Why I chose for this costume:
Christie kicks ass. I did some cute characters and it was time to pick out an assasin.
I thought it would be hard to play an assasin but it was pretty easy. No laughing at pictures but just a simple normal look on my face.
But I really love her outfit and her personality in the game so that is the main reason why I chose her.
How is it made?
I bought the trousers and made them lower at the waist. I drew my own patterns for the jacket and handpainted the fire on it.
Sewed some skai-leather straps together for my belts and took some stud from a belt and used them in my collar.
I had to use low sporty shoes because I did a fighting act. It was pretty rough so I couldn't use high heels on this one. But I did use shoes with a flame on it ;)
Also a sidenote: I made a bikinitop with an invisibla bra strap between it and taped it at me breast. I also used a invisible bra strap for my jacket and taped it at my skin. So yes I'm wearing a ' bra' and yes the jacket is taped and will stay at my skin.
Other thoughts:
I really love my wig. It's so pretty and soft. I also had blue contacts on the convention. To bad I couldn't wear them anymore at the photoshoot.
