It’s not a mystery, I’m an Erza fan. The second I saw this new costume appeared in the manga chapters, I knew right away that I would make it. I love everything about it; the color, the greatness that it has, the huge weapon and the concept of it. It was a real challenge to make and I still need to finish the prop, but it should be done soon.
Construction:
All the armor was made by me with worbla, craft foam, "D" rings, elastics, sponges and velcro. The paint was made using acrylics and matte varnish. The naginata(weapon) was made by me with eva foam, worbla, craft foam, a wooden stick, and drydex. It was painted once again with acrylics and matte varnish. A friend of mine helped me made the details for the boob whole on the bodysuit since I was really having a hard time with it. I made the base of the bodysuit myself with a pattern that was bought. The thigh highs, the gloves and the fabric loop were all made by me from scratch.
Bought or commissioned:
My wig is a Persephone- 40" Dark Red Straight long cosplay wig was bought from epiccosplay. I bought my shoes on Taobao and edited them. The only thing that was bought is my transparent thighs that were used to sew the thigh highs onto it.
