Be the Main Man With This Lobo Closet Cosplay
Wanna rock the Lobo look? If you’ve got long dark hair and a badass attitude, you’re halfway there. The rest you might have in your closet.
What started out as a satire of characters like the Punisher has evolved into a shit-talking outer space biker. That’s right, kids, it’s time for the Main Man! So you wanna dress up like the reckless Czarnian bounty hunter? Put on the heavy metal music. It’s time to fraggin’ go.
This outfit requires some long, black hair and a pair of black jeans. Or leather pants if you’re brave.
Lobo’s Leather Vest
Definitely the main piece of the Main Man’s look, the leather vest is everything. I’d recommend lots of zippers, because who doesn’t love a good pocket?
And you’ll need to add studs. Lots and lots of studs. 200 pieces of various sizes should do it (but no judgment if you want more).
The Main Man’s Leg Armor
I love these kneepads for their adjustability, plus all the slotting makes it easy to decorate (you know, chains and studs – Lobo aesthetic!) With some clever glue and paint fun, you can add some very grieved-looking foam skulls.
Kick Ass with Lobo’s Boots
Let’s be honest, if you’re looking to cosplay Lobo, you probably already own a pair of combat boots. But if you’ve worn down the sole on yours, these will last you for a few months.
Lobo Closet Cosplay: The Gloves
Of course, you’ve got to keep your knuckles protected in your everyday intergalactic bar brawl. Or when you’re revving your space motorcycle.
Lobo’s Face
This is a Lobo closet cosplay, so you can go in at varying degrees when it comes to makeup, props, and other special effects. If you’re feeling like putting on the full face, we support you.
If a full face of makeup sounds too labor intensive (or sweaty), a lot of Lobo’s look can be captured with some clever eye makeup. These happen to come in the three colors you’ll need for a perfect Lobo look.
Lobo Accessories: The Belts
Why yes! You need at least two! Studded and mean-looking, I’m quite partial to the bullet belt.
Lobo Accessories & Jewelry
No Lobo closet cosplay would be complete without a whole shitload of chains. A spool of chains for general decor is definitely encouraged, and you can pair it with a less ostentatious (and less stabby) version of Lobo’s chained hook.
And of course, the barbed wire and chain necklace will really help set the tone.
Don’t Forget the Cigars
I don’t think I need to justify this one – get yourself a treat, you did good.
Oh hey! BoLS might make a little dolla-dolla if you decide to buy these items. We need that money to pay our intergalactic bar tab. It is very large, and we’d rather not go to space-jail.
