Done with the tunic and chainmail!

Someday I will post updated pictures, but right now they are living on my camera.
Things are progressing well!
The tunic is completely done, along with chainmail sewed on.  We have been working on the belts, pouches, gloves, and etc lately.  We dyed all the leather stuff today and the gloves were finished last night.

I've been talking to my dad about cutting out a wooden sword as a base to work off of.  Hopefully if it's not too cold we will be able to start that next week over break.  Most of our costume is now complete!  The main things now will be the sword, shield, and sheath, along with a few small details.

Well, just a short update for now!

To Begin...

I am doing a Legend of Zelda cosplay.  When I am finished it will be Link from Skyward Sword.

I know have a lot of the raw materials, now it's just a lot of sewing to do.  I'm hoping to start when Christmas if over.
Here's what I have so far:

Pants 50% (needs sewing)
Shirt 50% (needs sewing)
Boots 50% (need to take off a buckle)
Tunic 5% (only have fabric) Fabric is actually two pairs of curtains I found at Goodwill, lol. Just the right kind of texture I wanted as well as good color.
Sword 25% (got a Nerf Marauder Long sword.  Need to use craft foam to make the handle)
Shield 5% (Going to see if I can use a snow saucer [of all things] as a base)
Hat 5% (only have fabric)
Belts
Bracer
Gloves
Bags
Chain mail fabric
Here is a pic of the fabric for the tunic and the pants :



















Well, that's all for now.  I'll upload more pictures as I make more items.  If you have any questions feel free to ask!
