[VLOG] Two Face Cosplay (Patreon)

Greetings, my fellow savages!

I was finally able to export this vlog! 😅 If you're on my Snapchat level you may have already seen that I was having trouble all week. It wasn't even a space issue this time, it was just taking so long for my laptop to process because the original files, before being sped up, were hours long. 🙃

Plus I added a bunch of different music & voice overs. I considered breaking this up into two parts because the making of the prosthetic is such a huge chunk of the video, but it just felt right to keep it all together.

So I hope you enjoy a behind-the-scenes look into the making of my Two Face cosplay from Batman Forever!

This was my first Twitch cosplay I did last year, right at the end of September, and if you missed the stream you may not have even seen anything about it because I don't think I posted a single thing afterward. 😅

I wasn't super happy with how it turned out. I think I just had a perfect image in my mind and it didn't turn out that way. I wasn't crazy about body-painting the suit, but mostly I was not happy with the application of the prosthetics. They did not blend how I had hoped. I think I didn't make the edges thin enough.

What I WAS happy with, however, was:

This was my first time making my own prosthetic and it was really fun!

I thought the side mouth piece in particular looked really good by itself, especially for a first time!

I felt so unsure what to do about the hair, but the wig ended up coming together really easily, and using one I already had! (recycled from HIMM from The Powerpuff Girls)

In retrospect, this costume was not bad. I can appreciate it more now, lol. It just felt more "costume-y" and less like an accurate cosplay which is where I set my expectations.

I also need to give myself some grace because I did this in like two days if I'm not mistaken. 😂

I forgot to mention in the vlog, (and I was not about to redo the voiceover, lol) that it was also a struggle to figure out what colors to use. In some pics he looks various shades of purple, in others he looks more pink. I think I made the right choice going more on the purple side.

Here are some time stamps for your convenience:
