Description
rambling ahoyThis was my first costume involving materials that weren't just fabric and string, so it was pretty interesting! The armor and spikes are all craft foam, glue, paper mache, glue, layers of paint and some Rub'n'Buff (that stuff is so perfect for metallic finishes seriously). And did I mention glue? It did take a while, but I am pretty proud of the result.
The shirt was also a bit tricky, but I am very happy with how it looks. The only thing I'm dissatisfied with is the skirt; I'd never worked with pleather before so I just started stitching away. XD While it's not a complete disaster, it doesn't look as authentic as I wanted it to. Ah well, it's all experience.
Now I want to make her ax! Haha don't know if I'll ever do it but it'd be fun.
I'll shut up now.

I have to ask because I'm an idiot and have nuuuu idea. How the heck did you make the shirt? I've got everything else down but that part. The shirt is the hardest thing in the world. Can't find the fabric, can't find a pre-made with same kind of design, and I've never worked with dying fabrics or anything -usually not an issue as I work with leather only when it comes to fabric-like things T-T )
The shirt is amazing, best one I've seen!!

Everything looks so amazing. I'm still in awe at that shirt, it looks so authentic~ and those spaulders/shoulder armor-things look very metallic, indeed!~

Ahh, thank you! For some reason I was particularly determined to make the shirt look as accurate as possible. XD
