Pandaren Elder

This is my Pandaren Elder cosplay, made for Blizzcon 2013.  This represents a total of 10 months of work, and every piece of the costume is hand made.  The inspiration for this costume came from a piece of concept art for Mists of Pandaria, and required hundreds of hours of highly detailed work to bring the character to life, sculpting, painting, sewing.  This was a challenging project, but highly rewarding, as I total up the many new techniques I learned along the way.

Materials used in this project include: A variety of fabrics (in one case, painted by hand to get the exact pattern needed), leather, upholstery foam, plastic canvas, wire, resin, silicone, thermoplastics, oven-bake clay, styrofoam balls, ribbons, embroidery thread, yarn and velcro.
