Scandinavian? Haha NICE. I have a friend that is Swedish, she burns like butter on a pan Dude. That sucks. I am indeed thankful that I don't burn lolx
Yeah, Swedish is actually what I am, but it's a sub-division of Scandinavian. Down here in Eugene, we have a Scandinavian Festival every August. It's a weekend full of being proud that you're either Swedish, Norwegian, or Danish. xD It's a lot of fun.
Anyway, I talked with a friend of mine, and she said we could try to make the buckles out of craft foam.
http://www.entropyhouse.com/penwiper/costumes/helmsdeep.htmlThis is the craft foam tutorial she used to make her Rikku weapons, and I think it's a good idea.
I'm going to buy some ankle boots that I found at Goodwill, and find some leather/pleather to make some shoe covers or something to a similar effect. Then I'll make the craft foam buckles, paint them silver with some acrilic paint, do the whole sealant, Rub'n'Buff deal, and glue them on, and make it so they stay on with velcro in the back. Then I can just paint the sole of the boots the silver color, do the sealing routine again, and BAM, I've got my boots.
What do you think?
