Construction Details:

Costume created from homemade patterns.
Gauntlet is wonderflex, craft foam, and silver spandex.
Boots were made by gluing craft foam to silver spandex, then either glued or velcroed to a pair of boots purchased from the thrift store.
Socks were purchased from SockDreams.com and altered to match ref.
Bardiche is made from craftfoam, wonderflex, resin blanks, an eye bolt/screw and 2 wooden dowels. The handle is convertible - it can be either small and handheld or a pole arm.

Personal Thoughts:

A friend and I decided to cosplay as Fate and Nanoha for the SLC Pride parade. We both made the costumes in less than a month.

Styling Notes

Wig treated to a hot shower to relax the waves out for a more straight, and longer, style. It is styled into 2 pigtails that are not permanent, so it can be used for alternate styles for the character. Bangs were sectioned, cut, and fluffed using Got2B Glued hairspray.

Wig Review

This is the second wig I've done any styling on (the first I only added ears), so the pig tails aren't as smooth as I'd like and we didn't have time to double check the bang length, so they're a bit long. I will eventually re-do it for future use.
