About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
The "bunnysuit" is made with leather and lined with interfaced cotton twill. I used cable ties for boning. The inner jumpsuit is stretch faux suede with pleather trim. Both patterns I drafted myself.
The other accessories except boots are leather. All the buckles are from Springfield Leather Co. and the grommets are from Ebay.
The armor is craft foam and Worbla sealed with wood glue and finished with Rub n Buff, acrylic paint, and floor wax. The shoulder armor attaches to the jumpsuit with magnets, the other armor uses leather straps.
The crossbow stock is insulation foam, also sealed with wood glue. The lathe is foam PVC and the other bits are foam PVC and Worbla.
The shuriken are wooden yoyos with glued on googly eyes painted with nail polish. The gabishi are just square wooden dowels. - Personal Thoughts:
- Leather bunnysuit: not even once. I'm happy with how this came out though. It was a learning experience for sure. FotNS is my fave!
Wig Details
- Styling Notes
- Cut in more layers. I wanted to flip the ends out more with a curling iron but I forgot this wig is not heat resistant OTL
