About this Costume
- Construction Details:

This proved a bit beyond my skill level, so I had the base commissioned. Details were added by me, mostly including fabric adhesive that could be ironed on in order to attach Senketsu's "eye". A similar method was used for the belt, folding over the fabric and holding it down while attaching the pleather "pockets" on the side.
The scissor blade was pretty fun to make, although rushed. It was made from 3/4" pink foam, cut out and sanded down since I didn't have a beveler. Spackling was applied in order to fill up as many holes as possible, then followed by layers of wood glue that would be sanded down after they dried. Finally, it was coated in Plasti-Dip and painted. I'm looking to redo this in a plywood format, although i LOVED how easy it was to carry around the foam. - Personal Thoughts:
- Still working on finding the perfect shoes..
