This is the finished look of my headpiece. It actually came out being 3 pieces (shoulders, crown, halo) and strayed a little bit off of my original sketch but I like the outcome nonetheless.

"Pyramid Head" Headpiece Front View/Side View & Preliminary Sketches

# data[].attributes.body
I had an idea to use one of my favorite fictional characters, Pyramid Head, as inspiration for our headpiece assignment. Since he wears his signature "Pyramid helmet" headpiece. So I thought he'd be perfect to try and achieve.

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption
Pyramid Head character from Silent Hill series

# data[].attributes.body
This is Pyramid Head. The fictional character I based my headpiece off of. I made it a point to put him here on Padlet, so that people can see who it was that I was getting my inspiration from.

# data[].attributes.body
I did think about some other ideas but I just kept coming back to the idea of a hilariously huge hat brim.

# data[].attributes.body
I hot glued the cardboard strips into circles, and then stacked them to create a hat crown

# data[].attributes.body
On top I glued some cardboard scavenged out of the recycling.

# data[].attributes.body
After creating the crown portion I added a number of 24" spokes, which extended up the sides of the crown. Then I traced from point to point on some large heavy paper to create a circular brim.

# data[].attributes.body
Second layer of paper to sandwich the spokes. After this step I glued a strip of paper around the outside and one around the inside of the crown so it was a more level surface, but I forgot to take a picture of that step.

# data[].attributes.body
Some lightweight fabric, ribbon, and pompoms and it is done! I ended up liking the shape interaction of the square fabric on top of the circular hat, so I don't think I'm going to fill in those exposed paper bits (also it was getting quite heavy, and I was worried about it ripping, or I might have tried to fill in the empty spots with pompoms...)

# data[].attributes.body
Here it is on me, arms extended to show how big it is! I will probably take some final photos outside in the daylight at some point this week.

# data[].attributes.body
Here it is from the back, I have my arms straight forward holding the front of it up.

# data[].attributes.body
And lastly here with my arms extended backward so you can see that the front just flops over when I am not supporting it. This project was so, so funny. The whole time I was rolling around on the floor making it I was laughing to myself about how ridiculous it was going to look, and I was NOT disappointed when I finally put it on. I will come back and add photos of it with my frankengarment once that is done!

I got my fiance to take a photo of me wearing the "Pyramid Head" headpiece. I decided to get rid of the grating strips idea as I feel this gives it a more cleaner look overall & is more aesthetically pleasing.

...exploring possibilities to wear it...

# data[].attributes.body
The beginning...

# data[].attributes.body
First, I became familiar with the material, cardboard, I had never worked with it. I found out after trial and error that I could use Kraft tape to assemble some parts. I also used staples and assemblies to join the pieces.

# data[].attributes.headline
Lots of experimentation, lots of learning...

# data[].attributes.subject
Lots of experimentation, lots of learning...

# data[].attributes.body
I had to make some paper mockups before doing it with the cardboard.

# data[].attributes.body
For my idea I went with a men's suit jacket top and used a glue gun to attach cards or rather a suit of cards. Since I thought it'd be most fitting. I then sewed on and replaced the arms with a white t-shirt's arms and drew on card symbols. The cards on the main body are color coordinated and are arranged in chronological order for the playing card game. With the exception of the Kings, Queens, Jacks, & Jokers being saved for the sleeves in my second portion of my assignment. As shown in the Part B pics.

# data[].attributes.body
For my second half of the wearable sculpture assignment, I drew an abstract sort of Queen of Hearts onto the front of the white t-shirt. & then attached more cards via a hot glue gun onto the sleeves, which were already replaced by the men's suit jacket's. The cards on the sleeves were only made up of Kings, Queens & Jacks with a Joker on each back shoulder. Unfortunately, I didn't take a picture of the Joker but they're laying horizontally covering up the back end of each shoulder sleeve. Almost like a shoulder pad in a way for the suit jacket sleeve.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought the shadows of this piece was super interesting. It helped to better see the solid forms and the shapes they create when casted on by the sun.

This is Donna Beneviento. A Fictional Character and the Doll Maker from Resident Evil Village. I really like this cosplay of Donna Beneviento but she has a Porcelain Doll named Angie. The Porcelain Doll looks very scary but the Porcelain Doll does have Rhythm, Patter, and Texture on the Porcelain Doll’s Clothing but I decided to craft Donna Beneviento Hat instead of Angie.

# data[].attributes.body
I used the strip by using the tape to craft Donna Beneviento Hat.

I placed the Cardboard on the top by using the tape so I’m currently working in process to craft Donna Beneviento Hat.

for this assignment, i decided to make a hat from one of my favorite Mortal Kombat character, kung lao. his hat is simple yet very nice looking and dangerous. his hat is sharp and he uses it to cut his opponents

this is where my head would be when the hat is on. i used staples and hot glue to hold it in place on the disk

# data[].attributes.body
this is the disk i cut out of cardboard in a circle

# data[].attributes.body
the dome of the hat is glued on

# data[].attributes.body
i couldn’t find any brown paper to match the cardboard so i added some paper from my old show box to create the dome

# data[].attributes.body
what i did for this assignment was that i cut off the sleeves i once had on a hoodie i don’t wear anymore to a white t shirt that i have. i tried sewing but it was difficult but i tried. i then added some stickers for garments !

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption

I used the bath towel as covering the face so the picture that look like Donna Beneviento on the front view and also my crafting of Donna Beneviento Hat was covered by the Bath Towel.

