gah.

Sooooo….anyone want to buy some Sif armor? I’m loathe to sell it, but following the epic Sif cosplay debacle of 2012…I’ve decided if I cosplay her again, I’d rather start from scratch with her Thor 2 outfit. That said, this baby needs a home.

Some specs. It’s made out of varying thicknesses of heat-shaped EVA foam…2mm, 4mm, and some 6mm. The “straps” are adjustable with 2 parachute buckles, and it also buckles once under the breasts, plus fastens with velcro for extra snugness. There are also parachute buckles for the front V pieces, along with velcro (which need a hot glue touch up - see below). The top two ab plates are connected to the rest of the armor, but the bottom four were originally velcroed to my costume (thus why you can see them hanging from masking tape in this picture…I was trying to show the full effect), so you’ll have to put velcro on them, since the costume isn’t included. The entire thing was sealed with plastidip and painted with automotive paint for the battle damaged, brushed-metal look. The top pic shows the coloring most accurately. It took me 20-30 hours to make the whole set.

The front V piece has some cracks in the paint from being squished a little in my suitcase on my way home from D*C, and the velcro parts (for fastening on the inside) need to be hot glued back in place where they’ve peeled up.

Other than that…this thing has only been worn once, so it’s in decent shape. It also comes with six arm bands.

You can look over the process of making it by tracking my Sif WIP tag.

Found this fantastic picture of me, Siffy, Thor, and Lopti at DragonCon 2012 randomly on google. My favorite part might just be Hulk’s flip-flops. Tehehe.

YESSS. There are so few good pics of us all together! We are FIERCE
