So, at my fabric store, we're doing a week of Halloween celebration this year, which means the employees get to dress up, too. I work five days, so I'll be dressing up in five themed costumes. One of which will be Link from the Twilight Princess video game. Here is a Google image of Link for reference.
I'm trying to stay as true to what he actually looks like as possible instead of going for a kelly green tunic and white pants, I'm trying for hunter green and cream pants. I'm thinking that I might even tea-dye the linen I'm using for the pants to make them look lived in. So far the process has gotten as far as picking out the fabrics I will use and starting on the accessories. I work with leather, so I'll be constructing his belts, the two bags he wears on his waist-belt, his sheath, gauntlet, and gloves. Hopefully all of that will be done in time. I've picked out my leathers and dye to make them all coordinate.
As of right now, I'm working on his bottles. :) You now what I'm talking about. Link can find a maximum of four bottles in the video games and he can carry lantern oil, milk, potions, and fairies in them to help him out.... I'll be making the bottle to carry.
