Time to make some costumes again.

Did have a clean up to figure out what we have and what we're missing of textiles for the Graaland project. 4 weeks for the deadline and I better hurry up to get the costumes done in time. A lot of wool, faux fur and pleather along with some other synthetic fabrics.

On location with Epica ("Skogen")

In late April, Epica had a medieval workshop, just to practice on action sequences. Of course we could have done it all in our regular clothes, but where's the fun in that? Our love for history and fantasy won over and the workshop got medieval inspired. After all, bows and swords are a whole lot cooler than guns.

More after the jump. 

Prison guard costume sketch ("Skogen")

While working on ideas for the not-yet-named project next week, I figured I could just call it Skogen (the forest) as the setting is in middle of a forest. Without knowing more of the backstory, I have given him dark colours, making him kind of a bad guy. After all, he is the prisoner's guard - it's not nice to keep prisoners. At least when the prisoner is more of a slave. :P
