I walked away from Ghost in the Shell loving the styling and costumes. Movie was pretty enjoyable too!
A couple of days later I was still thinking about that Geisha Bot, a week later I was cautiously 'looking into it'.
Now I'm a lost cause I have about 18 meters of dupion silk waiting to be sewn into a kimono, more fabric swatches than I can shake a stick at
and the fist part of my Geisha mask on its way from China where it was 3D printed.
So, enjoy the ride. Below are my work in progress and material pics and just as with my Gamora http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=237264 I will
be going for as screen accurate as my funds allow me (I like ramen noodels)! :$
Kimono WIP
- Dupion silk swatches
- Pattern creation for collar
- Testing out Montana transparent spray paint for the second collar.
Tsuzure obi which will be remade into the fancy one.
- Test folds to establish the musubi (knot), managed to reverse engineer that one.
- I'll probably create the lines by hand embroidery
Mask
- Parts of the mask are 3D printed (face is printed), but a lot of it will be hand sculpted using worbla.
- The kanzashi (hair ornaments) will be created using Worbla and brass
- I plan on putting a fan inside the mask as I will be wearing a full white custom leotard and it will be hot
