Custom Cosplay Props and Character Builds
I bring characters from your favourite comics and games to life. Whether it is a wearable prop for a convention or a display piece that hits different, I build it from scratch.
An action shot of my Spider-Punk cosplay. I made the entire suit, including hand-painting the details on the pants and weathering the jacket and guitar.
A detailed look at the Buzz-axe prop I built for my Krieg cosplay from Borderlands. I used a ruler to show the scale and the intricate, weathered paint job.
Testing the spinning mechanism of the Krieg Buzz-axe. I installed bearings to make sure the blade spins freely, just like in the game.
The unpainted mask for my Krieg cosplay. I built the base structure from foam and other materials before starting the detailed paint job.
My full Spider-Punk cosplay on display at Mumbai Comic-Con, where it won in the Movie Category. The custom-painted guitar was a key part of the look.
A full-body shot of the Spider-Punk cosplay. I tried to capture the rebellious, punk-rock energy of the character Hobie Brown from the movie.
The different parts of the Krieg Buzz-axe laid out before assembly. Each piece was individually crafted and painted to achieve that signature Borderlands cell-shaded look.

The finished and fully painted Krieg mask and Buzz-axe, looking like they were pulled straight out of the game. The weathering and battle-damage effects were fun to create.
Another dynamic pose in my Spider-Punk cosplay. The lighting in this parking garage gave it a really cool, moody vibe.
About Cosplay & Prop Creations
Getting the mechanics right is half the battle. For props like my Borderlands Buzz-axe, I do not just focus on the paint—I build in functional elements like spinning bearings so the prop moves just like it does in the game. It is not just a showpiece; it is built to be played with and shown off.
When I build a prop, I am not just creating a replica. I am trying to capture the soul of the character. Whether it is a Borderlands-style buzz-axe or a full Spider-Punk suit, the process starts with a deep dive into the source material. I use a mix of materials like EVA foam, wood, and acrylics to get the weight and look just right.
Most people see a clean prop and think that is the end. But for me, the magic is in the weathering. I use paint techniques to add grime, rust, and battle damage, because that is what makes a piece look real. If it is a character like Krieg, it needs to look like it has been through a war. If it is Spider-Punk, it needs that raw, DIY energy.
I usually handle everything from the base construction to the final clear coat. If you are in Mumbai, we can jam and figure out the design. If you are outside the city, I ship across India, making sure the prop is packed secure so it reaches you ready for the con or the display case. Let's make something that makes people look twice.
