2012 TMNT Replica Costume
 

Has been in the works for several months with help from members on the RPF. Found this forum just recently and thought I should share it with some Turtle Fans.

Awesome work so far, I look forward to seeing more.

Saw the shell on RPF, thats coming along nicely. The whole costume is perfect

amazing job so far, looks identical to the movie, i was thinking of attempting something like this soon, what material do you use for constructing the costume?

Awesome work, man! Looking forward to seeing it finished.

Soo looking forward to seeing it finished! Great job!:)

The raw casts slipped on for a test fit.

looking real nice so far. maybe a padded sleave will help keep the shoulder/bycep from collapsing.

i'm liking the accuracy in the head mold. and i see that you went with the bluish-green skin tone mikey's been depicted in recent shows/comics. pretty good so far. can't wait to see the shell added. keep it up man.

WTF am I seeing. Is that a thumb or...

haha, jk. nice job. I think you should have used Nickelodeon feet though. Those are not the right feet, considering you said "2012 TMNT" if that is what you mean

I think you are doing a really good job! And the feet are fine since it has the movie look.

Great Job man. Looks a lot of fun to make!

To quickly answer some of the comments:
1) These were just the RAW casts, padding will be added and it is being painted!
2) This was designed to look like the original TMNT I Mikey Costume, not the newest cartoons.

Shell is out of the molds ready for paint

Man.. The shell looks Amazing, can't wait to see it all put together.:D

wow the detail is amazing dude! The shell alone looks like something I could see mounted on a wall. That is amazing work man. Keep it up and Im looking forward to the final product.

This is looking great! I can't wait to see how much more this develops.

love that shell

Looking great so far!

we've been pretty busy working on the suit and updating on the RPF. anyhow, here's an update... ALMOST done. also, paint is pretty much done. at this point, I'm just waiting to get the shell back from my upholstery guy (he is adding straps/harnessing).
