cape (Posted 2nd September 2011) This is one MASSIVE cape! It's 4 metres wide, and 3 tall (but it's folded into the hood to shorten it). I'm going to have to hand sew the front bits, since my sewing machine isn't that strong xD The back ruffles also need to be added, first tacked then run through the machine, but I don't have time to do that right now. Or the patience xD |
|
Spikes progress (Posted 9th August 2011) Some progress on the spikes~ I just need to paper mache it now (and stuff the spikes too, so they keep their shape during this process), before I cut the spikes off again and create some clips so the armour is easily transportable. And then paint it of course xD It fits quite nicely on me at the moment, but I need to work out some way to stop it from slipping back too much, so I might have to add some weights on the chest plates, or buckles (or something similar) underneath it so it straps on to the stomach plates. |
|
3D spikes (Posted 9th August 2011) The 3D version off all but one of the spikes, since it fell off earlier xD Anyway, I've just got to alter the positioning of the spikes slightly, since when they are viewed from anywhere but below or directly to the side, they all merge into one :/ So I need to make it look better from slightly higher since I'm short~ |
|
plans (Posted 30th December 2010) I have enough fabric left over from another costume to make and line the coat, so I'll be doing that tomorrow. However, I don't have any gold/yellow fabric to put around the edges ;^; bu~ut that won't stop me >3 Progress pics will ensue... |

Oh man, this will be challenging. Good luck making the armour. ^^b
looks like a challenge. Like the base spikes. Looking forward to see more progress
Absolutley brilliant! I am so happy to see someone doing this version of Jaden and also doing it justice the looks of the fantastic progress ^^
Thank you so much! ^^ I'm trying to get it as accurate as possible, since I've seen quite a few which have made the spikes too small.
