I had some questions about how I did the lights in the Tokugawa helm. You can apply this to other effects. By layering of recycled packing foam to diffuse the light, then a bit of clear raft to look crisp, then I use felt to isolate the light & hide gaps.

Here are the lights I used for the Tokugawa Helm. I use a similar white strand in the Doom Slayer. You can use these for lots of props.

I find them at the Dollar Store around Halloween and Christmas in their respective holiday colors. Some carry EL wire!

GI Joe fans?

Table stills of Metal Gear - Gray Fox Helm

Model found on Thingiverse.com.

3D printed, spray painted, vinyl decals by me, and powered by two AA batteries. The eyes are for display and too heavy a mesh for cons. They can be swapped for cloth mesh.
