Blink (Clarice Ferguson) is a mutant who can create dimension warping portals which can teleport people and objects.
COAT: This will be the most complicated part of the outfit to make. It is mostly black, with some parts plain leather, some parts black plastic mesh (particularly around the arms) and some nice ribbed? leather across the chest.
The coat is around knee length and is styled so that it is only strapped across the chest and then left to separate further and further away. (sorry im not good at describing things if i cant find the correct words.) The straps resemable those on backpacks.
The whole thing is bordered with zipper teeth. As are all the beaded embroidery sections. The embroidery is by far the most intricate part of the outfit. Its a mixture of sead beads, spaces, bead tubes. Every style of bead but particularly the rounded rounds and the tubes. The beads on the upper arms are more uniform in nature with only a few studs invading their pattern.
The shoulder guards are, like most of the collar embroidery, in rows. Diving the different styles of beads with sqaure ones running through the middle, increasing in size. The collar is much the same, with some rows simply containing one long thin bead.
The arm guards I haven’t bean able to get good refs for but they do also have a small circle of beads in it’s center. She either wears fingerless gloves with these or simply has a whole in the sleeves to fit her thumb through.
Patterns: Not sure how helpful they will be 1, 2, 3, 4.
Sorry D: If you find a jacket pattern that works then you can perhaps simply draft the bottom part of it.
Tutorials: 1. (theres a few cosplays in the days of future past section) (x)
Bead Options: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
(These are just ideas of the sorts of beads you could use. As well as general bead “findings” the metallic pieces that can come with making jewellery. You can find these at any bead store and craft store. If neither is available then there are plenty online. I find anything that is the right colour would work on this haphazard but beautiful embroidery.)
PANTS: Leather or similiar again. Fairly plain, but high waisted. Tight and thin enough that her shoes can be worn over them.
SHOES: Very tall black lace up boots, with a heel.
Possible Options: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
If you cant find any that fit, I know a few tutorials that can help you make long boot covers to fit your legs.
HAIR: Some debate. It’s a toss between dark pink or magenta. It’s long with the colour striping through it as it’s slowly braided in. Two strands are left to dangle on either side of her face. I’ve found it hard to find any that might work. Most will require the colour to be wefted in.
Possible Options: 1, 2, 3, 4, Blink Wigs 5, 6.
From Arda, I think maybe an Imraldis?, Tauriel or a Suzi might be suitable.
Weft Options: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
From Arda I think either a Raspberry, Magenta or Ultraviolet would be suitable for wefts.
Tutorials: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
MAKEUP: Pale skin, dark eyebrows. Long pale purple crescent across the right eye, a diamond in the middle and two striangles on top of the left eyebrow. Her lips are dark red with a bit of smoky black mixed in.
Her eyes are a bright green. Contacts will be needed D:
She also has pointed ears. But they resemble the style used by LOTR elves so anything similiar should be perfect.
For ears look at these (x) and (x)
PROPS: The only ones I can think of are her dark pink/magenta javelins that resemble icicles. You’ll probably have to make a mold.
Tutorials: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
These aren’t specific to Blink, but the processes I think may be helpful.
I hope this helps. It was an emergency ref and hopefully it can be added too as more people start to cosplay her.
IM STILL WORKING ON SPIDEY THOUGH OK.
