DEM Boots (Posted 29th January 2013) After looking around for some pumps or low profile boots I desided in the end to make a set out of wet suit boots and a old pair of leather shoes I bought from a charity shop for a whopping 3 pound then painted around the bottom for a overall look. there not spot on but Beggars cant be choosers I've found that every ezio cosplayer struggles wit his shoes but with these and the covers they look pretty good. |
|
New Hidden blade and hookblade design (Posted 27th January 2013) As my old hidden blades kinda fell apart I desided to remake them but this time without the spring loaded mech these ones are gravity fed but with a twist I added magnets to the rear so they will lock back and stay back also added a locking mech to the front so the blade with stay in place all moves smooth so you dont have to over thrust your arm to get the blade out or back in. these blades are alot smaller than the last ones and I am able to move alot more freely than before. Next up ....Rebuilding the shoulder armour and modifying the hood |
|
New Update (Posted 19th January 2013) right since our last encounter i was tinkering with a few things etc etc now ive actually had time to sort things out i have recently remade the hidden blades....AGAIN....and also started to try to papermache some new shoulder armour as last time it was like a frizbee also done some modifcations to the hood and the top making the lower part and the top as one (so its knida like a dress now) which makes it easyer to put on and finaly i have made more of the red sash as it was too short last time.... pictures to follow once i find my camera |
|
New update (Posted 16th November 2012) since kita when i wore this ive been tinkering with some new bits the shoder armour now fits to the shoulder and i have made it abit thicker also the forearm part as been redone next up i will be remakin the hidden blade and hook blade also going to be making the vlad the impalers sword from the dlc unlock |
|
Update and Tah Dah (Posted 7th April 2012) done some more progress to the top embroided all the strips for the front and back and attached them by hand then added more detail to the front (not shown in picture) also added the details to the back(strips shown at bottom of pic)finished the hood and finished the back of the hood.... I can finaly say after 3 months of building stabbing myself and cursing the outfit that it is complete but i wont be posting finished pictures untill kitacon as a suprise so you will all have to wait :P |
|
Embroidery Embroidery And More Embroidery (Posted 30th March 2012) Started work on the embroidery at last and in total I have done over 30 hours so far its my first time doing this its been a long long process but I've finished the lower part of his outfit his main logo on the top and one side of the hood next up...other side of the hood followed by the chest and arms |
|
Hidden Blade with gauntlet (Posted 16th March 2012) Finaly finished the hidden blade/hidden gun combo and attached it to the gauntlet next up the other arm with hook blade |
|
Outfit progress (Posted 16th March 2012) Started the fabric part of the outfit now i started by cutting the shapes out using the templates i made then stiched then all together followed buy starting to embroid the parts this is the smallest and by far the easyist of the whole embroidery...took me 10 hours to do this next up.....you guessed it more embroidary |
|
Belt Complete (Posted 3rd March 2012) finaly got around to finishing the belt made the throwing knifes by drawing a basic shape on a bit of wood then cutting them out sanding painting and finishing with red tape then made the holders by drawing arounf one of the knifes and cutting the seperate shapes and stiching together then stiching them in a set of 4 either side followed by attaching the clay made buckle and other part ( not quite sure what it is ) and attached a small belt so it can stay in place because of the angle |
|
Leg Guards (Posted 3rd March 2012) Started the leg guards by cutting a template around the leg then making the straps and making sure that they all fit nice and neat then went onto making templates for the details i added abit extra to the front to rase it up then went onto embroiding the bottom. ..next up staining the leather |
|
Armour update (Posted 27th February 2012) moved onto the the main armour starting with the shoulder part and moving down to the gauntlets then the belt and the leg guards need to finish embroiding the leg parts then i can stain the leather. moving onto the belt next updates will follow |
|
Sword progress (Posted 26th February 2012) Wanted to make the sword of altiar but I saw this pirate sword and liked the handle so I modifyed the handle and made a blade out of wood stuck it all together and painted next up the throwing knifes |
|
Forearm armour (Posted 28th January 2012) Started this a while back and desided to start layering it instead of embroiding this time as you can see i started with the base then moved to the details followed by sewing more details in by hand next up staining the leather |
|
Starting the armour (Posted 28th January 2012) Started making the armour he has on his shoulder I've had to double up the leather to make it think then lined it with pleather ready for adding the details later on tomorrow next up detailing and staining |
|
Belt And Pouches (Posted 28th January 2012) Made from leather and lined with pleather the pouches stiched by hand and then stiched onto the belt also made a loop for the sword to stay tight to the body Next up adding the bucklesand other little bits...also removing the smaller pouch and adding a bigger leather one |
|
Hidden And Hook Blade (Posted 28th January 2012) Heres the finished blades I've made a mech that will retract the blades at a flick of the wrist also the hidden gun fires shortened nerf darts for that stealthy nerf kill for more details on the mech...well i caint tell you that id have to kill you |
