  • Here is everything you need to know about how I made my Tears of the Kingdom Link cosplay!!! I was planning on releasing this much earlier, but CapCut for some reason was opposed to editing a 20 minute video on my phone (wack). Technical difficulties were finally resolved and here is the video you've been waiting for!!

    Hi, you're really surprised I'm here, apparently. I was looking into what'd I'd need for a link cosplay and stumbled upon this video, which covered basically everything I needed and actually helped me start thinking more into the actual craft of it. I'm only here to say that next time you go into this much depth on making something like this, you should show us a bit of the technical bits you did to make the costume, if you are able to.
    Oh, and, could you maybe show us a bit on the prosthetic arm? Some also want the Hylian shield, but I have found a neat metal replica of both it and the master sword.

    • @notquiteicarus
      @notquiteicarus  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      So this was actually the first cos I'd ever made and I had about 6k followers on TikTok at the time lol! I didn't think to record the actual process because I didn't really know what I was doing crafting-wise (and I also had no idea people would want to know). I'm gonna try to film for some of my other projects though! Only issue is that I'm on a tight making schedule for cons and content, and filming slows down the process a Lot. But I'll see what I can do for y'all! I hope it's still helpful and I wish you the best of luck!! 💙

    @geekyfox1972 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I watched your TikTok and kicked through the door the very second you said you made a TH-cam video! First of all, holy hell, the amount of work and dedication is incredible (and makes sense considering the cosplay itself is genuinely one of my favourites), I pray for you and all of that hand embroidery omg!
    I'm most amazed by the armour, and I do have a question! When making the armour, specifically the bracers, did you make them to your exact measurement, or did you make them bigger? If so, by how much? :)
    (Off-topic, but I hope the construction of Rauru's arm is going well! :D)

    • @notquiteicarus
      @notquiteicarus  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      thank you so much, I really really appreciate it!!! let me answer ur question ant the bracers:
      the first undershirt I bought for this cos was a more chunky knit turtleneck, so I made the bracers to fit with its sleeves. but then I switched to a much thinner turtleneck for comfort after the bracers had been made 😭 so what I did was cut a long fuzzy sock in half and cut off the toe, then wear the halves like arm warmers under the bracers to make them fit :D

    I think the main chesplate is on the wrong side because in game it’s on links left side idk if yours is on your left side but the video looks like it’s on your right but it could also be that the camera flips everything

    I too am making a link costume but the Breath of the Wild version, i don’t know if you will see this but how did you make your boots. I was thinking about wrapping old cowboy boots but i’m not entirely that it would work.

    • @notquiteicarus
      @notquiteicarus  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I actually just recently got new boots!! I wanted to keep the feel of the hylian trousers, but I just felt like they were a little boring compared with the tunic. I ended up making some foam detailing to go on the toes and heels that matched the armor! I didn't add the cuffs at the top though so unfortunately I don't really have advice on that 🤷🏼
