She's finally finished! 3 years of blood, sweat, and toil have finally come to an end!
Not the best pic for details, but you can see the overall costume pretty well. She carries a staff with a cross on it, but it was awkward to include in the pic.
Almost the entire costume was sewn by hand. The scrollwork is black pleather that I spray painted gold and then glued onto the fabric. All the scrollwork is outlined with gold bugle beads because...well...I wanted it to sparkle. The cloak is lined with an embroidered organza lace fabric. All the arrows are made of cardboard.
