Dutch 2025 Cosplay Creation

Next year, do the final showdown Dutch’87. Easy costume, roll around in a load of mud beforehand and bingo!! Then have a Tiki torch, bow n arrow and (fake, not sure what the laws are where you are so best be safe) Combat knife.

Oh, and a huge cigar!! (that would fit with 2025 too, but I am not endorsing smoking Kass so easy there with that ban hammer pls)

Looking good so far, great work!!

I’ve had very good results using neodymium magnets glued to the piece and sewn into the fabric, but I mostly use stuff carved out of EVA foam or PLA 3D prints, both of which are very light. Not sure what material you used for the mask.

Sadly no, I wouldn’t have time to make it when the convention is literally around the corner.

Thank you! Also I’m sure there’s a easier way without me getting dirty, possibly could make a suit to look like mud but that’ll need to be experimented.

The magnets part isn’t such a bad idea since that’s what was used for the Gauntlet and it seems to work like a charm. However I think I might resort to using some sort of tape or rope similar to how Dutch 2025 wears his shoulder mask

Wow that’s very interesting! And I can do that with my stuff too??? Wont it stain?

That’s the point- it’s supposed to stain it a little bit to add more detail

Scared to get your hands dirty? That outfit looks too clean. Looks like an outfit of a man pushing pencils.

-3- well I do like to write things…soooo…I AM THE PENCIL PUSHER!!! MWHAHAAHA

Well let me run some tests and practice before even attempting but thank you for showing me

if you want to look dirty n worn use some dollar store acrylic paint mixed with water…u can wash it out if you need later. for mud maybe mix some liquid latex and brown acrylic dollar store paint together and let it dry. thin sheets dry in 10 mins and you can stick em to anything.

Did you make the wristblade-knife?

Never mind. I found the post where you said you didn’t have time to make it before the convention.

Sadly did not, even asked for IllFonic had any in the back since they handed out Dutch’s 2025 knife out to others, but sadly there were no more.

Might be able to make a cardboard one in the future though

Update on the Cosplay: I FINALLY GOT THE SHOULDER PIECE TO WORK! Thank to the help of my dad who saw me struggling, he lended and hand so now it feels like a group project^^

you could make a dutch knife from wood…draw it on cardstock and trace it on wood and cut it out…but if you dont have a power saw just get a sheet of 3mm sintra plastic from a sign shop and trace the pattern out and cut it out with a box cutter. just stack a few together like the ply of a skateboard for thickness sand and shape. https://youtu.be/uqykpLCE9mU

Great suggestion! I’ll see if I have any material similar and try that out when I have the time😁

Question to anyone who sees this! The time is coming closer to not only showing off the full design of Dutch 2025 but also the video of me experiencing my first convention in cosplay. However this cosplay won’t have everything, one them being the Dutch Predator Knife & the Dutch’s Gun. The one that might hurt the most might be the Net Scars on the right side of Dutch’s face, so I ask how badly would I get crucified for not being that good at makeup to recreate those scars?😅😅😅
