Asajj Ventress Body Armour

This is my first costume I had made to wear to a con.
I am not 100% happy with it and wish I had been thinner when I wore it but I had fun and that is what counts.
Ventress is a totally under rated character and she needs some love.
Also I thought it was important to post some photos so people can see you can do what you want and shouldn't let things hold you back. :)

Very awesome! I love Ventress, she's an interesting character. You should make her helmet from the last few episodes of the clone wars (season 5 ep 19 i think), it would be sweet for your costume.

Dude, you are totally rockin it! One day I hope I have the guts to shave my head to do her. I'd love to see build progress photos!
 
I would like to see more of your makeup. It looks really good from the shots you have there. Like you captured the look really well. That's where they usually lose me on Ventress.
 
Excellent Job with the Armour and the make up, i really love the pictures of two of my favourite dark side girls, Talon and Asajj.

Yes I would love to, I'm currently working on some foam and Pep armour and if I can get it done well enought I would definitley make one of these.
I am growing my hair back now so don't want to shave it again but would love to do more Ventress costumes.

Yes Talon was so great! I helped with so many make up tests for her costume (and also to take photos to be approved for the 501st) It was great to be able to go to a con together in some not so popular sith chick costumes :)

Absolutly love the costume, well done. Please share more pics if you have them!.

Unfortunately I fell into the trap where you have about a million photos taken of you but hardly take any yourself :(
I am going to re make this costume eventually, I lost about 10kg so I actually need to hahaha then io will take some better photos.

I read that you cut your hair to wear your warmachine, which is tough!
Shaving your head is really liberating and I think more people should. I would suggest having more than one costume you want to have a shaved head for in the works. I wish I had finished an Aurra Sing and Darth Maul in time to use my no hair! I took a few WIP pics I can dig up but it was mostly sewing, The armour is wonderflex with sewing over the top :)

One of the reasons I was really determined to do this costume was the amount of people who do Ventress costumes, put so much time and effort into the costume and then totally neglect the make up. If you look at her in the cartoon she is rarely plain white. I find make up is really under utalised in costuming and it's sort of my thing to bring it to the fore front of costumes, so thanks so much for noticing it :) I've got an Aurra and Darth Maul in the works so hopefully you will see more make up then :)

Great work, love it.
You've done a cracking job on the make-up too!

Thanks so much, looking forward to doing more :)
