Need help with making a roller for my callie cosplay

tRaNz_Bi_SoDaPoP 8/6/2023 09:19 am 298

could I get some suggestions on how to make the roller for my callie cosplay? I don’t think they sell paint rollers that are large enough to look like a roller from splatoon, and the only other way I could think of making it would be out of pvc pipes and a pool noodle so I could use some help

I went to my local dollar tree to buy pool noodles and a broomstick handle for my charger prop, maybe you could use the same?

@Miya: yes! This! Pool noodles sound good

I’ve been thinking about this for awhile since I’m also probably going to do a callie cosplay, and you could maybe use those big things that hold wrapping paper for the handle? there’s also some really good videos on youtube making splatoon props that might be helpful.

I think pvc pipe and pool noddles would be an amazing idea, but depending on where you get them pvc can be expensive (Atleast it is where I live) but they also have paint roller replacement heads and I think if you glued them together(might be cheaper because they usually are in packs of multiple) it would work and then you could find an actually paint roller handle that would be big enough to work

you could maybe use paper towel rolls and glue two of them together or something? Then paint them? shrug

sorry if this doesn’t help
