The Hobbit: Lord Elrond Costume: Final

The final touches were attaching the stud covers to all the bare studs on the vambrace and boots, spraying acrylic sealer to all the surfaces covered by Mod Podge to seal in the tackiness of the gloss finish.

Here’s the “Wearing Sequence” panel I created to show how to wear the armor pieces in order.

… and my outdoor shot to show the natural color of the armor. Also shows how hot I was, falling out of bed and into my husband’s boots at 11 am -- I mean, literally hot -- it was 95F in the shade that August morning.
