Description
Hi there! Thanks for viewing my image.I am the maker of and model of the costume, Nightingale Armor from the video game Elderscrolls V: Skyrim. These lovely photos were taken by the talented Andrew Snucins Photography, www.andrewsnucins.com.
The Nightingales are the original concept of Bethesda.
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 a humble write up on my blog of how I made this costume here: beebichu.blogspot.ca/

May I suggest instead of a dress form to just make a Duct tape dummy of yourself? [link]

We use them in the furry community to make fursuits but I've also applied them to my armor commissions

I just made one. How do you fill in the bottom so that the stuffing doesn't come out?

This is really awesome. The snow in the background, your cosplay, everything! I've seen many people who've tried to make a Nightingale cosplay and it didn't look so great, but this one? Amazing!

Stunning. The detail of the outfit is jawdropping, and your pose is. Well. Imposing. I wouldn't want to run into you in a dark wood any time soon.

Awesome work, incredible detail and very sinister (which is a good thing of course) :}

I don't see why not. Just don't use a corset style pattern for the top part of the armor. Maybe a mans tank top pattern would help?
