Finishing Aela´s costume

Just a few days left till the competition!

I´ve spent a lot of time just figuring out how to attach those pauldrons to her dress. Because in normal life this just couldn´t work at all :D

I decided to make my bracers out of more comfortable material than worbla is. Worbla is so rough that my forearm always hurts and bracer doesn´t stay in its place. This one is made of 0,5 mm craft foam, covered with fake leather (the same I used for my dress). But I´m satisfied with the result.

I also ordered something special .. 

.. my personal dagger, or small sword, don´t really know what it´s called like. It´s used, has a few glitches and originally purposed for LARPing.

Ready for photoshoot :)

I finished the belt yesterday. Months ago I did a pattern for the belt from worbla, but I decided to re-make it. I always try to make it as comfortable as possible and with worbla belt I probably wouldn´t be able to bend and move without moving it into it´s right place afterwards. This is fully made of craft foam, no gesso but glue with acrylics and acrylics lacker on top.

It´s made from two parts and holds in place thnaks to velcro :)

I can´t wait to shoot this costume! Tommorow I have a meeting with my photograper in awesome place .. stay tuned!
