Props

Feeling a bit down today so I'm going to make this a short post. Now that the costumes are almost 100% done I've been working on the props, trying to quickly get them done. The main props are the armor plates and rosaries.

Theses are (Well some are) extra armor plates just in case anything goes wrong with the finished pieces. Since we're in the contest I don't want us to be left in the dust if something goes wrong so I'm making one set of extra for each pair of plates. 

Made out of:

~Craft foam

~Mod Podge

~Acrylic paint

~Steel pin back

The finished armor plates. The longer ones are for Abel's cuffs and the shorter ones are for Abel's collar. I was going to sew these on but realized that I couldn't wash the costumes with them on. And since they are white, they will most likely need to be washed after the con so I remembered I bought these a while back and just hot glued them on. They work nicely. 

The two rosaries. Abel's is the golden one, which is flipped over on its back to dry. It's a bit thick but it'll do for now. I'm not that great at making jewelry, its something I want to learn more about. The silver one is for Caterina. Both will be attached by chains and will be a big piece of our cosplays. 

 Abel's is made out of:
~Craft foam
~Model Magic clay
~Wire armature
~Thick floral wire
~Mode Podge
~Acrylic paint

Caterina's is made out of:
~Model Magic clay
~Wire armature
~Varnish
~ Acrylic paint
~Resin
~Pearls and gems (Fake)
