I'm amazed how much you ALREADY look like Loki. I thought those pictures were THE ACTOR FROM THE MOVIES, then I realized it was you! Wow. Great project.
Dear Kyle, I really like how you figured out a way to make your eyes glow like that. If you could get your hands on some red uv contacts with the whole bit but the pupils being red, You could get it to where you had the Loki/Frost giant transforming thing going on lol.
Thanks Thanks Thank you so much. Did the Oz-Comic con today (12/06/2016) as Raiden from Mortal Kombat and it was a success. Many smiles, many amazed, many scares, many laughs, many compliments and hundreds of pics with fans. Your circuit diagram is spot on. Mounted 4 LEDs and resistors to a strip of PVC, shaped it and attached to the inside brim of the hat. I ain't a typical cosplayer, this was like a once off Bucketlist thingi to-do's. I may do it again soon due to positive reactions. You are Awesome and hope to shake your hand one day. Thanks again so much you have no idea. BTW, I'm a kiwi too residing in Melbourne. Hats off to you :D
I really want to use your contact lens trick for a future cosplay. I have looked for UV contact lenses like the one you have that cover the iris and pupil but only found the "Rave lenses". The "Rave lenses" will work but the ones you have will be perfect for it. Where did you buy them?
That's awesome. I'm thinking about about doing Gambit cosplay next year at Dragon Con here in Atlanta and I would love to have glowing red/magenta eyes. Is there a way to achieve that effect using this method?
Hey Kyle, Do you have a link to get the contact lenses? I cant seem to find some that cover both pupil and iris. Trying to get my costume together Thank you brother. -Alex
+kyleofasgard I would love to adapt this idea for a Stargate Goa'uld cosplay, for the pulsing yellow/gold eyes, but I'm not sure how to do it. The general idea is contacts that react to a light shining on my eyes- maybe hidden in a pair of eyeglasses? Ideally, I'd like my eyes to appear normal then glow menacingly on command. Any advice you can offer will be appreciated.
Do you think there might be some kind of face paint you could put on your eyelids for a similar effect? You'd have to shut your eyes, obviously, but on the plus side you wouldn't burn them up (or whatever).
thank you. i hope do do this soon. i just noticed you said that in the video but thanks for not being a jerk and judt telling me XD. one last question. where did you get the contacts and which ones did you get? i only see colored uv ones and you said yours are clear but glow blue.
Isn't having some leds with thin flesh colored wires better? Led's are mostly translucent, can be very small and mainly throw light forwards instead of back. So there isnt much goign into your eyes.
Could you do this with other colors? It would be sick for Blizzcon and this would be perfect if I cosplay as my blood elf paladin which has green eyes, but if it's only blue I do have a death knight who would fit the bill.
+Kamila Suszko should have one were u can change diffrent colours as u like, so wen ur happy have blue etc as u get angry and made put on red and depending on ur anger intensify the light go do this in my granddad village in sudan everyone will believe the devil has taken ur soul lol
To all that are wondering about changing the color, it simply comes down to buying different colored uv glow contacts. The contacts are manufactured in different colors with the purpose to glow under uv lights. So you would simply have to change what contacts you are wearing. It however wouldn't surprise me if there was a "reflective contact" like the high viz safety gear strips. And those would amplify different colors, but I don't know if they make any.
Oh man... so Bruce. I have a question though. You can make them brighter or dimmer but Is there a way to make them slow activating? Like when they come on they do so slowly? I cannot find a how to anywhere and if you know a place can you give me a point to?
Here ya go mate, these are in new zealand, but just search for this style bodyfxshop.com/products/fancy-contact-lense-uv-electric-blue?variant=961830520¤cy=NZD&gclid=CjwKCAiAu9vwBRAEEiwAzvjq-zsrMYgSYxRWAseI1aEYVKrURrVk8rU_ISkXoRB4zROxaZRHcvkzJhoCXVEQAvD_BwE
Hey mate, I'm really sorry but somehow the diagram got the ban hammer. I made a new video for the circuit though which requires less soldering and is also remote controlled. Check out the thor glowing eyes video to see how I did it there :) much easier haha
If you go on adafruits website and look up, Electroluminescent (EL) Panel . That might be a safer option. You have the ability to cut this material as long as the connector is still attached. Not as bright either.. But way less likely to hurt your eyes.
@@KyleofAsgard yo thanks a lot I was putting in different stuff but couldn't find it before thanks for responding, oh I also forgot what are the names of the little lights you're using and power pack your running it from? I'm gonna wire it all to a regular hat and do the new purge for October, and if you have any suggestions on this build all input is welcome
@@KyleofAsgard I ended up going to RadioShack and got everything I needed I just need to get the tools to solder and that's on its way I'm pretty excited about it
I'm gonna need to make these at some point...
That's the second time you said that for my glowing eyes effect, I think its time you put your money where your mouth is and make it happen ;) haha
Oh hey hacksmith, I'm only here because I remember watching this years ago
No way...
I just googled "glowing eye lenses" for fun, and I found you Hacksmith, what a coincidence!
@@KyleofAsgard: Dose that hurt your eyesight?

