This has to be the most amazing and intense costume I've ever done!

It's completely out of cowhide and snakeskin leather, hand carved, tooled, and painted/sealed. The shoulders light up too. :)

It's half fan art, half figurine. The pleats and markings are via Fan Art, and the rest is from the figure exactly.

This costume seriously took about 2 weeks of construction..so a good 3 months of labor squished into two weeks.. Yeah, I wish I was joking. lol

A BIG BIG thank you to:
Ayabi [for help with this monster!], Rainyia (RainyiaCreative) [shoulders!!], Bryanna (GypsyLuxe Costumes) [beautiful beading detail], Lee Lee (Leslie Crystal) [eyebrows], Permafroste (SoCal Leatherworks) [getting me started in Leatherworking], Laura (Ifyoucandreamparties) [help with styling the 3 piece wig], and Kevin (9mmsfx) [custom sclera contacts]!

Without them, this definitely could have not been possible! Since this is my first costume ever attempted from scratch (yes, it used to be two sheets of leather) and my friends have been doing this for years, I had to go to them for help and advice, especially patterning, since I've NEVER worked with leather before and now feel like somewhat of a pro after this. :) And man, did it sure pay off. :)

And this piece of work isn't finished either! It's going to have extra details added and the shoulders are going to be more centered. All of the resin pieces will light up too. :)
