So, I didn't finish all of my Chewbacca costume for Connecticon in time. But on the bright side, this happened!9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/StarWars
OK, I'm not one to fanboy over much, really. But when Peter and/or Angie Mayhew offer advice on improving my Chewbacca costume build...9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/StarWars

Confused dad one more time. Here's how her Aradia turned out. Thanks for all of the help! Sadly we got so into the con Friday that we never thought to ask someone to take a photo for us. A few took photos OF us, but I haven't seen them online. :-( On Saturday she stole the fedora. :-)11yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/homestuck
There's no beating cosplay build advice like this... I still can't get over how awesome the Internet is.9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/cosplayers
10 years in the making (mostly because I was afraid to screw it up.) A real vintage Graflex 3-Cell (don't tell the photo geeks) and a little clean-up and DIY. I'm just missing the red button, now. I am geeking out so hard right now!!!10yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/StarWars
Despite dire warnings from fellow wookiee builders, it turns out a curling iron on low does NOT melt good quality 100% kanekalon fibers. I've got like, 30 days to go until my event... eep!!9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/cosplayers
Yeah, so I can die a happy and content man, now that Peter Mayhew approves of my Chewbacca build!9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/StarWars
Sadly I didn't finish Chewy in time for my targetted convention debut, but I did get a chance to test out the upper costume and identify stuff to fix for next year. Connection 2016 will see an 8 foot tall, roaring wookiee with all the trimmings! me as Chewy and my daughter Haruko Haruhara. :)9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/cosplayers
So... this just sort of... lives in our living room now. I guess I need to fabricate a case for it, too...9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/cosplayers
My first mostly successful attempt at hair punching on a silicone (platsil gel) mask. I still need to add a few more randomly placed bits to make this look more natural, but I'm pretty happy so far.9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/cosplayers
I hope I'm not overdoing it with so many incremental progress shots. FYI, though, Vallejo powdered pigments work pretty great on platinum silicone9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/cosplayers
Something new I made this weekend, with copper plumbing pipe, old coins, and polymer resin.12yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/somethingimade

I got bored and decided to make a chess set out of polymer clay and odds and ends. The Death figure is the black king. He was looking pretty badass in glossy black before I painted him. Now he's sorta zombie dreadlocked Jesus died for your pot habit...12yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/somethingimade
4 more months until Connecticon... can you guess who I'm gonna be cosplaying there? That's 5 shades of synthetic hair in there... almost individually placed. Does it look convincing?9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/StarWars
A sort of new year's resolution to start drawing again led me to this amateurish attempt to illustrate the main characters of the new sci-fi podcast I'm writing...11yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/Illustration
Spotted this little dude on the way home from the grocery store this morning. Chased off some moron who was trying to take him home. My wife and kids continued home while I stood guard until the animal control officer could arrive. 13yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/aww
Guys, if you haven't yet had a Lapu Lapu... you really need to have a Lapu Lapu -- if you're drinking age, anyway. (Sorry about cluttered post-dinner table.)10yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/WaltDisneyWorld
My daughter drew Mickey Mouse with her crayons while I was making dinner tonight. He's so cute, daddy! she says.10yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/funny
For some reason, the full size bars just don't seem to bring much repeat traffic year after year... guess I'm the creepy guy on the street?13yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/pics
This is Irving, who was a complete and utter bastard when I rescued him from the campus of the hospital where I worked almost 10 years ago, and who spent the last year or so becoming an affectionate sweetheart just so that I'd be sad when he died.9yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/pics

Uhhh... what is this? I mean.. specifically, since it's clearly labeled. [x-post from /r/pics]13yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/WTF
I combined some silver coins I inherited, wildflowers from my front yard, and some suede cord into something pretty cool.12yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/pics
Another attempt at pegothejerk's coin pendant tutorial. I've got a lot to learn about resin casting, and I need to figure out how to better preserve pressed flowers, but they look pretty groovy.12yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/somethingimade
Today is Molly's 4th birthday. She almost didn't get a first birthday because of a nearly fatal case of red mange that took 9 months and nearly $10,000 to treat.13yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/pics
Locks of Chewie's hair, anyone? (cosplay progress, I've got about 10 months to finish...)10yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/StarWars
Why is there such a market in the US for obscene food? I understand the novelty factor, but does anybody actually ENJOY eating things like this?13yr ⋅ MadeByMonkeys ⋅ r/pics
