Description "YES, IT"S FROM THE MOVIE EVERYONE"!!!!Foam latex suit pieces sculpted for the "Rinzler" character.
Worked with friend Steve Kotch on this suit sculpt.
Doing hard surface-very symmetrical sculpting on a not so symmetrical body form was quite a challenge.

Huh..that's different. I've created the foam rubber armor portion of the suit and I'm planning out the best way of entry and exit now.

Absolutely incredible, dude. Like others have said, great ref for artists and cosplayers.
I always found it interesting how little circuitry 'Tronzler''s design has. Especially when compared to Tron's original '82 outfit. I understand it's to fit in with the style of the new movie, but even then it's fairly sparse. I wonder if it's meant to symbolize something? Perhaps he is more like a User himself, than he thinks.

Kudos on takin' the pic with the blue circuitry.

Finally had time to come in here and comment. Found your DA link via the RPF Tron costume thread.

Thank you so much for posting your behind the scenes pictures of the actual movie costumes. For cosplayers, as myself, and for the ones that like to recreate costumes accurately, this helps us TREMENDOUSLY!

Very inspiring your work and I can only dream at this point in my life to get paid to do what you do for a living. For now, it is a mere hobby for me.... for the past 15 years

Check out my Quorra costume here in my profile if you have a moment. Would appreciate it!

Thanks so much!

First, I would like to apologize for all the comments from individuals who don't seem to read.

Secondly, I'm wondering, how was it to see it in the finish product of the movie? I imagine, with all the detail (which is just amazing and fabulous, I discover new things to the suit every time I draw it.) and time you put into it, it was an incredible sight.

Yeah, I'm actually kind of amazed by that. It was a pleasure to see him on the big screen.

Well for one, if you get a link from someone on tumblr who claims its a bad-ass cosplay, I'd call it 'mislead.' That and even with reading the artist's description, it can still come off as just that xD I've read countless cosplayer's artists comments that sound just like what he wrote.

However, wow, know that it's one of the actual suit sculptors accounts, then EXTRA kudos. As well, how often does the costuming creation department get praise for what we marvel at in films?!

:cheer: GO SUPER AWESOME COSTUME MAKERS! <3 where would Hollywood be without talents like this?

This is the suit for the actual movie, so it was professionally constructed by myself and many other people in several different departments.
