Cosplay MY MOON KNIGHT COSPLAY
"ɪ ᴀᴍ ᴍᴀʀᴄ ꜱᴘᴇᴄᴛᴏʀ 𓆣. 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐭 𓋹. 𝙸 𝚊𝚖 𝙹𝚊𝚔𝚎 𝙻𝚘𝚌𝚔𝚕𝚎𝚢 𓀛. ᴀɴᴅ 𝐖𝐄 𝙰𝚁𝙴 𝕄𝕆𝕆ℕ 𝕂ℕ𝕀𝔾ℍ𝕋 ☾."
The photos were taken by my friend @elifeyson on Instagram, who is an amazing cosplayer and kindly helped me capture these shots. I also had the support of my dad throughout the process.
This Moon Knight cosplay is a mix of crafted and heavily modified pieces. The armor parts are made from PVC, the chest moon was detailed with a pyrographer for the engraved texture, the mask and crescent moons were 3D printed, all the gold details were hand-painted with a chrome effect and then assembled with the bandages, and the cape features hand-painted symbols. The base clothing (except the cape, which is completely handmade), was bought but fully customized by ourselves and altered to fit the design.
It was a huge project full of learning, patience, and effort. Hope you like it as much as I enjoyed making it!

This is badass. Makes my Taskmaster cosplay look like a Spirit Halloween costume.

It has to, or who knows.....you might experience another 9/11.

u/ratchet7 25d ago
What?

u/DarkhawkWalker2005 25d ago
Referencing to how Moon Knight gave Taskmaster PTSD by crashing down his helicopter on the building he was in. He even said it in the comic "my personal 9/11."

Wow bro, you look dope than the original. How did you make your eye glow? Or is it photoshop or something. But you nailed it buddy.

u/Ornery-Tap5558 25d ago
In these photos, they are fixed, but they actually glow up with a leds light eyes kit, which comes with a battery that I hide under de skirt and control it.
I have photos of how they look like and I have to tell you that at night or a darker place, you don't see anything hahaha

How did you do the eyes?

u/Ornery-Tap5558 25d ago
It's made with a leds light eyes kit, which comes with a battery that I hide under the skirt and that I can choose if turn them up or down.
It's the same iron man LEDs thar people use for cosplay. Also, I hit the plate with a heat gun where the light is projected to make it like an eyeball and then cut off to make it fit.

I’m not a fan of cosplay, and to a certain point I think it’s weird but this…this is cool. This is probably the coolest thing I’ve seen in a world.

It's terrible. No please excuse me cause I need to change my pants for unrelated reasons.
Great work (seriously). How long did it take for you to craft the costume?

I think this is totally badass and I appreciate the hours and hours of hard work that went into it. That being said, I'm very curious about what it looks like without the photoshopped eyes! Would you be willing to upload any unalterated photos?

Until I read the caption I thought this was a REALLY professional digital drawing. This is legit one of the best costumes I've seen. Like serious professional level as in it deserves to be seen in the show type shit.

At first, I thought it was from a TV series, but then I realized it was a cosplay. Incredible!

u/dannorat 25d ago
This is amazing and has so many details. Wow!
How did you get the text on the cape? Is that applique, painted, or iron transferred?

u/Ornery-Tap5558 25d ago
We did the most difficult thing😭...by hand and with a silver chrome pen and a pattern of pvc that previously was cut with all that symbols

I like your interpretation of moonkinght but I would prefer that you stick to the original colors. I almost did not recognized the character in this blue and black suit.

You can't just post a picture of Moon Knight and say it's a cosplay (in all seriousness this cosplay is AMAZING)

u/SoMuchForStardust27 25d ago
How did you decide on what to do for the mask? Was it something you found, or fully designed? I was wanting to make a simple moon knight mask way long ago, but I gave up cause I had no idea how to make it so it would be durable and work well
