  • In preparation for biccolline I decided to distress my clothing, making them look a little more lived in. It really makes all the difference. This method can be used for cosplay, LARP, or any other branch of costuming.

    when I saw this I was like "oh wow I wonder what cool triks she has that I didn't think of?" finished video I should have expected nothing more, and now I am biking my outfit majestically through the water

    "... Your mother's dead" I laughed way harder at that than I should have.

    These are some great tips! My favorite for serious dirt: shoe polish, applied with a wadded paper towel and/or old toothbrush.

    Ahh it's so pretty! Distressing clothes is one of my favorite things about larp prepping. I've never thought of using a cheese grater (usually I cut a few little holes with scissors and go to town on it with sand paper to fray the edges) but I definitely want to try this now. :D

    Congrats on getting on the LARP panel! I had the honour of being at one of the first screenings of Treasure Trapped and the folks at Cosmic Joke have done an amazing job with it.

  • @shardliveactionroleplaying1113

    This is a cool idea to really complete a costume! All of the costuming for the Game of Thrones show was dirtied up to give it a more "authentic" look.

    Played a post apoc larp where adding some considerable lived in was needed. Decided that I needed a good 'got hit by a car' vibes. Found friend with a Mustang. And 3 burn outs later... easily identifiable and washable tire track. And some good grime all around.

    Hell, this just came in useful. My clothes always look pretty distressed, but I've got this zombie hunter thing which is challenging even my grunginess. If I was in my old job, I could just wear the "costume" - it doesn't really deserve the term - while angle-grinding and welding. Otherwise known as burning holes in it and occasionally just outright setting it alight. Many's the time I've looked down to find out where the creeping warmth was coming from and wished I'd had some marshmallows to hand. Anyway, enough wittering. Thanks for sharing you offbeat wisdom.

    hey sand paper and file can do some neet things to fabrics and I personally use them for jeans to make them more worn.

    (tip) rip it and sew cuts if your character is like a fighter, like with swords and stuff...

    I love how Treasure Trap was a British LARP summer camp a few decades back, and now LITERALLY EVERY OTHER LARP THING REFERENCES IT!!! XD

    • @rhidianbarrett8874
      @rhidianbarrett8874 Před 9 lety +1

      I'm Not Brian As far as anyone can tell Treasure Trapped was the first LARP system ever officially run. I know it's where things stated here in the UK. Every other system or LARP kit manufacturer in the UK can trace it's roots to it.

      Suki Shengshun I want to say cotton? I'm such a novice sewer I don't think with fabric types quite yet. I just walk around the fabric store feeling everything and imagining what the dress would feel like. I probably look like a weirdo

    How do you make it look like your character lost his/her hand? I'm designing my character for LARP, and she's missing her left hand from the wrist-up.
