Description

My first cosplay! Debuted at A-Kon 20.

IF YOU TOOK A PHOTO OF ME, PLEASE PM ME!!! I'd love to see the pictures!

------
Wig - cosworx.com (Nicole, 1B)
Pony tail things were made with craft foam and then painted to give the appearance of metal. They're secured to the wig with bobby pins.

Aiselne Drossel - hula hoop, card board, plenty of duct tape, craft foam, and Rigid Wrap (a plaster coated fabric available at Michael's). I'm rewrapping parts of the prop, particularly the blades, to reinforce them. Then I'll carve in blood grooves, and paint it.

Boots - bought online, belts removed and recycled for the "ankle" belt; vinyl stripping used for the bigger belt; buckle made from Sculpy clay and painted. Boot caps made from upholstery vinyl and scraps from the red jump suit.

Jumpsuit - fabric purchased from Hancock Fabrics; pin striping is ribbon sewn onto the fabric; jump rings are actually drapery hardware that was painted with many coats of "venetian gold" paint (was a pain in my bum to paint, too).

Feathers - purchased from various online stores in mint. I'm using three different types of feather to give the costume a bit of variety

Gloves - gauntlets were made with layered craft foam; embellishments were hand painted with fabric paint; forms were painted to give it a metal look, and then glued onto gloves bought at Target. Metal studs are actually scrapbooking brads.
