Debuted: Kumoricon 2007 in Vancouver, WA.
This is my costume of Barret Wallace, the Advent Children version. I had a lot of fun making it and collecting the pieces. The final product speaks for itself, I'd think. ^_^
The Gun-arm I made from scratch. Mainly I used lots of craft foam, hot glue, silver spray paint, silver metal buttons, nails, and pvc pipes. I love how the gun turned out!
The shirt my wife made from mesh, pretty much just sewing it together.
The only things that weren't handmade (with some help) are the vest and pants. The wristband and elbowpad my wife made. Elbowpad out of various leathers and grommets, and the wristband is just elastic with red ribbon.
I have worn it to Kumoricon for three years, and will continue to modify it as the need arises to continue wearing it every so often.
