Description
Originally I wasn't planning on submitting any Cosplay photos, just artwork. Though I figure what the heck. It's art to me & it is my stronghold.Almost everything on this costume was hand made. The belt medallions, suspender emblems, black belt embelishments, cross closure, & sword skull embelishment, were all hand sculpted from scratch, then cast in resin & silver leafed. The studs were individually cut from sheet steel, as were the legging strap peices, though those were polished for a chrome finish. The wig was styled by myself as well & all the leather work was from scratch including the belly belts.

(Yes the wig is a bit crooked, it's not that poofy)

I finally get to see an awesome cosplay that is on no level weird or awkward (I'm not being sarcastic trust me!) I love this! The effort that you put into this is amazing and it made such a badass outcome that I can't help but be a little jealous. When was this?

holy bananas! At first I thought this /was/ paine! like a game poster or something... *shock* so I must ask, what material are the pants made from? Leather? Faux Leather? Really badass silk?

Nice and amazingly accurate. Hair seems a bit bigger than it should be, but that's okay. It's good work! ^^

I have to ask- do you have any tutorials up on how you made the sword and such? Im going to be cosplaying as Paine with a group of FF peoplez but... =_= Im a perfectionist. I hate half-assing costumes.

obsidian-seas [2009-05-25 23:45:50 +0000 UTC]
ok. first off this is AMAZING! Everything is just so perfect. and, I was wondering what kind of wig you used to create Paine's hair. A straight grey wig that fell down or something more in a "punk/tina" style? because I just cosplayed psychiccer Paine, and that was the only part that I couldnt figure out quite right...
