Gregarious Geek This page is made for the culture of costumes, cosplay, props, and replicas. Follow along in my detailed builds and all the adventures they have taken me!

My name is Chris Monfiletto and I am a "Gregarious Geek!"
Everywhere I go, I enjoy meeting and making new friends. I have been attending conventions since 2003 and I fabricated my first costume to compete in 2007. I enjoy constructing creative costumes, cosplays, props, and replicas. With every personal project, I try to always outdo myself by learning and applying new skills. If you happen to see me at a convention, I'd love it if you stopped and said hello!

This isn’t my normal costume and props post, but I wanted to share a computer chair I reupholstered using some techniques I learned from making costumes. I used tinfoil and tape to mask off the cushions to then trace and cut patterns into the new fabric I will be using. I had some extra short white fur fabric, that I had left over from my Chip and Dale costumes, and decided to use it, since it was just laying around. After sewing the edges and seams, I glued the fabric on with upholstery spray glue and barge cement. I am happy with the results and it will save me from buying a new chair for a few more years.

Keeping with Cosplay Tradition, I ended up pulling an all nighter trying to finish Bowser for Saturday at LACC. Glad I did though because I had a great time! Mid day I switched into my Voltron costume so I can walk the floor and geek out with friends. Luckily I did because I got see friends as well as I got to meet Allyson from Lego Masters season 4!

LA Comicon crunch time! LACC is a week away and I still have much to do! I guess I am just keeping with the cosplay tradition of finishing the costume the night before. Lol I was hoping to be able to remake Bowsers shell, but I don’t have enough time so I will be using the shell from my original Bowser costume. Everything else will be proportionate to the Bowser Movie/toy! I’m looking forward to the convention and running to friends as well as making new ones along the way! Please stop me to say hi and grab a quick pic with me if you see me on the convention floor!

Working on Bowser again. I unfortunately didn’t have enough time to finish the costume before the last convention. I am now working on making the rest of Bowsers body, proportional to the remake of Bowsers head. This is going to be the biggest costume I have ever made!

Backscene pics from the Batgirl YouTube movie production I am currently working on.
This is my first time being able to be on set and I never realized how much is involved in the production. Although there is a lot going on and times it can be hectic, I enjoy and appreciate the outcome of the hard work as well as being able to work in a creative and likeminded atmosphere.
It is exciting to see the projects that I worked on in action! I look forward to seeing the Final Cut of the film!!!

Are you a Super Mario fan and own a cat? Here is an easy project to make that cost less than $40 and less than 2hrs. You will need a pvc pipe(which ever size is to your liking), a wooden base, a end cap for your pvc pipe to drill into and use to bolt to the wooden base, one or two rolls of rope(depending on the size of pipe you use, glue sticks, and paint.
To get my cat use to the post, I put it in place of the old post and I put treats in the piranha pant. My cat Nibbler scratches the post and the treat falls out of the piranha plant to him. My cat loves his scratch post!
