Description
The DragonRose/AKA Blue Rose outfit.Detail here: [link]
I still plan to add a few more things, some bracers or gloves, a necklace of some sort, a mask or headpiece. But this is it for now.
VegTanned leather, tooled dyed and painted. Painted suede detailing on the tassets (thigh-armor). Nickle grommets, rivets, and concho shoulder detailing. Shirt and front skirting made from an Indian Sari.
The knotwork that I designed for this can be seen in my Scraps, here:

(I still want to shorten the shoulder straps, I've re-measured and resized these things 4 times now, but they're still far too loose.)
I, sadly, did not make the tights or the boots.

Awesome. Totally kick ass, I don't think anyone with dare mess with you Good thing, wouldn't want all that work getting dirty! The shirt is beautiful too. I think sari fabric was a great choice, your designs are so ornate that a totally plain shirt would look too stark. I think I'd prefer more of the plainer blue fabric with trim for the skirting, I find the full pattern a little distracting.
I have to say, I think my favorite individual bit here is the painting on the suede tassets. I was expecting the dragons to trump roses, but nope, the shape is just so insanely perfect and elegant on those rose details.
Maybe for a necklace you could do a blue and black collar? And wear a long strand of chainmail below it?

That costume is AWSOME! The detail work is amazing, you can tell it took a long time to make.
What is it for? It is a character or your own design?

Just something I came up with. I'd been wanting a new full outfit that I'd made myself.

bloody hell that`s fantastic!
I despise people who chuck a tabbard on over jeans-and-t shirts for Live RolePlaying and call it a costume, so this is just wondeful!
