Johnny Silverhand

Here's my Johnny Silverhand cosplay I completed for San Diego Comic Con 2022. 

I didn't really document the building process, so here are all the pictures I have from it:



The arm components:

All the silver parts were 3D printed
The "muscles" were 2mm eva foam
The wires and cables where actual wires and cables.








Elbow joint thingy:



Upper Arm:



The vest was made from eva foam then spray adhesive was used to stick on a nifty black fabric I found.
The I weathered it with a rotary tool with sanding drum bit. 


Used my vinyl cutter (Cricut Explore Air2) to make a painting template then airbrushed the oni mask and Samurai text


Cut a thin piece of aluminum then acid etched the text and bar code-looking thing on the dogtags.
Also created some rings from thin strips of aluminum and one cheap aluminum flashlight. 
Made a quick black leather bracelet.



Found leather pants on Esty.
Used airbrush and some oil pastels to weather them up a bit.
Belt is made of eva foam and the silver bullet-looking details were wooden dowels



Finished costume pics






A few pics from Comic Con 2022:


My friends and I kept a running tally of how many times I was called "Bucky" or "Winder Solider."
I found this guy to take a pic illustrating the difference lol. 

I mean, it kinda fits right? They can certainly help with this city I have to burn. FFFFFire!




Some pics from Comic Con 2023

Trying to emote in a Johnny-like fashion.


Not Johnny's Porsche 911, but a 911 at Comic Con none the less.


Much like my very first San Diego Comic Con where I went as Adam Jensen and there was an Eidos Montreal Deus Ex booth, this year, for some reason, there was a CD Projekt Red Cyberpunk 2077 booth.


..and then there's this chicken guy.

Found some Edgerunners there too:
