The original “classic” Doctor Who remains a very popular inspiration for cosplayers… even if many of the materials used to make the original were specific or aren’t even made any more, and fashions may have changed in the intervening years. We will cover some weirder builds and props, how to source unusual patterns or types of materials, some pros and cons of these materials, and discuss how important true screen accuracy is when creating items with these limited or different resources.
Software engineer by day, stitcher by night. I grew up on BBC science fiction series shown on PBS in New York, and started making Classic Who and Blake’s 7 costumes as my midlife crisis activity.
