Tira Soul Calibur Iv Costume

Tira Soul Calibur

About

So I made this entire costume for Wizard World Convention in Philadelphia.. Everything was hand sewn, hand crafted, hand molded, hand painted. And when I mean everything... I mean EVERYTHING. I bought a crap load of fabric, foam, clay and a hoola hoop :P..

I was working a full time job at the time.. so it took me a good 2 weeks to make working on my days off and every night after work.. It probably took longer then the time I put up above, but I just figured anything I put over 20 hours would seem ridiculous.

I am IN LOVE with Tira and I literally sat there and just stared at the video game in character edit mode for hours each day just to perfect it.

I am still in love with it, and if anyone has any questions I'll do my best to help out.. but I'm not going to do a how to since this one had WAY too many things involved!! Next time I'll remember to do a tut with my crazy ones :].

*** By the way, I won first place in the costume contest, trust me I was overly excited!***
Enjoy!

C + C appreciated!
