this costume was a secret of mine for a while....well ok maybe not that much of a secret since I did tell people about it long ago that I always wanted to make it. But no one knew I was already working on it and getting it ready for animagic.

Its not 100% completed yet, instead its around 95%. There are still a few things I need to add on this so hopefully that will be done soon. , but it turned out so awesome. Im seriously lovin this costume.
The face is a latex face that I made, my dad had to put plaster on my face to get a mold because there is no way a person can put plaster on their own face LOL. But the mouth does move when I talk, its all pretty cool looking.
But the sculpting work and latex work was all done by me and surprisingly...it only took a couple days to do.
The costume was to be honestly, more difficult than the face. -_-
But it turned out really well. I just love my fins lol and the gradient colors.
Only downside to this costume is it takes a little longer to put on than the rest of my Link costumes.

The whole costume was made by me including the boots I made from real leather. The fins were the most challenging believe it or not, and the latex face wasnt that difficult, just time consuming. The body was a little tough as well, notice the fish ribs? hehe. Yeah, I did as much as I could to make this look as real as possible, and Im very proud of myself for the way i was able to acheive the face.
