Yang Xiao Long Post-Timeskip Prosthetic Arm Prop Worklog / Tutorial


This is my first time making a prosthetic type of prop in cosplay so the entire process is a little bit of a trial and error for me. There are a lot of things I could have changed to make it better but I am still very pleased with how it turned out.

This will be the start of my Yang Xiao Long Post-Timeskip cosplay worklog series. I'll be posting the entire costume worklog soon.

(Part 2 | Complete Worklog)

I also did Yang's first version cosplay. You can check out my complete worklog here.

Materials:
  • Pattern paper (or any paper you can use to draw patterns)
  • Form-fitting gloves (or you can make one yourself with a black stretch fabric)
  • Cling wrap
  • Masking/Duct tape
  • 2mm Rubber Sheet/Craft foam (we mostly call it rubber sheets here so I'm going with that term)
  • Super Glue
  • Crack filler/Sealant
  • Primer (I used wood glue mixed with water in 1:1/8 glue-water ratio)
  • Spray Paint (or whatever you prefer)
    • Metallic Gray (I know I used black here which was a mistake. I didn't double check my references when I went buying for materials)
    • Yellow
  • Velcro
  • 0.5 cm elastic garter
