons I need to meet more Cosplayers start going to meets I need to start making a name for myself. I wouldn't mind getting a shout out from a Cosplayer at some point this year. This also means making more cosplay.

Believe in myself more. In my eyes nothing I do is any good although people tell me its amazing I tend to not think so I will try and see the good rather then the bad. I think this is the most important thing to do this year as it will help me achieve the rest of the things I want to do.

On that note I think its a ruddy good time to end, I hope you will join me on this journey. 

Good bye and good luck.

Cosplay WIP

I just wanted to share a bit more of my Cosplay work in progress. Daedric Armour is coming along nicely. I finished sanding. All the piece sanded ready for paint. Got as much a I could painted until I ran out of spray paint. The next thing I'm working in is the Cheshire Cat from Alice Madness Returns. I am using a different medium on this I am using Worbla . Worbla I just brilliant you heat it and it becomes pliable, then you mould it in to shape and it hardens this way. This is what I've done so far. Its very messy but I think I am doing well with it. Please let me know what you think of my WIP. Your friendly neighbourhood Bendy Benz.

Pepakura Part 2

Image
Hi Guys, Here are some updates on my pepakura project. I started by making a helmet that fits. See it fits. I was planning on just make the helmet just to see if I then I thought no I want a whole Daeric armour so next I thought I would make the breast plate. So it started with this. I printed out the pattern the size it comes in I got half way through about 7 hours worth of work and realise it was far to small, so had to learn how to rescale the design. A little Google search helped. So I started again. This was the final result. Front Back The next step is resin. I resined both the helmets and the breast plate. I added these pins for the nail effect. The next step is Bondo. ...

Penny Dreadful

****Disclaimer Spoilers**** So I've been watching Penny Dreadful over the last few weeks ans last night was the last episode so I thought I would write down what I thought about it. So when I saw the adverts for I thought it was just a Gothic drama set in Victorian London. Boy was I wrong lets do a run down on the characters. Sir Malcolm Murray Sir Malcolm is the main protagonist. He is an aged explorer. The story is centred around him and his quest to find his daughter, Mina, who has been taken by an entity known only as the master. (My bet is the master is none other then Dracula) He shares his house with: Vanessa Ives Vanessa is essentially Sir Malcolm's adoptive daughter. He has known her all her life. Vanessa has a creepy and sad story. She was a mischievous child who got herself into trouble in her teens by ruining the soon to be marriage between Mina and her prince charming. After this she is overwhelmed with guilt and becomes hysterical she is insti...
