I just am not sure it'd look right....I am kind of an all or nothing costumer
I LOVED how the Reel Creations looked! -
Yes, this is sort of a special occasion thing! Reel creations worked great! I think $80 or so
Luckily, I am small -
Thanks so much! Any thoughts on the costume?
-

Thanks!

I like the look of the suit....may have to try something like that for mine.
-
Everyone is still getting back from Celebration. I think I'd like to try and put a finish bead on the bra top. I may take it into a shop for that. I also banged the thighs up a bit, and shipping in the suitcase was not good for the paint, so will repaint
I need a way to make stencils, the paint took way too long
Any thoughts? I submitted to all groups already
-
Oh wow! Love it!
-

I realize after I mve the bottom, it was to high, the belt area needs to show skin. My first photos have it correct
I also did not get the lekku all the way down on my ears. Any tips are welcome! -

and some Celebration photos:

Ok! I finished and gave it my first run at Celebration! What an amazing time! This is real creations red #2, airbrushed on. It was a perfect match for the Lekku in my opinion. My trooper team was so nice to paint me! We did cut it close on time, and had to rush a bit, and this was all freehand. I need to work on the stencils technique for the future.
Any feedback is welcome!
Here are some behind the scenes:

Hoping to do some paint and suit up 100% this weekend
-
Ok, took it all apart, thinned the bands, and sewed it again. This is more what I wanted. The leather matches the size of the strapless bra underneath
It was late, so I did not put on the whole gear, but here is my top:
-
My favorite style is like this:
When you look at this one, it looks very "cupped" instead of the band style, the bands are not equal width at all.
That one is banded, but has the deep V
Then here she is totally squared off:

Thanks all! I really appreciate it! I am also agree, I really love to get the details right, and Talon is an iconic look. I do not want to do it wrong!
I am not an expert at sewing
I am not sure what happened, but I measured my bands to be the same as the bra, and when I sewed it up, the total length was longer by almost one band! I do agree, the bottom one is too low, and I think I will either take it all apart and just narrow each band, or redo completely....I really like th elook of the sewn bands if I can get the measurements right. I am closer...I think I can do it!So look for version #3 quite soon!
I do like the "V" look better. she definitely has many variations on the style from frame to frame, and I do concur that the U shape seems to be the most often seen though. For now, the CRL allows either V or U, so I will take the V.
Good catch on the hand bands! I do have a pair. I should have put them on. I also still need to weather it up. I'll make sure to include them next time
