Description My Ambitious project for next year; Top Cow's The Darkness. Good old Jackie Estacado will be fun to portray. I'll be working on a mask and full body suit. I will still be working on my body, toning and building myself as best as I can. This includes more dieting and proper training.

For now, I think I'll try to shoot for SDCC or Dragon*Con to debut final product.

Thanks! It's a good goal for me to push towards. I don't expect to be as ripped as the drawing to my left there. But I'm sure I'll be able to tone and build up pretty decent in 9 months.

It's nice that this project acts as incentive to work out
I'm pretty interested in how you'll make your costume look like the reference.

I can't wait to see yours when it's finished. I actually just finished making The Darkness and debuted it at Dragoncon this year, so best of luck!

I think I saw you walking around! I was trying to tell the Top Cow folks that I saw at least one person doing Jackie at D*C.

XD awesome! Sadly I only got to wear it to a private photoshoot because of some issues with the suit and boots, but I'm fixing all that so I won't have any problems.

Honestly I can't wait to see your progress, looking forward to seeing how someone else tackles the whole thing.

Thanks! Yeah, its going to be rough, but well worth it I feel. I spent this year getting healthier. Now I'll spend the next year building myself. And of course, the costume.

good luck with the training and the costume making. I'm also starting to do some weight training, but no costume building, hahaha
