Ok so I'm generally new to cosplay and sewing for that matter, but I'm trying to tackle a really big project and do saber from fate stay night. Scary I know. Anyways I was wondering if anyone had tips on sewing and patterns i could use for her dress. And I also wanted to do excalibur and all of her armor. so if anyone was familiar with making props like that that would be awesome too. Thanks ACP crew!! Help a sister out please!

Are you looking to commission Excalibur or make it yourself?

I was actually wondering if anyone had made it before and could tell me a good way to go about it. I want to make everything myself because i'm such a fan of the character.

I definitely recommend using this image: http://www.propsops.com/weapons/etc/excalibur/ex003.jpg

and designing a template based on it.

That's the method I used for making Archer's swords.

Great foam armor tutorial. Also using fiberglass, casting resin is a good idea as well :D
