This breastplate was the big personal project I got finished up before last Halloween, but in the rush of prep for conventions in Jan-Feb I forgot to post it.
I had a lot of fun building it. I designed and pulled the pattern off of a duct tape dummy of myself, so it fits me very specifically. (Process shots here.) With the rigidity of the leather and the fit of the design, it basically acts like a corset.
Other photos of the visor can be found here and on my Tumblr, and it’s up for sale on my Etsy (either this one or custom colors), but the torso will stay a personal piece. I don’t currently have the torso forms that would be necessary to make stuff that is quite this carefully fitted. I still do want to try to work out a reasonable corset design though.
