Okay, so I'm actually planning on doing a Crusader myself next year and I can go into some of what I plan on using. Also keep in mind that while I have done armor before, I am by no means an expert on it, I just know what my preferences are and how I plan on tackling some of the hurdles.
So lets tackle the elephant first, The Armor:
"Armored by faith, driven by duty, bound to kill the enemies of the Zakarum."
Okay, onto a bit easier subject, The Cloth and Leather:
"My faith is rewarded."
My plan for my eternal Phalanx, and this can be debated, The Shield:
"The crusade marches on!"
Last but not least, everyone favorite, The Weapon:
"Do not hesitate to strike down your enemies. Death is their salvation from evil."
That's really all I got. Only other thing I could suggest is to take your time and start early. Some of my friends, and even me sometimes, don't start early and will run around the week before/week of freaking out because we're not done, so don't be like us. Be smart. Oh, speaking of being smart, make sure you use PPE. If you don't know if you need it ask about it. You don't want to be working with something like resin without a mask and get breathing issues in 15 years because you didn't protect yourself. And what ever you do, don't forget:
"Kneel before Zakarum!"
It all depends on what type of builder/crafter you want to get into. Buying all the "machines" and tools for someone that would be a foamsmith but you're really a needlework kind of person makes it a potential waste of money and time (and vice versa).
IF you want to get into an overall crafting/building in general, here are the tools and materials I've gathered for my workshop:
I'm gonna put the word **Optional** for the items that are not completely necessary for first time builders, but definitely worth while down the road.
Here are some helpful options for your search for EVA foam. Hopefully one of the stores I list here will be some-what local for you. Home Depot, Lowes, 5 Below, BJ's, Costco, Walmart, & Harbor Freight all carry the EVA (floor mat) foam. I have personally purchased and used foam from all of these locations.
Helpful links from the masters: Evil Ted Smith , Punished Props , Odin Makes , KamuiCosplay.
Hope this helps.

