[Webcomic] MSPA: Let me tell you about Homestuck...

Sooooo, today, me and a couple of friends decided to print and cut out 60 baby Daves and tape them around school as tomorrow's our last day... Here's hoping the little guys are all in one piece tomorrow haha.

Oh Jack Noir. You coy man, you~

^ Spoiler that image, yo.

 Happy Cinco de Mayo.

God Cat QB, why must you exist? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Since we're all Homestuck fans in this thread, I figure I'd ask here.

ACEN has already re-buried itself into my head. This time I'm pondering a scenario where I'd go as John Egbert. The only thing though, I will only go as John if I can make THIS hammer. The TELESCOPIC SASSACRUSHER. Yeeeeeeees.



Now the rules on the site say exactly this:
" Is greater than your height in length when broken down.

~ Props must be approximately your height or less in length. (If you are under four feet (4’) tall, your prop may be up to four feet (4’) long.)"


and straight from an Admin as of April 28, 2011:
http://www.acen.org/forums/index.php/top...checklist/

"The Prop Acceptability Checklist
If you can answer yes to any of the following questions, the prop is not allowed.

Is the prop longer than the congoer's height when carried, if the congoer is at least 4 feet tall?
Is the prop longer than 4 feet when carried, if the congoer is less than 4 feet tall?"



Since I'm nearly 6 feet (~5'11"), I can safely get away with up to 5'~5' 6" prop parts. I figure PVC piping that can be unscrewed can work perfectly for the telescope bits.

Now to think, do you guys think this prop will be allowed at all, given how ludicrously huge it'll be when assembled? Since I plan to keep it roughly IN SCALE with John's body, this monster of a hammer will be at LEAST a good 12~15 feet. Then there's the matter of how to make the hammer bits (the hugeass cubes). Any ideas on making hollow, yet light cubes? FOR THE HAMMER CUBES, I believe they'd consider the longest dimension, for example measuring the cube DIAGONALLY may count towards the size limit. From what I found, a 4'x4'x4' cube is a LITTLE over 6', which means at most I should make the cubes about 3.5'~3.75' to play it safe. Not sure if they will be anal about 5' PVC pipes and measure those diagonally too.

As for storing the prop when not posing, I do aim to be able to place all the pieces on my back when I'm not posing for a picture. I also plan to either create either "Fear No Anvil" and possibly the "Wrinklef'ucker" so I can always be dual wielding. As for those 2.... I still gonna wonder where the hell I'll be holding THOSE props if my back will already be holding the SASSACRUSHER.



This is all brainstorming though, since I got a good 11+ months this time to plan things out.

^ Oh man, that would be SO AWESOME if you could pull that off. I also commend you on not going for the Warhammer of Zillyhoo, because as awesome as it is, practically every John cosplayer I've seen with a weapon has it.

You can probably make the cubes out of cardboard... but I have zero clue how to make things for cosplays. And if you do somehow manage to make it, you should include the gloves as well, since John's technically not able to wield it without them.

I know, plus I'd be pre-God Tier John, so wielding the Zillyhoo would cause a TIME PARADOX, and possibly WEIRD TIME SHI'T. Cardboard sounds like a plan. I'd probably need to find a way to harden it so to make the cubes sturdy enough to not break. As for the gloves, yah I plan to have a pair of the blue Ghost Gauntlets on top of the regular gauntlets for the regular sized hammers.
