Costume Information

Description
Ok, Break is one of my two number one favourite characters of all time (not to mention that Pandora Hearts is one of my favourite series). So I’ve pretty much decided to do more than one version of his clothes (if I know myself right I’ll probably do all of this clothing’s that he is seen with throughout the series). This time it’ll be the version that I refer to as “hatter” (I believe that’s what most use to refer to these clothes). I’m a total freak when it comes to hats, so I just have to do this one next. Best excuse ever to wear a awesome hat again. Hat, hat, hat, hat… Oh, and by the way, I’m too lazy (no rather that I don’t have enough money to afford right now) to make separate trousers and shirt for this cosplay and my cosplay as Grell, and due to that they’re quite similar they’ll share it. I'm aiming to have this done at the latest in late April or early May.

Mad Hatter (Posted 8th February 2013)

The first little thing for this cosplay (who isn’t exactly a “real” part of it) is now all done. I decided to make a tiny Mad Hatter. ...Emily forced me to make him, lol.

The fabric on his hat, cloak, and eye are made with a cotton fabric (I’ve no idea what it’s called though), some old felt for the thorns on the hat and the purple fabric for his roses were made using crushed velvet.
A whole lot of wire was used up to make a base for the hat itself and two pieces within the collar. Then some good old clay to sculpture the skull, some beads for the “spikes” on each side of the eye (I had planned to sculpture those as well, but I couldn’t come up with a good way to attach them, so I decided to use some old beads instead), and a pendant for his mirror. At last some purple pieces of feathers as well as I “borrowed” a pin for it all. I used my calligraphy pen to write his little “note” on the hat and my promarkers to paint the two cards and the “Love and peace”-card on a few pieces of my favourite paper that I always use for sketches and drawings; everything else were painted with acrylics.

Sorry about the crappy quality of the photos... I'll get some with better quality asap.
