Costumes!!

[Knight of Gondor]

Mine is all done, too! If I can find someone to host my image, I will put up my costume picture so you can see it. I must again give all credit to my lovely sister. She's a great seamstress already, and she's barely begun.<P>I have a chain mail shirt (it's not real, it's just fabric that looks like chain mail) underneath, and then a tunic that goes over that. It fastens (the tunic does) in four places with little hooks. Then I have my cloak, which she fastened hooks to to close it. I have my Elven Broach on it, but 1, it orients itself vertically (hate that) and 2, it looks kind of small, actually, in the folds of the cloak. I'm looking into wigs and beards (my little beard is just too scrawny, and long hair looks hippy without a costume), and I also have arm vambraces. (Just toy armor foot guards with leather sewn over top of them) <P>It's very convincing, if I do say so myself! She (my sister) also made herself an Eowyn dress. And they get their first breath of theater air coming up in just a few short days, wahoo!
