Nose has been darkened
Soo..."real world" art, I designed and sewed this costume for halloween... everything you see from the goggles to the socks were home made. (didn't design the hand part of the glove, that came from an online tutorial). Also, sadly the sprocket board on my arm guard came off before these pictures were taken
I have some process pics, but no time to resize them right now so I'll post them tomorrow if anyone's interested.
You can see the choker a bit better here...I cut the collar off of a shirt that didn't fit very well, and glued some lace, ribbons, pearl string ,and a charm I got at Value Village to it. THe corset was made out of old vinyl I had leftover from shooting. Skirt is made of this awesome material that I got at 33% cost
...to give it more texture and body, I sewed up the ends and put in some tulle...to keep one end up I put grommits into the side of the skirt and used lace to string the holes together. You can't see the chain with sprockets and charms in any of the pictures unfortunately, but I'll try to take a pic of it sometime. The goggles were old swimming goggles that I wrapped in brown vinyl, then replaced the nosepiece with a clasp I found at the fabric store. The string is just black elastic.
Also sorta like a photography post, took this photo of a friend who I was with, he made all the mechanical bits for everyone, including an awesome arm. I made his coat from some wool material... ran out of thread the night before, so I ended up glue gunning some of the parts together XD. I didn't design it, though (used a pattern).
Another photography post...
And here is all of us together.
