26th March 2014: Swishy swish-swish-swish~~ I ALSO COMPLETED THE CAPE AGES AGO IDEK WHY THERES NO PICS OF IT YET
13th March 2014: Buttpouches - OLD PROGRESS They're pretty much done now, just waiting for some stuff to dry off >:C
Old progress until I can fetch them from the cupboard above the heater x'D
28th February 2014: Cape Part 1 The pattern for the actual fabric section of the cape is cut out, but needs shaping/editing so it falls right, but until that's sorted, have this - took all of about two hours of cutting foam, glueing pleather to it, then backing it in suede.
Needs the detailing and such sewing/painting on - then it's studs and rope fastenings~ 8D
28th February 2014: Gauntlet Progress Studs are technically too big, but they look legit, so nyer.
Just need to add the underlayer of leather, and the buckles/straps, which will take about an hour, tops. Then just need to slot a hidden blade (which I'm buying like a lazy hobo xD) under it. Woooo easy~~
24th February 2014: Belt Progress Part 2 Aaaaaah such crafting
Very wow
21st February 2014: Belt Progress Awww Bene - worbla base I'll be building over with detailing in clay C: SUCH PRIDE. VERY ASSASSINOOOOO~
20th February 2014: Doublet 90% Done Just the hood and buttons to go... and now it gets REALLY fiddly
How do you even Assassin hood xD
18th February 2014: Getting there, getting there... Ouch my patience.
28th January 2014: Buttbutt Progress pic of the backside of Mr Auditore ;D
Needs tweaking, but this was my attempt having been unable to see how the back hung, until these pics xD
Close, but not quite there. All fixable, though >:C Bene! This layer, sans painting, should be done tomorrow night~~
22nd January 2014: Tail Lining Work - Paint Layer 1 The base bronze (that shows up gold, score xD) layer on his 'tail' lining.
I'll be layering it up/adding more details and such as I go, but yeah~ Need to se the bottom layer of gold ribbon down, too, but hey-ho, progress is progress~
22nd January 2014: Lace Galore Gradually adding lace to the various panels of his Doublet, and his shirt is pretty much finished - pics to come~
21st December 2013: Gradual Progress All 3 stages of dying Ezio's doublet pattern are sorted, so fingers crossed it's not come out ugly/blotchy... maybe /cough
Also am about 90% done on his shirt, just need to sort out his collar and sleeves, and then we're done! Progress pics soon, since I'll be styling his wig/trying out makeup asap!
6th December 2013: Plans So Far Okay so with work now getting in the way finding time and energy to work on Ezio may be a little tough, but I've started drafting out the pattern-pieces of his doublet, and buying fabric as and when I can.
The latter has kind of gone wrong already due to buying online for a change - which I usually avoid - and now I recall why. Sending back both loads of fabric 'cos they're wrong. Derp x'D
But anyhoo. My plan for this Sunday is to break down all his armour pieces and make worbla bases for all of them~ so I can build up over them in clay or whatnot later. Then, time permitting, more work on the draft doublet.
Wish me luck!
1st November 2013: Planning, but Progress is Progress Working out all of Ezio layers, picking out fabrics, working out how to do big chunks of him, etc.
Hopefully gonna make a start on him by later this month! Roll on Kitacon >8C
