#hunter garb

[makeshiftwings30]

we had another little soulsborne get-together this year at dragon*con (thanks to @muchandquick for inviting me again!). this time we had a couple photographers! so i was able to get a few more shots of my hunter which was great. unfortunately it was in broad daylight, so there was some really harsh lighting that blew out the colors of the outfit in some of the pics. there were at least 3 other photoshoots going on at the time, so there’s some fun stuff in the background.  and it was very hot. but you can’t really tell (or maybe you can).

the outfit was made entirely by myself last year a few months after the game came out. more info on it here: http://www.cosplay.com/costume/488419/

back from dragon*con! it was a lot of fun wearing the hunter. the shoot on sunday was fun and everyone was great! i’m uploading the photos now to imgur and i’ll post a link when it’s done.

i rather like the pic facing the arch, it reminds me of a fog gate :D

Had a great day at Dragon con, met some awesome Bloodborne fans and got photos together. I'll upload them and send links when I get settled at home!

ok SO

i’m basically pretty much done with the outfit, except for some adjustments i need to make as a result of trying everything on, the gun holster (waiting til i make the pistol), and the hat (of which i’m waiting on a base hat in the mail to build it off of - hopefully it works).

there’s so many little details under the giant coat that’ll never be seen, and that’s kind of sad, but that’s ok.

haven’t talked about the vest yet - it’s made from leather, which my machine really hated sewing. closes with velcro. found the buckles on etsy and spray painted them gold (if anyone wants to buy the other 4, let me know, lol)

already tore up the coat. i’m going to bloody and ashen it up soon. RIP

Got the first detail piece made for the wrist guard. First time working with worbla - it's a lot of fun! I used the sandwich method with strips of worbla for the detail. Lots of work x_x

bloodborne hunter coat is done! except for weathering, which i’m a little terrified to do since i have to rip up the bottom. i’ve done it before for wander, but it’s still scary taking a utility knife to something you’ve spent so many hours on ;_; blood splattering i plan on doing all at once so it looks cohesive.

technical junk: the coat is made from a modified Mccall’s M7003. it’s made out of denim and fully lined and serged.

i am pretty sure i’m going to die of heat exhaustion at dragon*con, but at least i’ll look cool.
