Trinity Blood Queen Esther. A lot of time went into this costume. All of the dress is hand painted white satine(not satin) I painted it all myself. The dress was then hand sequined, and then sewn together. In the collar I used wire, and lace. The rose beads are hand made with paper clay, and painted. The roses and designs were all painted onto the dress. Craft foam was used for any metal looking parts. The rosary was hand made out of sculpty,baked, then painted. The pearl strands were all hand beaded, and the pearls that edge the dress, were also sewn on by hand.-like I said.. a LOT of work) I started this in Dec. 2006, and only got the back pannel of the skirt painted at school. I then had 2 months to complete the rest of everything, and the 3 other robes you will see in the group shots or Sister Noel,Father Tres,and Father Abel. We wore these at Anime North 2007.
