Day one with woman in the wind.

This is going to be a long post, I was asked for a more detailed description of the creations of my contributions to this incredible cos play character.

I started with the boots. They are a cross between a flip flop and a work boot. I started with a vibrum sole from , a solid base to start a concept boot. For the smooth body, I used 3-4 oz crome tan black cow side , the foot bed is layed with suide , veg tan and a bonded leather from and respectively.

The next piece to design and construct is the eye patch, I started with a lens that is intended for aviators goggles I found on Etsy ( order from the US based seller, I learned the hard way). The leather is a combination of crome tan leather from . The buckles are from .

There is a ranger belt based sword belt and gauntlet. Both are a veg tan and dyed using usmc black.

We are building a sword and sheath to complete our contributions that we are using a sting ray from pics to come.

A very special creation, we made the boots, gauntlet, and eye patch, and we're not even done yet.

Got the patches stitched on for the local firehouse.
