Jakotsu Is Ready For Battle

Description

Ok since FAE I added some things. I made the chest armor which I took from a corset pattern and like with the arm armor I cut out squares and sewed them on one buy one. There are a total of over 250 sqaures on the chest armor alone. I added a strap to the pattern and used bias tape to trim it and made my own bias tape to trim the edges of the armor. It was my first time working with boning and it was an expereince for sure. It took me a total of 6 days to complete.

I also added two more blades to my sword and they can fold up into the main blade. The two extra blades are thinner than the main blade. It took me a day to make and paint them and then coat them with a finishing coat.

Last thing I added was the sword bag which I drafted myself and used denim as a base and sewed squares on that one by one. It was hard adding the stap since it wrapped around the bag. It took another 5 days to make it.

I had fun as Jakotsu at Metrocon and entered it into the costume contest but sadly di not win anything even though I made 100 percent of the costume. You can next see jakotsu at AFO 2012.

Please comment on what you think. I love feed back.

Amazing quality!! What corset pattern did you use for the under armor, if you don't mind my asking?
