Construction Details:

Drafted the pattern for the pants myself and made them from a darker blue apparel vinyl.

The shirt and back wings(?) were made by the tedious process of cutting a strip of vinyl, adding interfacing, clipping it in place and at the right length so that the piece would be tight, and sewing it on. Tedious is an understatement; the process drove me insane, having to try on the garment every time without displacing the clips.

The rings on the shirt are o-rings, made from nitrile so that they "stick" to the vinyl on the inner waistband.

The cuffs were made from gold lycra and the tattoos were printed on inkjet tattoo paper.

Personal Thoughts:

Diavolo was one of the more daring cosplays I decided to go with. Not only did it take some confidence that I had the body for it but also a lot of learning and experimenting with sewing and construction methods. In the end, I was satisfied with the results.

How was the wig colored?

Sharpie

Styling Notes

Surprisingly simple to style. I trimmed down the bangs before pinning and hairspraying them around my forehead. After trimming them again and a few more coats of hairspray, I used a green sharpie to add spots all over the wig.
