Model

This is a series of pictures taken of my Wife wearing a costume i designed, and made.

the costume is inspired heavily by the Sister of Battle, also known as the militant part of the Adepta Sororitas, and the right hand of the Inquisitorial Ordo Hereticus.

Based on the color scheme of the Order of Our Martyred Lady.

It took roughly 6 months of trial, error, pain and joy to make, several hours a day, usually after work.

Materials are mostly sheet styrene and PVC expanded hard foam, i emphasize, hard, there's really very little that's foam-like about the stuff.

Various reasons for doing this, the main being to see if i could and a good portfolio piece towards prospective employers.

The armor design is very nice and your wife is quite beautiful, but I, personally, don't like the whole downward angle for pictures. It makes everyone look like they have midget legs.

thanks for your opinion
i'm jut a craftsman, i don't really do photography, so while i can understand where you are coming from, it's not particularly the focus of the deviation.

Wow! Kudos!! Outstanding Photo OP! Well worth the effort and time on the costume and extra's!! Would Love to see more creativite photo's on both your parts. You both have the talent and patience for it. The stance,the pause, the poise of expression surely projects a moment of thought for the onlooker.. Keep up the good work! Would love to see more various photo poses like combat anger or the sister look, or even the reflection look etc, etc, you know all the jargon.. Thanks for sharing your work. By the way Does your wife have a Sister?.. (just a little pun there).

2 thumbs up!!
