Hey you all! So finally after weeks of asking my girlfriend what she'll dress as on halloween, she settled on Alice from the new Mcgee's game; madness returns! As I've never done a piece like this before, I hope some of you pro's could help me out on things. I haven't really begun looking for the fabric but I hope that won't be a problem. The knife (Vorpal Blade) might actually be the hardest for me to pull out as I'm fairly new (ok, I'm really new) to prop building too. I might, if there'll be time for it, try tackling a mad hatter costume for myself but we'll see. Here are some photos I'll use as a starting point until the game will come out (June 16) so not long to go! Yey!
The dress and the apron:
I'll most likely be using coarse cotton for both the dress and the apron. It seems that most of the new cgi use fabrics that are non-existing as was discussed on the new catwoman costume thread.I mean, cotton won't shine of like that, will it?
The shoes:
Any help finding the shoes would be greatly appreciated. And to make things more interesting, they have to be vegetarian, ie. synthetic as we're both vegans:lol
The Vorpal Blade:
This I'll most likely be making from plywood as I've done a machete from it and have no experience casting anything.
The skull:
I might modify an euro store skull to fit the bill.
So what do you guys think? Can I pull this off? What do I need to consider? Have I missed something important?
Oh yeah, almost forgot:
It seems to me that the knife is not engraved in the game photos but the real life replica that they are selling seems to be as seen on this site:
