Originating Series

Soul Calibur III

Construction Notes

The Kimono was hand painted with a design I drafted based on the ingame images
(that fabric took forever and a day to find).
The trim is quilted silk, interfaced to make sure it lays smooth.
The obi is hand embrodered (check out my gallery for a closeup).
The hair peices were cut out of pexiglass.
The shoes where carved out of wood and stained and painted.
The umbrella is a parisol that I removed the paper from, and replaced with a cloth cover of my own design. I also cut off the handle and attached a bamboo sword.
