High folks well here we go with my Shadow Guard WIP Build.

I may not post very often as I have a costume on the go for my daughter as time allows I will add to this for my build.

Ok thought I would start with the gloves, Gauntlets.

I have a nice pair of Black Nappa Leather gloves I intend to
Cut off the back and attach A gauntlet style cuff.
I have some black Nappa leather left over from another build.
I like to make s much as I can myself and I hate waste too


I will post the progress shots as I go.
Thoughts anyone ?

Well I have managed to get my black Velvet fabric
its a very nice black cotton velvet ace quality shame about the width means
poss one or two more seams but with the slit up the back I think I will get away with it ok.

Ok so last night surgery began on the gloves,
As you will see from the photos I cut the end of the glove off and made a cotton test piece
to check for size and fit before cutting into the leather.






I noted any changes on the test piece and proceeded to cut the leather



Then I stitched the outer seam and pinned the gauntlet section to the glove ready for sewing on.



Once stitched I turned the gauntlet section correct way round, happy with the result I just need to add the lining and then
Part 1 of my shadow guard bulled is done.

Nice. Excited to see your next steps.

Gloves all done very happy with the outcome.......

Lining Added



Cuff turned Over



Finished and it fits lol

Ok folks Gloves done so that's one more off my list know work starts on my belt and Buckle ......

Will post once the Belt is finished hopefully later.
