Of Wheatlys and Acen

So normally y'all would've gotten a few Acen posts by now. Whelp, Acen is over! So instead of getting lists of what I still need to do or what I'm planning and all of that you get pictures of my... cosplay. I don't really know if it was a cosplay so much as "I made an awesome prop and a quick costume to show it off." Introducing: Wheatley! For those of you who don't know who Wheatley is he is from Portal 2. Here's a clip!

Wheatley was made from a large styrofoam ball that I paper-mached over. Then coat hangers were added and over the course of about... 9 hours he was painted. The whole thing took me about 4 or 5 days but that's with a lot of drying time for the paper-mache.

Personally I thought he turned out pretty nicely.

Lastly, a picture of Wheatley and I along with other Portal cosplayers at the Valve meet-up. I was simply dressed as a scientist from Aperture Science. I knew that people were much more interested in Wheatley than they were in me. Anyhoo that picture is of all of us singing "Still Alive."
