Hi folks!
I wanted to start a build thread and get some feedback on some items. The concept CRL is interesting as it allows leeway on several aspects (belt, collar, optional lines on the shirt) but I don't want to go too far afield with the options that are not shown in the CRL Hopefully I am putting this in the right place.
Belt-does anyone have any approved references images for the belt having the lower skinny belts crossed in the front and back? The CRL shows 2 belts; one on the costumer and one on it's own. The one on its own looks like the crossed in an x pattern style, but I was wondering if anyone had an image of this on a person or if keeping to the action figure model as shown on the reference pics on the forum make sense.
Shirt- horizontal lines- if I add horizontal lines to the light grey portion of the shirt, can they be stitched lines (same color as the fabric), folded-over layers to create the horizontal pattern, or should they be painted on?
Collar- for the concentric rings- should these be created with overlapping layers, with a solid material in concentric circles under the material, stitching lines in the material, or another way? Does anyone have any approved costume references I can take a look at? I am having a tough time seeing the collar / neck seal details in the CRL
Here are some images of collars I have made. Are either of these on the right track? Thank you!
Concentric rings under the material:
Overlapped leather (might benefit from some edging if this is on the right track)
