I was going to try and capture the image myself, but that video doesn't want to work for me. When I try to play it on Quicktime, it automatically closes down. :hmmm:

Oh the screen capture woes. You could try downloading it from the trailers section on the site and trying a different application? Like...winamp or anything?

Well, it isn't a movie but there's a page from WO2 Databook of Taigong Wang Right side in KW site here, TaigongWang#4 >> http://koeiwarriors.co.uk/artworks/mo/rdl/db/taigongwang4.jpg

Hope it can help you a bit, serene_ai :s

Good luck at making your cosplay everyone ^^
Sorry, I don't know for Fu Xi under his cloak, Greenzaku :s
Thanks, I've been using that, but beloved Taigong just has his arm over the part I wanted to re-confirm. For now I'll just have to do with what I have and bother my friend to give my game back. He's had it long enough (2 months)

@Grenzaku: I can asure you, there is nothing special under his cloak :) It's a bit blury, cause he refused to stand still, but see yourself: http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/6152/fuxibackmp1.png

I can try makin a few more, if you think it will help.

@Xiaoqiaorocks:
Glad to be of help ;)

Btw. I use VLC player which has an integrated screenshot function.

Erm, this was the best I could do with a crappy youtube vid (on high quality)...

I hope you can even tell there's a cape in that picture. XD
It doesn't look like there's really much underneath his cape. It looks like a purple color.

Edit: Nevermind, serene-ai found a much nicer version. :XD

Hey it's alright...I'm guessing from the picture there really isn't much under there. I'm downloading the clip now.
Thanks Qing Long, kuni_izumi, serene_ai and Manji. :)

edit: Seen the clip...its actually very informative, on how the two side straps of his belt connect back to the waist, and that he has 9 flaps to his coat altogether, in groups of three (left, back, right)

Glad to be of help. XD I think dissecting costumes and sketching out deconstructions is my real love. I'm so bad about actually MAKING them.

@kuni_izumi: Practise makes perfect. Everyone starts out small ;) Believe me, I know about it. But the more you sew, model and work with different kinds of fabric and other materials, the more secure you get and the easier it is to create them :)

Since I started cosplaying, I've also been making normal clothes for a friend and once in a while for myself. Or smaller projects, like sewing a toy following an instruction. These little projects didn't use up much fabric, thus it wasn't that critical to mess up and usually it was some sort of cheap fabric too ;)

Thought it does belong in another thread, I'm willing to give suggestions or help finding things for any kind of cosplay :) Just give a call.

Well I have wonderful help in the form of my mother actually, it's the buying the supplies and actually DOING it that's hard. Especially when I have to work so hard at school.

Edit: Sorry Manji, I tangent easy. :blush:

Sorry, I'll try looking later for back images, the WO2 trailers on KW site won't run on my computer for some reason.

No problem!

This was the best I could find for the back of her costume though... doesn't seem like their are any high quality WO2 story mode vids on youtube. >_<
Hope it's sufficient:

One of the super high res pictures shows her sexy back.

It's on the other computer, I'll post it tomorrow if no one else does before hand. It's the picture where she's fluffing her ponytail.

Edit: Here you go.

Manji's shot gives you a better look at her upper back, but this should help with her fancy 'booty decor'.

Does anyone have pictures of the equip-able items from SW1/2 DW games?

I got some great bamboo mats I want to make into props that I could die green (wind scroll) or something, but reference pictures are being hard to come by.

Does anyone have a REALLY good and tall close-up picture of Taigons purple talisman-like thingy holding the black sleeve and the tourquise scawl together?

I wanted to do the golden patter per hand, but I failed after all, trying to trace it on paper via pencil.

I appriciate everyone trying to help :)

You mean big enough/straight on so you can make a traceable pattern from it?

Edit:

I tried magnifying this picture with photoshop but the original is too small and just comes out too blurry to work with. Maybe if someone has SUPER HIGH RES scans of the data book they can blow it up for you.

For plain reference this one is pretty good.

Or you might consider trying to duplicate the simplified version on Yuran's costume (Since she already posted this to the community I'm guessing she won't mind if I share. If she does ask though I'll be more than happy to take it down). Yuran says she commissions most of her costumes, you might ask her who made the talisman and if they used a patter/would share it.

Thanks kuni_izumi, I already asked her via PM if it would be possible for her to make a close-up shoot of the talisman and lend it to me :)

I'm unfortunately apparently not gifted enough to make such detailed works without a clear, large version. I'm going to re-try with the image you linked :) That was my emergency-plan in the worst case.

Nonsense! You're plenty gifted I bet. It's just a REALLY COMPLEX little design there. Just keep trying until you get one you like, then photocopy it or something so you don't lose it and use it to make a template.

Alright I did it.
After fiddling around what seemed forever, I finally curshed the idea of re-designing it myself and instead grabbed a picture and re-sized the talisman, before going over it with the "magic and holy graphic tablet" I have had in my possession since christmas.

Here is the talisman (in simple colors of yellow and purple) for all attempting Taigong Wang.

Taigong Wang's talisman

Just re-size it to whatever size you need for your costume :)

Maybe we could make a link collection or some sort of gallery for all reference material that has been posted here to each and every character?

Nicely done! -saves it- I actually collect massive amounts of costuming reference material on the Warriors characters (obsessively renamed and cataloged) just in case someone needs them, but it would be amazing to be able to build a site that kept track of each costume everyone made step by step to help others.

Rachel alone would be able to amply supply some of the hardest characters, and if Kaman and Laura pitched in how they made their costumes it would be AMAZING.

@Doughnut: No problem, I know how frustrated I was at first. And I'll probably be doing Taigong in summer/fall. Depends on how fast I work.

Is there a detailed picture of the 4th weapon? I'm used to seeing the third one with the pink rod and the torquise dragon-shaped head on the end. As I'm not to fond of pink I was wondering what the 4th one looks like.
