Wow, I'm guessing this is Katniss's Mockingjay combat uniform? Really good cosplay!!

Yes, it's her armor from Mockingjay. Too cool of a concept for me not to try!!
Thank you very much!! It was a lot of fun to wear!!

THAT'S PROFESSIONAL. LOL. It's legit. XD I'm trying to be Katniss for the premiere of the movie but I don't want to buy a REAL bow because I'm going to get kicked out of the theaters. :/

You can get pretty good bows (for props) fairly cheap at ren faires. I once saw some bows that had been used as props in LOTR on sale for 10 USD each. Unfortunately, I had forgotten my wallet at home!!

As long as you don't have arrows you should be okay. I dressed up as suzan for the Narnia movies. Bows are really expensive though...I have mine because I actually do archery, I don't think I'd buy one for just a costume.
I'm sure there is something out there on how to make one!!

Very, very nice job on the costume!!!!!!!!!!! You can really tell the time and effort put into this, and it's a very unique rendition! I'm going to cosplay as Katniss from the first books, but this is so much more intricate lol! X'DD
Keep up the great work, you're an amazing cosplayer!

wow! i love it! sleeves might b a bit shorter in the book, but tht's just getting knit-picky (bad habit). love it ^_^

no! not at all! I love constructive comments!
It says in the books that her sleeves stop at the elbow and flared with a white under belly (which didn't photograph sadly...)
But I agree, the sleeve length that just feels odd...

evanesce24 In reply to luciduskeeper [2011-08-23 03:03:07 +0000 UTC]

oh, wait, yeah i see the sleeves are shorter here, i think i was seeing the elbow pads. but, so, i was thinking how they don't cover her scar form johanna.

luciduskeeper In reply to evanesce24 [2011-08-23 03:06:43 +0000 UTC]

ya...I didn't originally plan to have pads but my friends that actually see combat thought they were need, and who am I to argue with that logic? *shrug*
The white bandage covers the scar (both in the book and in my pictures)
oddly it also cover up a real scar I have!
