My coworker loves to cosplay, and one of his favorites to do is Conan. His new girlfriend wanted to do a cosplay for Wondercon, so they decided on Red Sonja. He ordered the bikini online and she had the boots, but they came to me for the gloves, leg bands, and sword.
We agreed on terms about a month before, and due to obligations I had only a couple weekends and some small time during the weeks to work.
Reference
The reference we decided to follow was based on the comic books. The legband style was based on a cosplayer I found on Deviant Art
Gloves, Leg Bands, Sword
Build posts to follow. The Sword really wasn't anything other than an eBay foam LARP sword with some spare leather wrapped around the handle. The tip was all wonky from the mold, so I did some cleanup on that too

And finally, here are some pictures of the final result! This is her very first cosplay, and I think she did an AWESOME job embracing the community!
