Castle Crashers in the works!
snotrocket | 10:44 AM on 05.18.2009 18 comments




We recently started our castle crashers costumes. We're not able to come anywhere near the level of skill that was first displayed when the game came out by that insanely good blue knight costume, but we're doing our best.
The animals are complete! They look amazing! I was really surprised how well they came out and all done freehand to boot. The heads I'm still painting but with the first coat of paint you can see they are coming out pretty good. Touch ups are going to be made to the totally white part in the front and cutting the eyes out for vision.
The girls will start sewing the tunics this weekend for the four of us as they'll be making their hats, princesses need hats

Below you can see the tubes primed then with the first coat of paint. Then my girlfriend holding up some to show the size of em.

Dude, fantastic job on the animal orbs, especially if you did it all freehand. They turned out great. Are you going to attach them to your head with fishing wire or something so they float around?

Also, damn you for tricking me into thinking that a Castle Crashers sequel was uncovered. Damn you!

There's a "defines adorable" joke that could be made here that the community would enjoy. Someone please come up with one...

Nice work! The helmet looks AWESOME and the animals are super clean. And all freehand?! Insanely great! Looking forward to more of the costume.

Faaaaaaantastic!

I always wanted to do a Castle Crashers Costume, but without 3 other friends to do it with, I'd look like a tool.

Apparently, 2 friends of mine saw a group of 4 people dressed up as the 4 knights during Halloween at 6th Street in Austin last year. Wish I'd seen them.
