CJ Prop Studio My name is Joshua Marchese and I'm a cosplayer/foamsmith. I started making props back in the summer of 2013.
(4)

I've done my research about props, materials and the process since 2009. When I first started, I only made helmets because it was easy and I can experiment with different material. Now that I have experience for making and creating props and armor, I'm open for commissions to satisfy people's costume/cosplay needs. If you have any questions or ideas, you can contact me through gmail or messenger and have yourself a good day.

Back in 2018, after I built my first armor cosplay a year prior, I decided to go about another suit. I fell in love with this character called "Civil Warrior" from Marvel's Contest of Champions mobile game. I started making him, learned new techniques, and posted my progress on Facebook groups and such. After I finished the first version of the suit, I knew I could do better. So, instead of throwing it away, I raffled it off at at the booth we had at the time. The lucky raffle winner was the one and only and that was also the same con and year we've met.

So after I raffled the first version, I got my very first commission from to make him a civil warrior suit. He requested for it to have lights and have a darker color scheme. I was happy and lucky to have him as a client because he goes to hospitals dressed as Captain American to cheer up the people and gives them hope. Safe to say, it's nice to know that my work puts a smile on people's faces. Anyway, making these suits after my very first one was very ambitious for me, especially at the time

In 2018, after joining , some of us decided to attend a con called Heroes and Villains fan fest. We decided to go as xmen characters and do a little group cosplay. At the time, I didn't have nor never made an xmen cosplay before, and there wasn't much time to make anything huge. I said to the crew, "Give me a few days," at the time deadpool 2 released earlier that year. So I decided to make a juggernaut cosplay from deadpool 2.

It's an xmen character but just a different version. Made the helmet from start to finish in 6 hours same day, the fastest helmet build I've ever done. I ordered a coverall hazmat suit from Amazon, peeled the sticker off, and painted it yellow with the silver lines and DMC on the leg. It was a simple cosplay, but I knew with my size it'll work very well. After I made mine, a wave of other makers started making their own versions. I don't really care, but it's cool to know that I'm the first cosplayer to cosplay the deadpool 2 juggernaut. I still have the helmet, but the suit got destroyed. Eventually, I'll recreate him, but this time, I'll add some armor and more details. Lastly, as for every other build, I learned new techniques that I still use today. Learned how to make fake welds using hot glue, first time doing weathering and pattern making. Another part of my stepping stone to where I am and do today

I never really posted much of my savitar cosplay, but better late than never lol. So back in October at I debuted savitar for the first time. This suit has been in the works for 6 years, mainly to figure out what and how to build him. I started the build back in December of 2022, but unfortunately, I had to put it on pause due to commissions rolling in. Fast forwarding to September 13th 2023, I finished my last commission, which also meant I can finally put all my attention to savitar and continue the build. The only thing was I had about 3 weeks to finish this suit, and I'm basically starting from the beginning.

I crunched hard, blood, sweat, and tears went into this build, but I'm happy to say I was able to finish it before Saturday of nycc. This suit had the largest amount of leds that I've ever installed into a suit, I reprinted the helmet last minute and took it off the printer for post processing 3 days before nycc started, I finished painting the suit a week before the con, and did the debut/cos-test at nycc. This suit in total took a month to make from scratch, the "fastest" I ever did for making a high detailed suit, and I'm happy everyone enjoyed him at nycc. Soon/eventually, I'll be upgrading him to make him look better and more accurate to the show. Thank you for seeing my journey with the making of savitar ⚡️

The original suit from the show was made by Legacy Effects, I used references from their bts photos for the making of my savitar suit to get it as accurate as I can

Hey everyone, I don't really do many mashups, but here's one for you. Here is an upgraded daisy inspired Bo-Katan helmet, I call it Bo-Kadaisy. The helmet/cosplay idea was an original concept created by . This was a quick build, and it took about 5 days to make (not including print time). Fully 3d printed, has 2 blower fans and a chrome green visor. Happy how this came out!!
