so my mum and I did a lot of work on the costume today.  all we need to do is put on the boobs and upper arm pieces, and the suit itself will be finished.  then all we need to do is the gloves and boots.  no problem.

here's our progress:



the boots were taken in about an inch to make them fit my unreasonably tiny legs.



the boob pieces.  bigger than I expected!



cutting out the panels.



the finished collar and other assorted pieces.



mum sews the pieces to the suit.  it's a good thing she's here, I would have sewn them on by hand...




what we got done today.  not too bad, I think.

now then.  all that remains to do is as follows:

attach chest pieces
attach upper arm pieces
spray paint underside of collar/shoulders
attach collar/shoulders
construct arms/gloves
construct boots
buy loincloth fabric
buy chains
get hair dye

it seems like a lot, but I think we will be okay.