Hi! I'm so flattered that you like my cosplay and want to do Belle for a local con! Hopefully, some of my experiences can help.
Bow: The bow was actually pretty simple. I did use the same fabric of the dress. I backed it with some light weight interfacing to make it more stiff. There are probably a lot of tutorials on how to do basic bows online ( search sailor moon bows if your having trouble...) But the basic concept is that you sew two squares together like a pillow case then fold then like you would if you were making a paper fan..Take another rectangle strip fo fabric ( I also put interfacing on that back of that and just folded in the edges so it looked nice. ) and wrap it around the middle. I sewed mine and then uses a metal clip to clip it on the hair near the ponytail holder. though you could probably do the sam with bobby pins.
Wig: I did style the wig! The wig I bought was Christine at Amphigory no cutting required, If you have any experience in teasing chances are this will turn out better for you. Just make sure you have a wig head to secure to and some patience. I sectioned off the hair at the very front of the wig where the hairline is then right behind that I tried my best to tease two kind trangeler bumps on both sides of the part. after that was pretty solid I took the sectioned off front hair and lightly draped it around the teased bumps so it's looked smooth and then took the rest of that separated hair and tiwsted it down the sides. Then I gathered the two twist into a ponytail at the nape of the neck, it honestly just took a lot of finagling and even by then end it looked kinda funny when I put it on my head. I remember thinking it looked fine on the wig head then when I put it on it looked like a raccoon hat :P. But once I tried it on with the dress it just worked so don't get discouraged.
Shirt: I made the shirt but honestly if you're trying to save time that's the easiest thing to go out and buy, If you want things to help in your search I would try keywords like "3/4" and/or "bishop" sleeve "white" "Blouse" or "tunic". I just threw the dress right over mine and a bought one would work in the same manner.
Dress: I'm not sure what you have access to as far as sewing goes. but I can tell you what I used. The pattern I used was McCalls M6027 though I also considered Simplicity Amazing Fit 1537 which may be better if you don't want the extra princess seems to be as apparent. The only alterations I made on the McCalls was making the skirt longer, squaring off the neck line and switching out the normal back zipper for an invisible one.
As far as fabric, I went with something that was a bit heavier since I wanted the dress to have some structure and some light stretch. It's all kind of up to personal preference.
Other notes: I love the purse book idea! one of the things I adored about this cosplay was that the book was such an easy prop to have, and everyone was always excited to see that I had one. The basket is also amazing for carrying things while remaining in character...just throw some fabric in there to cover up your phone and wallet and your good to go.
If you do go with a fabric that's in the light blue range as opposed to the typical teal blue that most cosplayers use, be prepared to be mistaken for Dorthy from wizard of oz a few times...especailly if you have a basket :)
The underskirt is a nice touch but I don't think you need it for this cosplay, I plan to make one eventually but currently I just wear it with out.
I hope at least some of that info helps...
Feel free to pm me if you have any questions you think I could help with and either way, I would love to see pictures once your finished!
GOOD LUCK!
>whatever you end up using, have some kind of sealer!! That will create a barrier on top of your paint so it won’t rub off on everything it touches.
I see. Yeah, a friend of mine also thought that having a sealer of some sort would have been the best move. She recommended a product called setting spray (but I don't know if setting spray and sealer are the same thing). So I went on Amazon IT and picked up this product: Makeup Revolution Pro Fix Setting and Illuminating Spray for make-up.
>Since I don’t know what you have available at your local stores I’ll list the general types of face paint, some examples, and their pros and cons:
That sounds great! I'm all ears, as they say.
>Water-Based/Water-Activated - snazaroo was big among homestucks (it’s what I used), Mehron Paradise, and I think a brand called Wolfe? They’re good for mixing but since they’re water based they can run if you start sweating. Requires a lot of touch ups especially at a hot convention.
And, since in Italy weather between September and October can be quite variable and unpredictable, the water-based/water-activated face paint is very likely gonna be a no. But I'm still gonna check out those brands you mentioned, just in case they have also other types of face paint outside of this first category.
>Grease paint - Ben nye is the big name here, it’s stage makeup designed to stay on for entire shows under hot stage lights, so sweat won’t be an issue. Some people say it’s heavy though, and might not look as good close up.
I gave a look to some pictures of this grease paint on the web, and, truth be told? I must admit that it kinda doesn't look as good close up. It looks a bit as if it was slightly thick and dusty.
> Other - Pax is a DIY face paint made by mixing other paints with liquid latex. The safety is sketchy, it’s hard to remove, but will definitely stay on all day without rubbing off on anything.
I see. What makes its safety sketchy though?
> If you’re still unsure, check out some cosplay face paint guides on YouTube and see what other mettaton cosplayers used and how those turned out. And don’t forget to seal!!
Good point. But nonetheless your previous suggestions are still good.
> Edit: sorry in my excitement I missed the link to the store’s website!
Don't worry, it's no big deal.
>looking through it, I think the Kryolan glamour might be your best bet out of all those options.
Hm...It seems to be an interesting choice, especially considering Mettaton's face color is something in between white and light gray, but I'm not so convinced about the product, as the presence of glitter gets mentioned in the description a few times. (But it's also possible I might be misunderstanding the description)
>(I honestly forgot to mention creme makeup because it’s really not good for cosplay, it’s thick, doesn’t seal well, and doesn’t look all that good).
Yeah, I have been told the same. And all the cosplayers I follow over the web seem to make use of face paint or some foundation-like product.
>If it’s an option I’d highly recommend looking for some sealer - Ben nye’s sealer or mehron’s barrier spray - online.
I'll make sure to give them a look.
In multiple cosplays I have used computer case fans like this and even larger ones like this as well as USB fans.
Computer fans have the advantage of being more conducive to being hard mounted. USB Fans have the advantage of lower operating voltage (5 volts vs 12 volts for a case fan) so the batteries are easier to manage and you could even opt for a rechargable usb battery pack.
Keep your hair in mind, as either fan can get tangled up in it quick.
Actually, his second guide tells you all about paint! His guides are VERY useful, and if you're interested, he also does a weekly Q&A livestream via Google Hangouts where you can ask questions about foam fabrication (among other things, usually) and he answers them right then and there! If you follow his Facebook page, he will post who his guest for the week (if any) is, and what time he's streaming.
I hope this helps you out! (To be honest, I'm not a big fan of making armor out of foam, but I've been giving it more of a shot lately. For the foam things that I HAVE made, I've used Plasti-Dip to seal, and then whatever color of spray paints I need, followed by acrylics for details/weathering.)
Edit - Formatting & a word
I have had good luck with acrylic globes like this one from Amazon. they come in different diameters, and take paint well.

I'm pretty sure I paid closer to $40. (+shipping) Look around. Maybe it wasn't amazon?? I don't remember

Not quite the same but pretty close. Also, there are many other options via airsoft masks that aren't quite the same.
I realize that this isn't to scale, but this would be a good place to start: https://www.amazon.com/Ford-Unisex-adult-Burst-Seatbelt-Black/dp/B000RY8A5Q/ref=cts_ap_3_vtp

I'm pretty sensitive to breathing in hairspray. Could I use this mask to filter it out of the air completely?:

Relatively new to cosplay (mostly done simple stuff like Gruncle Stan before) and I wanted to dress as Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder) version. I found an alriiight looking link on amazon for an entire costume, but the amazon one has them all sewn together, and I was wondering where I could find Wonka's waistcoat and purple blazer separately.
