[Lana Beniko - Shadow of Revan (2 in 1 costumes)]

 

Just tiny fixes,  anyway looks awesome!

A little suggestion for collar. It curves  at the top so if you do a little  V shaped cut in the top of your pattern  it should give that curve.

 

[Lana Beniko - Shadow of Revan (2 in 1 costumes)]

In swtor game all trousers/skirts have belt mockup or placeholder texture so you can wear it alone without belt piece and it still look like belt. I counted only one belt, two if count "mock up" belt. Mockup belt more looks like part of skirt top  decoration. Has none 3d pieces, all is flat. and one piece with skirt.

Went to Oxford Comic con and got some nice photos made.

 

Need pull shoulder pieces a bit more forward, they tend to slide backwards.

In game version boots differ.   Rishi disguise has them black and  SOR version has them brown.

Black defo would look better to mach gloves.

Thanks:D  I was so scared to go first.

That lightning looked well in the dim lit room, but on the stage it was too bringht to show effect.

[Dread Master Bestia (2011 version)]

Yes very creepy sith lady

 

 Updating my old armor pieces. New one form sculpted eva foam, bellow old one from stuffed fabric for comparison.

First time tried airbrush! How I could live without it

 

 

First mask was paper mache and cardboard, redid it in worbla

 

[Dread Master Bestia (2011 version)]

Started make Dread master Bestia  before it got golden mask. Still like creepy brain an feather mask more than golden one.

You can see some of my work in progress pictures on facebook https://www.facebook.com/ionSilentalcraftplay/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1558463694402653 I was limited in space and materials then started. Mostly working with paper mache. Now thinking remake some pieces in worbla.

Yes, need finish all hands and gloves and add that silly handle in the front of collar. Also still waiting for lightsaber hilt be made.

I tried shorter wig first, but looked it had too much volume  Maybe also will try cut my hair and style as needed. Will be less fuss than with wigs. Can't decide...

Need slide belt a bit lower. But then I do not have so defined waist and diferent body proportions it's tricky.

And attach shoulder armor with studs in the front so they dont flap

Shape collar in the front so it stiks to the tabards

Remake silver decorations on the skirt sides so they star a bit lower. 

 

[Lana Beniko (SWTOR) - character research]

Still need finish gloves and lightsaber and thinking redo collar.

Tested costume at London MCM Comic Con.

 

[Lana Beniko (SWTOR) - character research]

Made Lana's boots from repainted raiding boots.

 

 

Have large calf, so had glue in V shaped inserts from the back side.

Hope it won't be very visible, covered by the long cape.

 

Friend is helping me sew cape, im not good at sewing at all.

GoldenCat, It looks so good!

I though you already got approved  by now lol

 

I'm slowly working:D... aiming finish for  SW Celebration in London.

[Lana Beniko (SWTOR) - character research]

At last started work on Lana SoR boots

here ref pic. 

 

 

Could not find boots  enough wide to fit my calf, so will need imporvise and make inserts in the back .

Got black rubber riding boots, now trying find right paints to paint them brown like this.

Looks awesome

[Lana Beniko (SWTOR) - character research]

Thanks GoldenCat;] for link and explanaition.

I'm very slow crafter. With family and work taking all free time, would not want stress and hurry at all, its all for fun:D

For example my Dreadmaster Darth Bestia costume took me 2 years and still needs upgrades.

 

Oh good you reminded Rishi disguise outfit. Lana uses same tunic as Zayne Carrick just dyed in black/green.

Also she uses black boots not brown like SOR outfit.

[Lana Beniko (SWTOR) - character research]

How all submiting goes? Do I need go to UK garrison page to do that?

I'm worried my English is not so good....

[Lana Beniko (SWTOR) - character research]

Greetings,

 

I started work on Lana Beniko SOR costume this November, here is my progress so far. I will be using wig, don't want cut my long hair

Experimenting with make up, my eye lenses came with defect so need buy new ones.

Also finding high brown boots is very problematic then you are a plus size...Maybe will need scratch build them myself in the end.

 

 

Thanks to GoldenCat for sharing link to 3D model source will help a lot in research http://swtor.jedipedia.net/en/npc/lana-beniko-19

Wont need do jumping from the stronghold  in the game to see whats under the cape anymore
