Orc Warboss from Warhammer Fantasy

My team and I are Larpers. Since 2009 we've been making Warhammer Greenskins costumes for Larp.

Our costumes must be mobile, durable and shockproof, because it’s really rough Larping in Russia with fiberglass and metal weapons. Especially masks. I have my own workshop where I and my team make our stuff (or other stuff for sale.)

I make masks from 3+ layers of fabric+ epoxy (fiberglass). Then I made modeling from cold welding (epoxy plastic). Horns and other stuff like dat I make from latex. Other parts (armor, orcs bodies and ect) I make the same way + metal, leather and latex of course.

This is My 4th orc warboss costume. We no longer use foam rubber to make orcs bodies because its not durable and REALLY HOT (and we must be in costumes fighting ummies for 10 hours a day!), so we made a plastic cuirass in the form of orcish humps, that cover the neck and increase the size by 2-3 times.

I've used this costume for a year and I was on 3 or 4 Larps, and 1-2 conventions (we never visited any before), Starcon 2012 and Avaexpo 2012.

We really enjoyed dancing to scary cosplayers, trolling dem, growl at them, yelling at them, smashin dem and ect.

We have a lot of fans about this and even won contests, we were surprised, because we were rude and intolerable, but everyone with a sense of humor likes us.

And a lot of people like violence, they really like when we began smashing each other, throw goblins and breaking chairs to each other on the head.

I think next year we will visit on only LARP but some of local cosplay conventions in our new orcs costumes wich gonna be better then dat ones.