# data[].attributes.body
My original idea was a flower, but I imagined the flower in my head, and I was not loving it, and when I imagined the center of the flower I had the idea of making a hot air balloon piece, because the bud of the flower looked a bit like a hot air balloon.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the balloon, made from cardboard strips. I made it look less like a flower bud by pulling it down a bit to make a more balloon shape and less lightbulb shape.

# data[].attributes.body
This is my daughter wearing the piece, the basket fits over her mouth and part of her nose, and their are straps to connect the pieces.

Hello everyone Unfortunately I only have progress pictures to share of my headpiece for now. I will finish the piece within the upcoming week once I get all my work done!

# data[].attributes.body
I was inspired by the reverse bear-trap from the Saw movies. Here is my sketch of my idea.

# data[].attributes.body
Here is the trap from the movie! I am roughly basing my idea off of this. All of the details might be hard to capture so mine will be a more simple version.

# data[].attributes.body
Here is the base that I have so far! I will update once I have more work done.

# data[].attributes.body
These are the sketches for the head I chose to do. I had a lot of other ideas but I didn’t like them as much as this one. My favorite animal is the giraffe so I thought it would be the perfect choice because the headpiece had to be large. I also chose to make it more blocky like a Minecraft character.

# data[].attributes.body
This was when I finished putting it together. In the beginning I didn’t have glue or tape and the only other thing I had was string. It worked but it was a little loose so I went and bought tape and hot glue. Now all I had to do was paint the details.

# data[].attributes.body
This was the giraffe head fully done and painted. It’s 3 feet tall so I’ll have to take a picture outside. I just have to finish the outfits for the final picture.

# data[].attributes.body
I recently learned about the Moai statue and I thought it would be kinda cool if I make that into a fully realize mask. Going further into the making process I was dissapointed to learn that Cardboard is too hard to work with my current toolbox, so I scratched that idea and I moved onto my backup one.
The one I ended up making is a bunch of paper strips stappled together to form a flower shape, and finally turn it into a hat.

# data[].attributes.body
Here is a crown thing I made to stitch the flower onto it.

# data[].attributes.body
I went a bit ambitious with my sketch, adding piece I had no clue how to actually create with cardboard in real life. My inspiration was the elaborate headpieces that Gods and Goddesses are often portrayed in. Un fortunately I didn't have enough time to add the eye covering and some of the halo details, so in the future I might look into revisiting this design and adding the pieces I missed.

# data[].attributes.body
I started first by creating the parts that were held up by my shoulders. I cut out the design I wanted and then bent the cardboard to a more rounded shape and attached with hot glue.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite part of the whole process was adding little cardboard details. I really liked the different coloring in the cardboard I had, I think it added a nice pop to the look.

# data[].attributes.body
Next piece was figuring out how to create the halo. With how my shoulder portion was made, I came across some issues when trying to create a look similar to my sketch while still making it functioning and wearable. I ended up settling on creating a detachable full circle halo and attaching it to the crown piece before photographing.

# data[].attributes.body
The crown was fairly simple to make once I figured out the correct measurements. I added two paperclip hooks and a twisty tie on the back to be able to attach and detach the halo.

# data[].attributes.body
This is my finished product for my wearable sculpture. I was inspired to make it resemble the wings of a black and white moth.

# data[].attributes.body
I ended up making the entire shawl out of my brothers old shirts that he no longer fits into. The piece is a simple wrap around, cut into the shape of back wings, with a hood included.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the back view where you can better see the shape of the design and the image transfer patches that I added to decorate my design.

# data[].attributes.body
My brother had a pile of old clothes that he no longer fit into and allowed me to use them for this project. I decided on the black and white color scheme because that is the color he had the majority of.

# data[].attributes.body
There was a ton of measuring and cutting involved which practically drove me crazy to get right. Mostly I cut the clothing into rectangular pieces of solid fabric so that it was easier to work with. I didn't have a pattern to base my design off of so I had to take constant measurements and refer back to my sketch often. I also got some advice on the trickier sections from my grandma who used to be a seamstress. My cat liked watching me measure (or enjoyed my suffering, not sure) and decided to sit with me most of this process.

# data[].attributes.body
There was a lot of sewing involved to piece everything together so I broke out my sewing machine. I don't usually have a lot of time to use this anymore so it was nice to actually get the chance to sew a piece of clothing once again. I was a bit worried that the material would be difficult to sew since it was so stretchy, but going at a slow pace worked well and saved me a lot of time from having to sew everything from hand.

# data[].attributes.body
This creation had a lot of trial and error since I never had a set pattern with solid measurements. I always had my seam ripper tool on hand so I could just undo and try again until I got it how I wanted it to look.

# data[].attributes.body
so i started with the chest piece since i thought that would be the easiest to start with. i personally love the look of gold decorations and stuff so i used this as an excuse  to add gold chains.
(i didn’t have enough materials for the head piece so i’m not finished yet. i need to find some more cardboard.)

# data[].attributes.body
This is the entire outfit finished. I used two of my moms old shirts and I cut pieces off of both shirts. I tried to make them equal on both so that they would make like a puzzle. I used safety pins to attach the pieces together and I also added some “fringe” on the collar area. I used some green and yellow glittery yarn for the fringe.

# data[].attributes.body
I spent the past few days thinking of new way of adding something that would somehow connect the two parts together, but unfortunately nothing come up so I just quickly hot glued the two together. Sometimes ideas are still idea, its not really practical until you try it yourself.