With those blue eyes you kinda look like the lich king... Ya know... Minus the flaming particle effects
And minus the Frostmourne.
Well, you've just earned another subscriber purely on the strength of this brilliant little trick! Superb work!
That is absolutely brilliant! Awesome Loki cosplay!!!

i'm at this video wanting to learn the eye glow trick because I saw you doing it at OZCC XD
Thanks for doin' such great stuff, it looks insane! Props to all people who are cosplayin'!

subbed because i really like people that create new things
Thank you for posting this video, it is so inspirational. HUGE thanks.
Nice work! You've chosen your character perfectly. Suits you.
Thank you for sharing this. I've never put 2 and 2 together. Great effect. Now to find multicolor lenses.
This is amazing Kyle. The idea with the contacts was real neat!
I´m a HUGE fan of Loki xD
duuude!!! that the coolest evvvverrr!!!!! what a creative idea!!
this is absolutely brilliant, thanks for sharing!
Dude, you rock! The eyes look so cool.
Just now running across this clip. Great idea with the black lights! I've been looking for the same effect for a scifi costume. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback mate, my latest videos has a newer/easier version to make if your keen to have a look :)
That's awesome. I'm thinking about about doing Gambit cosplay next year at Dragon Con here in Atlanta and I would love to have glowing red/magenta eyes. Is there a way to achieve that effect using this method?
I could do the eye effect in after effects but in real life that looks so bad ass awesome video bro.
The best I've seen. Great job 👍

try it with regular blue leds. my projector has a blue standby screen that makes certain colors like this glow bright
Do you think there might be some kind of face paint you could put on your eyelids for a similar effect? You'd have to shut your eyes, obviously, but on the plus side you wouldn't burn them up (or whatever).
Where did you find these particular contact lenses, I am unable to find a source for total glow lenses
great job and good choice for you !!! you are a amazing loki !
Brilliant Video, What's The Battery That You Used For The LED?, And What Kind Of Switch To Make Them Turn On And Off?
Question: where did you get those little bulbs? I want to do something similar
Brother the UV lenses that i find are colored also in daylight...i dont want that do these have some special name specification? im from (DE)
incredibly brilliant cosplay idea!
Is glowing pink color available? Is bc I would like to cosplay the Clash of Clans' Witch
would u like to tell me where u get this lens ?
:)
I LOVED the tutorial for this... to give my walk-about demon costume that extra bit of oomph. THANK YOU!
What type of led do you use? Just regular blue or back light?
anyway to keep this from hurting your eyes?
I'm trying to find bulbs to create i ordered your exact contacts but I'd appreciate if you can send me the link where you bought your bulbs. Thanks
I want to know where you get the black lights tho
BTW, Is It Made Parallel Or Series?
Kyle of Asgard, you are brilliant🔥🫢. This is a Gazillion dollar idea🤯
thank you. i hope do do this soon. i just noticed you said that in the video but thanks for not being a jerk and judt telling me XD. one last question. where did you get the contacts and which ones did you get? i only see colored uv ones and you said yours are clear but glow blue.
IS this the i-Glow Clear UV Contact Lenses?
Do these contacts come in a yellow version?
we're did you get those contact lense?
Where can u get those UV blacklight l.e.d.s ??
is that helmet made out of EVA foam?
Where did you get your cosplay at?
dude this is so freaking cool. thanks for sharing.
que tipo de lente é essa?
what contatcs did you buy????
Where can I buy those lenses?
Isn't having some leds with thin flesh colored wires better? Led's are mostly translucent, can be very small and mainly throw light forwards instead of back. So there isnt much goign into your eyes.
would that damage your eyes
Would you do a commission piece by chance?
We’re did you get the eye contecs
You can get these contacts from FantasyEyes online. They are called Ghastly Ghost contact lenses
Insane RivenNA just search UV Electric Blue and you'll find them
that is really awesome! and i love your hair ._.
what kind of controller device are you using?!
That would be neat for future projects! both for eyes and other effects!
Subbing right away!
Get out! This is so cool! Love it!
I really really want a loki costume, do you sell yours? pleeeaaase...
That's freakin' AWESOME!!!!
Do you still live in Wellington?
Could you do this with other colors? It would be sick for Blizzcon and this would be perfect if I cosplay as my blood elf paladin which has green eyes, but if it's only blue I do have a death knight who would fit the bill.
AetherDreamSeeker I was thinking this too! I’m two years late😅 but still haha
Is there any possible way to do this without a helmet because the character for which I need it does not wear a helmet or any head gear really
Comes down to your creativity, you need the contact lenses, and a source for the leds to shine from, could be a staff, helmet, glasses, hat, etc
Name of the contact lenses ??
This is ridiculously cool.
Can you get red ones that would glow as much as them when they fluoresce??
Yes, Simply search UV Black light contact lenses
This is fantastic!
Question, would this work with a hood as well?
And THAT was exactly the answer I needed. Thanks KoA!
How you make these
Is it possible to do this with red eyes?
+Kamila Suszko should have one were u can change diffrent colours as u like, so wen ur happy have blue etc as u get angry and made put on red and depending on ur anger intensify the light go do this in my granddad village in sudan everyone will believe the devil has taken ur soul lol
Kam i was wondering the same with red
I came here wondering the same thing. Trying to come up with a low-key Slim Summers cosplay.
Edit: Hehe, low-key.
To all that are wondering about changing the color, it simply comes down to buying different colored uv glow contacts.

