  • When cosplayer Beverly Downen of @DownenCreativeStudios recently visited Adam workshop, he couldn't resist the opportunity to get her eyes and advice on his Dune Stillsuit cosplay project, which began its life as a replica costume he purchased from The RPF. Beverly's expertise and experience making her own stillsuit helps Adam prepare for what modifications and rebuilds he'll have to do for his own suit!

      Honestly I feel like that would go a long way towards selling the costume and making it not look like a flat replica. I get they're trying to be screen accurate but these suits *are* covered in water pipes and made to keep the user cool and hydrated in the deep desert. A sneaky hydration bladder and a creative water cooling pipe would elevate it from a cool replica into a true stillsuit.

    I am not a cos player nor a costume maker. I write code for a living and for fun. What Adam us describing matches my take exactly in that it is infinitely easier to take something that exists and “edit” or “iterate” on it compared to starting from the proverbial blank sheet of paper. Many times practically nothing remains of the original but it still served its purpose.

    While I can't speak for the actual costume maker, the weathering on the gloves may actually be spray paint. There are stone-texturing paints than are intended for use to paint plastic planters and things to make them look and feel more like concrete or stone. I used one of them for some PLA-printed statues from "Moon Knight," and the texture really does feel like sandstone.

    Hi Adam, Beverley an folks
    I don’t know if anyone has already mentioned this but some of the behind the scenes photos show the rig underneath the suit and as Beverly mentioned the sort of belt and codpiece bits are just on the simple underneath suit. Which is how I guess they can still move around in them.
    Great vid 🎉 👍 👌 😊

    I loved the stillsuits from David Lynch's version of Dune (even though the lack of any head protection from the sun is an issue), but I think these are more "realistic" and allow more freedom of movement if done right. Can't wait to see Adam's take on his suit.

  • @Redmenace96
    @Redmenace96 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Read the books, and am a fan. How many decades ago was the still suit just an idea? Had my own ideas in my head, back then.
    These renderings, and the current (excellent) movie fulfill my dreams. It is possible, it is near reality.
    The movies want to make it more muscular. My imagination was more like a scuba suit, but flowing and loose on the outside. Like the Beduin wear their kit.

  • @Zelmel
    @Zelmel ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I feel like an "accurate" stillsuit costume would basically be a cooling garment that had pouches in the thighs that (theoretically but probably not in reality) would pump from the thighs upward as you walked, IRL probably starting with ice in them. Like the tech in the books 100% just isn't possible, but modern cooling garments seem the closest to what they describe.

    • @brolohalflemming7042
      @brolohalflemming7042 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This is something I've wanted to try making. I guess the challenge is something that's screen-accurate rather than would 'work'. But I've always liked the potential of making a practical costume. The '84 versions looked like they'd get very hot, but because tubing, there's the possibility of integrating a cooling system. One thought I had is if you could use porous tubing and evaporation to help stay cool, but not sure how effective that would be. Plus the idea is to conserve water, so wandering around in a damp suit wouldn't seem right. Turning it into a cooled suit would instead need a place to hide the refrigeration unit, but that's always been one of the things that bothered me about the stillsuit ideas, ie the lack of heat exchangers on a dark costume that'd absorb both internal and external heat.
      Some day, I'm going to give it a try though :)

    • @AlasdairGR

    Not sure how accurate it would be, but using the shoes as pumps for lower body and breathing in and out for upper body. Then use mesh linen to absorb sweat. Running downward through suit then filtration system to get clean water. Must be a way to cool suit also. Maybe hands and arm movements have moisture go through hidden mesh covered heat transfer device.

    • @anthony7697
      @anthony7697 ปีที่แล้ว

      My guess would be some form of closed system 'evaporative cooling', essentially letting the sweat it would normally collect do it's job and start to evaporate, but trap the cool air in the suit as well as contain the evaporation so that it can then move to the filtration system in order to be recycled. Meaning likely no need for big heavy pats and all.

      A stillsuit doesn't just carry water it reclaims water from your body as you sweat and breathe. I don't think they filter the air though. Maybe to some extent? I don't know if Arakkis has any air purity issues. They're just low on surface water. I can't imagine what anyone eats there if it is as dry as the story says it is.
