Costumes made for people!

PEOPLE COSTUMES/PROJECTS

Every once in a while I do special projects for human subjects. These are mostly costumes and
definitely use all of my dressmaking/pattern making skills - and are made for friends/relatives
(I don't do commissions for these costumes). I have included pictures of some of the
projects to show the variety of work I have done. Happy Viewing!

Cecil Harvey Dark Knight - Final Fantasy IV **- 2010**
Although I **DID NOT** make this costume, I wanted to showcase the fabulous talent of my son Neal. He made all of the armor, helmet and sword for this costume using a 3-D printer (modeled the pieces in the computer first using 3-D Max). I did help him with the costume - made the bodysuit underneath (with straps & buckles to hold some of the pieces on) and with a few other miscellaneous things.
