*********** Yaya on Facebook [link] ***********

Love this hero shot by Judy during the roof top photoshoot in New York last October. You can see my gear better in this photo - two hand guns, 1 on right leg harness, 1 on shoulder harness, combat knife on left arm, throwing knives on left leg harness (and not shown: set of 3 throwing knives on right arm harness). I also carried around a P-90 for more firepower :p

Character: Neena Thurman aka. Domino from Marvel's X-Force
Costume made and modeled by me
Photography by Judy Stephens of Marvel :iconthedreamerworld:

I completed this outfit in time for New York Comic Con, and for a chance to shoot at a unique Manhattan location.
As usual, this costume was created by me. After looking at many different outfits of Domino's, I decided on making the one from X-Force: Sex and Violence, because her storyline with Wolverine is just too badass not to pay homage to.

Since Domino wears a black bodysuit, I wanted mine to look a bit unique but still utilitarian, so I made a suit out of a rubber coated spandex and gunmetal grey knit, in a custom pattern designed by me. Unfortunately it doesn't show up well in photos so in the future I may replace the grey parts with a different, more eye-catching fabric.
The eye tattoo is a silicone patch which I cast in dyed black silicone, so I wouldn't have to paint it on every time.
I did the white face makeup for a photoshoot with Jay Tablante on the Wednesday before NYCC but during the convention I didn't want to paint my face white because right after hall closing, I had a dinner meeting in Manhattan. Didn't want to show up all gothed out O_O.

More photos coming soon, until then you can check out Judy's Costuming Recap blog on the Official Marvel website! [link]
