Hi there! Thanks for viewing my image. I am the creator of and model of the costume, Nightingale Armor from the video game Elderscrolls V: Skyrim. This photoshoot was done by Bob Clark of RDC Photography: [link]
I play Skyrim and as I was wondering what costume to make I decided to just go for my favorite one! My character is always in this armor.
About the costume: I began planning and collecting materials in September 2012. Most of it is sewn out of pleather and vinyl which I then treated with black paint, silver spray paint, hot glue, model magic, and way more black paint. I made the pattern by cutting out pieces of paper and holding them up my body to see if they would be the right size and shape. Then I used those paper pieces to cut out my fabric. Very time consuming as I don't have a dress form. One day I'll get one. I completed the costume 4 months later in December.

There's also an extensive How-to on my blog now: [link]
It's just unfitting the suit. Maybe because white strips are weird... I know english not that good to do constructive critics. Sorry But everything else is superb!
I look forward for more
But bow is kinda unfitting.
