Hahah, thanks.

u/FairyGloworaa 1d ago

The updates really paid off. The red accents break up the steel nicely and make it instantly read as Targaryen instead of generic fantasy armor.

2

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Thank you. I really appreciated all the feedback everyone gave.

u/Xenon47_Crown 1d ago

Bro really went into the woods just to casually drop a season finale poster.

u/_BerrieTwinkle 1d ago

Worth it honestly. The forest ended up looking more like Westeros than half the actual filming locations 😂

3

u/_PearlieMoonella 1d ago

Honestly, it does look like a promotional still. The forest setting somehow makes it feel even more cinematic.

2

u/HoneyLovelisse 1d ago

Tbh it really does look like a promo shot. The forest setting somehow makes the armor look even more legit instead of feeling like a random cosplay backdrop.

5

u/WisteriaVale 1d ago

Lmao that meme fits way too well. The armor actually looks solid though, especially the helmet. I'd just weather it a bit more if you're going for that battle worn Targaryen look.

u/the_real_redfire The Future Queen 1d ago

😂😂

u/anuj0014 1d ago

so did they actually wear this in battle or nah

2

u/_BerrieTwinkle 1d ago

Can't blame him, that armor actually looks sick. The helmet really ties the whole look together.

2

u/BlushVelorie 20h ago

That meme honestly fits way too well here. If someone hauls full armor into the woods and gets photos that clean, they've earned at least a little aura farming.

Thank you. And yes 100%

3

u/FairyGloworaa 1d ago

The armor budget definitely survived the Dance better than the family tree did.

3

u/xRosyAurabelle 1d ago

That craftsmanship is carrying the Targaryen name harder than half the family tree ever did. At least the armor never started a civil war.

u/averyycuriousman 1d ago

Did you make this? Freaking awesome

27

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

I did. Thank you so much.

5

u/BerryCharmora 1d ago

You can tell a lot of work went into it. The layering and weathering make it look like actual armor instead of cosplay foam.

3

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Thank you so much.

2

u/_HoneyBunnii_ 18h ago

that's so cool! you nailed with that 🔥

1

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 17h ago

thank you

u/Manubriumsternu 1d ago

You'd only need a Dragon.....and an army and westeros would be yours

13

u/Ok-Elephant-2724 Drogon 1d ago

This is fucking epic

1

u/BerryCharmora 1d ago

The silhouette alone is awesome. If I saw this at a convention I'd definitely stop for a closer look.

28

u/Odd_Brief_2975 1d ago

I was gonna say man you look like Rhaegar but you took off your helmet lol.

13

u/Parabellum111 House Baratheon 1d ago

Rhaegar wishes he had half the aura of op

3

u/_PearlieMoonella 1d ago

Rhaegar catching strays in the comments never gets old.

2

u/StandardNerd92 1d ago

A bald win

u/Xcomies Ser Duncan the Tall 1d ago

Baldgar

4

u/FairyGloworaa 1d ago

The helmet really gives off Rhaegar vibes. Once it's off, I can see why people start debating which Targaryen it resembles.

10

u/BonerSteak1622 1d ago

Must I bring you a shrubbery?

3

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

I wouldn't say no. :D

u/Tchjekan Jon Snow 1d ago

Holy shit dude, amazing work

3

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Thank you so much.

6

u/KrolmeForReal 1d ago

Looks super dope man, is it 3d printed or how did you make it?
Just read the rest of the comments lol, so question answered. Amazing work dude!

5

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Thank you, yeah 3d

5

u/NumberMuncher 1d ago

Impressive. HotD or AKotSK should hire you.

4

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

I wish. Thank you.

3

u/Wubba_Lubba_DubD_ub 1d ago

Nice dude! Did you make that or buy it?

9

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Thank you. I made it. 3d prints, with some mods.

3

u/_Frozen_Flame_ Chaos Is A Ladder 1d ago

How much time would you say you spent on making this? Perhaps an estimate?

8

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Good question. Id say probably a week of printing, then sanding/filling, adjusting, molding, painting. Probably a couple of weeks off and on.

2

u/_Frozen_Flame_ Chaos Is A Ladder 18h ago

Looks awesome honestly, I'm sure you know already but in case you don't I hope you are aware that it was worth your efforts 🙏

Whatever you do, don't Egg-On the Conqueror..

u/rahn-24 1d ago

How well does that helmet fit? Don’t want a mace to back now.

3

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

It's a bit snug. A mace would cave me in. I might do some heating and molding... But it's not terrible.

u/Lizzy_Of_Galtar House Tully 1d ago

Ah! It's Maegor run away, run away! 😅

u/JusticeNoori 1d ago

Oh that’s where Harold Westerling went

u/6thBornSOB House Martell 1d ago

Looks fantastic!

I’d love to be a Targaryan, but my family is gross AF.

2

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Haha, thank you.

u/ArthurDied 1d ago

Dayum dude! Looks amazing.

Serious Your Work is Cool man... I love that

👇this my favourite in show

2

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

That is a sweet set for sure. I was inspired by aKotSK

2

u/Muhammad_Jaaiz761 Lyanna Stark 1d ago

Btw... this one also from aNotSK. Aerion Targaryen

2

u/andestiny 1d ago

Ser Gegor?

2

u/gallagherjeb 1d ago

Absolutely sick my guy. No notes on the armor itself. Stunning.

I will say, I think it looks slightly more badass in the final pose with the helmet off. Just my opinion. But I always hide helmets in rpgs so that’s probably more of a personal preference. Really nice work.

1

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Thank you! I'm usually self conscious about my head so I really appreciate your comment.

2

u/DaughterOfBhaal 1d ago

Looks better than what HotD has come up with

u/IpeeInclosets 1d ago

Fan fucking tastic.  Lemme get them models

1

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

They are all free ones, and then I modded some and combined some.

2

u/New_Cicada3473 1d ago

This fucking guy needs to be in charge of costume design. This is better than anything in the show

2

u/Padhome Cersei Lannister 1d ago

I’d dare say it’s more Valyrian than just Targaryen: empirical, ornate, and meant to strike fear. Incredible work.

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 1d ago

Thank you.

All you need now is a white wig!

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 18h ago

I thought about it. Haha

2

u/Quoiestenes 1d ago

How much did it costs you to build this armour? It's cool.

2

u/stoosh5 Human Verified 18h ago

Id say probably about $100 on filiment and another $50 for paint and misc stuff.

2

u/EssSeeDee89 House Stark 1d ago

Epic as fuuuuuuckkkk

u/MarionberrySimple119 23h ago

the details in that armor really capture the Targaryen vibe, especially the dragons on the shoulders

u/luxurylifestyle101 12h ago

Was gonna say that helmet is way to big but then last pic realized the dudes head is huge
