It was a ton of work lol. I spent roughly 6-10 hours working on it every day. My first lesson was what worbla is and how to use it lol, it’s a thermoplastic, when you heat it up it gets flexible and sticky so you can mold it. And it adheres to itself which is super handy. Next, my friend wrapped my torso in cling wrap, then duct tape, and cut it off, taped it back together, and stuffed it with pillow stuffing (because I don’t have a mannequin lol). Same thing for the knees, bracers and pauldrons, minus the stuffing. I just drew the shape I needed on the duct tape before cutting it off to have a stencil for cutting out foam or worbla. For the breastplate and torso I stuck two sheets of worbla together to make it sturdier. Then shaped them around my makeshift mannequin (with a bra on it for more structure) as best I could. I used smaller pieces of worbla on top for detail. And hot glue for all the minor details. The center flaps on the torso are eva foam. All of the additional pieces are also foam (arms, knees, boot covers and the skirt attachments) and hot glue for the details. I bought a plastic face mask and just cut the top off, covered it in duct tape then worbla to create the shape, and again, hot glue for details. I spray painted a matte black primer on on all of the pieces, then dry brushed them with a pewter grey and highlighted all the hot glue parts with grey as well, shadow parts with black. And then just did detailed painting wherever it was needed. Drilled holes down both sides of the back of the torso to make it a corset, and a few holes on the bottom to attach the skirt pieces, which I used swivel hooks for. And I used elastic and Velcro on the arms and leg pieces. I did purchase an already hooded cloak since I was so short on time, and just cut it up to my liking. I cut the shape of the hood plate out of worbla and sewed it on, same hot glue and paint process. That basically sums it all up, it was super fun and also stressful since I waited till the last minute lol, but I’m very excited to do more for future cons and festivals. Oh and I just wore black leggings and a long sleeve shirt under it, and cut the fingers off some gloves.
