Loki Headgear from Marvel's Loki Series

Ever since the release of Marvel's Loki series, I have developed an interest in being able to cosplay Loki from the series because I have been a superhero fan since childhood and have always wanted to cosplay a hero from a movie/series.

Initially planned to make it out of cardboard. Chose CAD over it because of my extensive experience and interest in it. Planning to wear it to Comic Con in a Loki Variant costume, which will happen by the end of November in India.

Used a low poly model of a head for reference from TurboSquid to start designing the headgear. Scaled dimensions to match my own head.

I used an image of the helmet from Amazon for reference. I used Mirror Modifier to start work, so only need to make one side of the helmet. I started making it by a series of extruding, scaling, and placing vertices on the rough boundary of the helmet. Follow it by using Solidify Modifier to add thickness to the model. Now I use the model head to transform the helmet from a 2D plane into the third dimension. And continue to refine the mesh by subdividing continuously and working on the highest viewport settings.

The horns were designed by using Cylinders and using the Subdivision Subsurface Modifier for roundness, and merging all the points on one end to give it a conical finish.

Include a hook on the location just above the ear to be able to pass a velcro strap in order to make it wearable. The spot marked with a red line in the photo on the side highlights the probable location and type of the hook.
