(this is an old pic and my face looks kinda weird..maybe its my eyes it looks like im squinting >_o... but i like the layout of it.) well anyway, some people requested i upload this...finally got around to it.
Marth is such a cool character, and he has a really nice character design, but to top it off... hes ROYALTY . but after playing super smash bros melee, i totally wanted the outfit.
I love the cape. I grabbed 7 yards of the blue and dark maroon, and it flows so nicely but its heavy. the material is really light but once you put so much together, it becomes heavy. I hand embroidered all of the designs on the collar, and I stitched all of the gold decor in place. I really spent a lot of time on this costume, This was our first time making actual armor too, that was a pain to make (especially all of the designs) D: but over all it all came out very nicely.
we remade the sword (old one shown) since it bothered me and looked kinda big, my new one is spiffy
You did Marth! Oh my gosh.. Fire Emblem is one of my ALL time favorite games. If you were to do, say, a few characters from FF9 or FF10 (cough cough Ike or Ranulf) I would love you forever! (not that i don't already!)
You, my friend, are AMAZING.
