This was one of the most elaborate shoots I have been a part of. It took over 3 hours to get ready, with the hair design Michael came up with and Eddie's meticulous latex prosthetic work (the wounds have wires and metal bits sticking out of them)... J. Corsentino then shot with me for several hours, and based on the images from the studio shoot created a multitude of vivid, dark and post apocalyptic images for his visionary world.
Before someone goes off about it - yes I realize I have fanciful heels on that might not befit the warrior angel character. I put this costume together in a couple of days and literally ran out of time before I could get matching shoes. A friend of mine graciously let me borrow a pair of silver heels from her and the photographer liked the added sex appeal. So why not! An all powerful battle angel should be allowed to look her best while destroying the world.
To be honest, it looks good. But I am thinking the authenticity would be better were you not wearing porn high heels and just a smattering of armor over ALL of your vitals..just sayin..
Just love this one. sorry I love angels lol and this is just fantastic. I love the detail in both the costume and what you chose for a back drop. Excelent all the way around.
Actually if anything high heels make sense because when you kick someone you could poke their eye out or stab them. They may not be suitable for running in, but this character has wings and doesn't look like she needs to run.
Honestly, I think the shoes tie in with the armor. Yes, it would be nice to have greaves in a perfect situation but in a fix, those shoes came out perfect.
You should do a cosplay of Yoko/Gally/Alita from Gunnm/Gunnm:Last Order/Battle Angel Alita/Battle Angel Alita: Last Order
