I needed to create a costume for the photo shoot to promote the web series, "The Broken Continent."

It had to be something Earthy, Medieval-feeling, and able to be fought in. It had to look worn and lived in. To dirty it up and distress the costume, we used makeup dirt as well as different shades of chalk. It looked dirtier and more worn in person than it does in the photos.

It's hard to see the breeches, but they're made from a faux leather fabric.

The professional photo makes the costume look pretty awesome!
