Pirotess
Character:
Pirotess

Series: Record of Lodoss Wars
When Completed: June 2007
Reason: My group of friends and cosplay buddies had
done a Lodoss Wars group for Fanime 07 and they asked me if I would
be their Pirotess for AX. I happily agreed since elves are bad ass,
especially sexy evil ones.

Construction
notes:
My first method of using AquaColor
to color my skin failed horribly even after practicing with it 3 different times for hours
before hand. My second and third times wearing the costume I used spray on nylons in one of their darkest shades. I had someone spray it on me and then I rubbed it in with my hands. For my face and ears, I did my foundation make up first, then sprayed the nylon stuff in a cup and brushed it on with a make-up brush. I then did my normal make-up over that. The spray nylons are water resistant, and even being in a vinyl dress in the summer it didn't rub off nearly at all (just a little at my skirt hem, boots, and the opening of the top.
Anyway, the dress and gloves are made of white vinyl. The gold details around the collar are all hand embroidered and the edges were done on a sewing machine. Belts and necklace thing are also made of vinyl. The metal bits are all craft foam and accented with beads. Ears were purchased off e-bay. Boots and wig purchased from Cosworx, wig is an Amanda in white.