So you would simply have to change what contacts you are wearing.

brooo i took a photo with you at armageddon last year! awesome :)
Oh man... so Bruce. I have a question though. You can make them brighter or dimmer but Is there a way to make them slow activating? Like when they come on they do so slowly? I cannot find a how to anywhere and if you know a place can you give me a point to?
If you're really ambitious, you could use the DAC output of a microcontroller
If you can make the lights slowly activating, that's really it.
This is amazing and clever.
Hey brother what kind contact lens you where
Here ya go mate, these are in new zealand, but just search for this style bodyfxshop.com/products/fancy-contact-lense-uv-electric-blue?variant=961830520¤cy=NZD&gclid=CjwKCAiAu9vwBRAEEiwAzvjq-zsrMYgSYxRWAseI1aEYVKrURrVk8rU_ISkXoRB4zROxaZRHcvkzJhoCXVEQAvD_BwE
Brilliant idea.
Hey the diagram 404's I really want to make the led with the fader, was wondering if you could provide this info? Thanks
Hey mate, I'm really sorry but somehow the diagram got the ban hammer. I made a new video for the circuit though which requires less soldering and is also remote controlled. Check out the thor glowing eyes video to see how I did it there :) much easier haha
@@KyleofAsgard okay cool thanks man
hmmm cool as fuck.. but probably not a good idea :D isn't that UV light likely to cause damage ??
Yes, It can be harmful and isnt recommended.
If you go on adafruits website and look up, Electroluminescent (EL) Panel . That might be a safer option. You have the ability to cut this material as long as the connector is still attached. Not as bright either.. But way less likely to hurt your eyes.
You're the man, bro!
Where did you get the lenses from please we all want these!
Neat
You can get them at coloryoureyes.com
o Darkrai o I do not see them on coloryoureyes. They have uv lenses but none of them are clear
is there any color red? I wanna do terminator
Yes, You will just have to find some "uv" glowing red contact lenses :)
There's a place online called Halloween contacts and they have a variety of UV contacts
Is this bad for My eyes?
is the red color available?
cool ! thanks to tell me XD hehe
You can put this on a hoodie eh?
Does it strain your eyes after a while?
If you do it nonstop for hours on end, yes if it is just for a couple of minutes here and there, then no.
Any information will help, where can I get that switch or what's the name of it so I can search it? I'm trying to build a light setup like you have
@@KyleofAsgard yo thanks a lot I was putting in different stuff but couldn't find it before thanks for responding, oh I also forgot what are the names of the little lights you're using and power pack your running it from?
