About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
Based on the comic series 'The Warlord', by Mike Grell. No wardrobe malfunctions here!
Spandex, fur, lame, satin, velor, wire, paint, feathers, sculpe, latex, sequins, jewels were all used for this project.
All the "metal" parts of the costumes were actually fabric. A few pieces of metal were used in conjunction. Leggings used wire inside fabric to hold everything up.
Morgan's sword, helm, scabbards, dagger;
Mariah's sword & sheath; my spear & collar were all hand made by a local SCA friend. So yes, they're real & sharp.
Fur, spiked collar & a spear. Yup! Can't get any better than that!
