Hi everyone!
Okay, so I'm new to the cosplaying world although I absolutely love going to comic cons and events have been for years. A few months ago I went as Buffy Summers and it was a hit! I wanted to be a little more ambitious this time so I've decided to try Gamora. I'm so overwhelmed...and a little intimidated by all the other replicas I've seen. I'm crafty, but I can't sew that well. I don't have access to worbla, or a 3D printer or anything like that. Just a local craft store, haha.
I have a pair of faux leather leggings and a faux leather leotard with a mesh insert for the body suit. I was thinking about getting a leopard print stencil and using blue fabric paint for the decal on her jumpsuit. Everything else is still a thought process. I guess I just need suggestions and advice from other more experienced cosplayers on making a nice looking costume without breaking the bank or having to be a seamstress. I'm going for familiarity, not an exact likeness.
I'm especially stuck on the collar she wears and the best way to about the wristbands. I think I could figure everything else out in time.
Anyone feel like helping a rookie?
