Evenstar Designs

My bestie and I went out to take more pictures of the Bucky cosplay. It was raining a bit, but I think it added to the aesthetic. I'm so happy I was able to finish and photograph this cosplay before going back to school. Speaking of which, I have to say goodbye for the fall - it's back to nursing school for me! I'll be back over winter break with new ideas - so until then, bye bye! for the record, my aesthetic is still pink fluffy unicorns dancing on rainbows ;)

We finally got into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I don't know why it took this long because I have so many friends that are into Marvel. Maybe it's just because there are so many movies that we didn't know where to start, but this summer, we've jumped in head first. And I love Bucky Barnes. :) Soooooo, I decided to do a cosplay. First things first. The arm. Whether it's a silver arm designed by evil Dr. Zola or a cool vibranium arm (happy punch in the feels - Steve's shield and Bucky's arm now match 💖 ) designed in Wakanda, I needed to figure out how to make a convincing metal arm. My sister has done a lot of research in the world of cosplay armor, so I went to her first to get help with making the arm. After looking at several other costumers recreations, we decided to make the arm out of EVA foam. (other options included warbla, or painted fabric, but we chose not to do those because warbla is too expensive, and painted fabric... not very realistic...
