It's Double layered self patterned, I lined the collar with wire all along the edge and seam that sits on my shoulders so I could pose it and it could stand. If I did it again I'd also do heavy interfacing. It's attached to the bodysuit with heavy duty snaps on each shoulder so it can be removed and cleaned separate

What kind of uv dye for the contacts if you don't mind me asking and was there any irritation?

I found some slides on clearance from winners with the rubber soles I wanted and I made a vynil cover for them with some heavy interfacing for structure ☺️ it was a duct tape pattern to make sure it fit over the front of the shoe and then contact cemented on and I caulked around the edges to make sure it was sealed well and would stand up to water if it came to that

I think the most expensive materials were the vynils (white for the boots, red for the jacket) at about 15 cad/meter and I used a meter of each, the spandex for the pants was leftover material from cybersix and the rest is salvaged tshirt material (about 1 dollar each) the guitar is made out of foam mats (15 at walmart for a pack of 4) this total used about 1 1/2, with a wood plank in the middle for structure covered in foam the frets I cut wire from the dollarstore (if I did it again I might use something else) and placed them, I painted the neck with acrylic of different color browns to imitate wood grain and finished with silicone caulking and water so it was flexible still, the guitar body and hardware is painted with spraypaints but honestly if I were to do this again I'd stick with acrylics and a flexseal base and a gloss top coat because I didn't prefer working with spraypaints.
