Description

I love the character since I played Skies of Arcadia Legends, back in 2003. The appropiate combination of time, money, skill and willpower showed itself four years later.

Dress, boots and glove use the same fabric. The boots are normal, synthetic leather boots, covered with yellow fabric (making it longer, knee pads and all, was very hard).

The wig was modeled with wires inside the braids, forming something like a tiara, supporting them.

The boomerang was made at home, with not-too-complex materials, like EPS, cold china, rigid plastic, acrylic paint and green varnish, among others. Its two parts can be detached by just cutting the strings.

This costume was pretty expensive, but that's because I haven't planned my expenses properly. Also, I've always played on the safe side, buying more than was really going to be used (and that's GOOD, believe me). Since I started buying things for this costume months before I actually did something, the costs were well distributed.
