I have crossed oceans of time...

Not goofy--it's amazing! Excited about this!!

This is so incredible! You're amazing!

The love story between Vlad and Mini in this film still brings me to tears- the part where they are dancing together, him in that amazing purple suit, his enduring love and their finale- I'm so happy that you too are a fan of the Oldman. The only one that moved me more was his portrayal of Sid Vicious- that final scene where he's getting into the taxi and my heart just *knows* what's going to happen...

Again, is there nothing that you can't do? I'm not sure who the character is but I'm sure it will be awesome, your talent is only exceeded by your wonderful imagination and passion for your craft and you never fail to deliver a winning performance! Major thumbs up good sir! :D

I cant wait!! Also this is beautiful

It looks magnificent, and some of us would LOVE a lil’ bonus video explaining how you made it. 🙂

Jim, I love you in a completely platonic way and I'm not afraid to say it. Your cosplay is divine and I like the cut of your jib. Thank you, (and your spouse, and the kitties as well as the rest of your family) for encouraging/supporting you so that you're able to share your creative endeavors with all of us.

Oh holy fuck, my favorite movie probably ever. You're just really good at acting out my crushes, huh?

The blood is the life... and it shall be mine....

Holy Hole in a Doughnut, Batman!

Hard agree. :) Jim has pulled off stuff that I would have rolled my eyes at if performed by a lesser actor -- much less this creative feat! His ability to capture the audience's attention, and to immerse it fully into the world he creates on camera, is spellbinding.

Jim, I'm gonna say that, while I adore your Vlad, I never did feel the need to go back and watch the source material. Like, *at all*. ^^;;; Probably because I was never really into vampires to begin with: I was just thunderstruck by the way that you acted yours. As a result, I dunno anything about this costume except that it's armor (#1), and, (#2), I sure as hell couldn't make it. Now, your feelings are valid. Artists tend to be their own worst critics, and are usually so close to the work that every tiny bit of improvement that can be thought of after the fact, they kick themselves over. Yet, everybody here (most of whom I presume HAVE actually seen the movie and are fans of it -- many of whom are likely hardcore fans of vampires, too) are thrilled as anything! And as for me? I don't know how the hell you do all this incredible stuff. I just know that I'm super looking forward to seeing what you've done with it! n_n <3

This is amazing!!!!

fucking amazing work ..hardly goofy

It's a perfect work of art!!!

The armor is beautiful! Red and black all the way!... I spy with my little eye Timber's fur coat ;D

That is great! I use sintra for my armor, but I prefer plated. You should do an arts and crafts video sometime.

I'm never going to stop screaming

I think that you misspelled that word, my dear Jim. It's spelled glorious, not goofy. 💐💐💐 Seriously loving that sword as well... Whom shall thy vanquish, Red Knight? 💗💗💗 Exceptionally extremely well done. 👏👏👏

Good grief, Jim. That's amazing!

Omg! Yes! 😍

Jill

Splendid craftsmanship! And, knowing you, if used in a video, the end result will be anything but "goofy."

Even if I had the imagination to think these things up I couldn't translate them into actual costume. Way to be connected to your ever evolving craft.

oh but this is fantastic! ❤

Holy shit Jim!! Is there anything you’re not good at???? It looks incredible and I can’t wait for Halloween to see it! ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️

Incredible. When do you have time for this....can't wait to see this in action 😲

You know what, goofy or not, that is 100% better than anything I can do. You have my admiration. Also I love the colour *chef's kiss*

Ahhhhh wow! It’s brilliant ✨ the detail, the time and effort that must’ve gone into it... so amazing! Great job Jim ☺️

It doesn't look goofy at all- the detail is amazing!

I can't imagine, well done Jim, holy fack! Wow...! It's freaking beautiful. ♥️ By the way "Goofy"? Seriously? I mean you're right Jim, you need to take some arts and crafts lessons 'cause this is just magestically, breathtakingly and beautifully awful! 🙄 Jim...! I wish I could have your skills, this is freaking rocking wicked! if there's a costume contest where you live, I tell ya, you should definitely participate, holy cheetos! 😍✨

Goofy?! Looks great!
