| I've never actually seen anyone really have a go at a full-all-out Thief cosplay before so I thought I'd give it a shot. I've became a real sucker for this series again recently and would love to try and do it some justice. I'm going to try my best to do some glowing or lighted parts in the costume, that being the Mechanical Eye that Garrett has (if you've played these games, you'll know what I'm on about!) and the selection of moss, fire and water arrows. My dad might be helping me build some arrows, as he used to himself in his teens when he was serious about archery. I'll also get some cool info from him about bracers and archery gloves. I need to also purchase a long bow for this, relatively cheaply. | |

New Project in the works! (Posted 17th November 2010) After quite a few months break and missing London Expo this October around, its about time I got back into seeing what characters ,i can cosplay as next year. This one I'm going to love as I adore the games and would like to see it done. First I need to make some rough sketches this week of materials and parts I will need and look into good places I can buy archery supplies. |
