The creation of the armour for my Cole Cassidy cosplay was an opportunity for my to practise my pattern cutting, foam work, rendering and working from reference. It was a lot of trial and error, but came out exactly how I hoped.

First I gathered reference, luckily for my because Cole is from a long established game, “Overwatch” which has long existing lore it meant there was an official PDF that showed a clear render of Cole Cassidy’s character model. These are what I used as my main references.

Assembly of the pattern, credit to JJubsCosplay for the pattern as used as reference.

Attaching all the foam and checking how it fits.

Adding details and lights before priming and rendering.
