Just a quick update for tonight, it's late and I'm tired. A weekend of entertaining a (nearly) three-year-old monster, house-hunting and bad horror films has taken its toll...
So then, first off an update for the hood lining, complete with the extra-intricate double-stitched hems for strength and structure (done by eye, I might add):
And I finally finished cutting all of the pieces for the "shell" of the hood. It's a dark blue cotton drill, same as the lining, which despite the flash from my camera is actually a rich, deep red.
And that's not even a particularly complicated hood pattern... If you've noticed how some pieces look to be copied parts of other pieces, then well done, have a biscuit. I'll be doubling up some parts of the hood for added structure and detail lines.
More to come when I start getting the hood assembled; he shape should hopefully start coming together, including the staggeringly well-designed three-part mantel for easier movement.
Oh, and a motivational picture from Ubisoft's website. You can buy this product. It's life-size. And yours for a fiver under £2,000. House or statue? Seriously, house or statue..?
Stay tuned for more!
