Wintercostume at a wintercon, say what!

Start of the year and so on. Desucon was the first convention of the year and so on. And so enjoyable again, I never get to do all the things I'd want and hung out with all the people I'd want because time just flies away. But hey, I made a new costume!

After WCS I've had like three(well I always have more but they way I count this is kind of fluid) costumes I've been working on, and around the Christmas I made a decision of a fourth one I'm aiming to finish for Desucon this year. But since none of these was ready, or would be ready before Frostbite I decided I'd finally make Kahvi from Elfquest. I planned this costume for a year ago already, but you know how hard it is to try and find a winter fabric in yellow? Took me a whole year and I went abroad a few times in between as well. But yeah, so finally I found the fabrics and got two very busy weeks to try and squeeze in a bit of cosworking time.

This particular design is seen in her own sidestory where she's goes on a trip to discover her own past and heritage.

such CG, such colors

I didn't have time to make the hiparmor, and the spear could use some finishing touches but the funny thing is it actually doesn't even matter because the artist drew a whole page where (I think) they forgot she was supposed to have the armor and the glove details. Going to add those now, since it's just a small task and then the costume is 100% done in my opinion.

For the colors I decided to follow more the better made coverart. All in all the costume and the color choices are the most inconsistent in anything I've worked so far.
