So I have started to plan my costume for Allanon from the MTV Chronicles of Shannara. I always liked Allanon as a kid. There was something about his darker side that I understood, that hit closer to home that Gandalf's laughter and fireworks. I like the updates to his costume that we have seen in the show so far, but I do wish they had stayed with earth tones more. After all he is a Druid.

I am enjoying Manu Bennett's performance, so I am really looking forward to wearing this costume.

First step:

The Robe

I thought a nice thick linen, dyed to the burgandy purple we see above. Plus I fee linen will have that nice worn in feel that his robe has. First thing, sketch time!

After the robe, I will be working on the leather pieces.

You are the first person I've seen working on a Shannara Chronicles costume woo! I'm planning to make Amberle for Dragoncon this year (and secretly hoping Manu returns as well). Definitely looking forward to your build :)
