Armor for She Kills Monsters

[breakinglight11]

I delivered the foam costume armor for She Kills Monsters today. I'm pretty happy with how it came out.



This is for Tilly the main character, a queer high school nerd girl who created the D&D world in question. I wanted her to have a bold, graphic look with a signature color of blue. I like how this reads from the stage.



And this is for Kalliope, the elf PC in the mod. I wanted to reference the typical notes one expects for fantasy elves, such as the green and gold, plus I needed to make it a little sexy without excessively sexualizing the teenage actress who'd be wearing it.

I'm pretty happy with them. I've been working on them all week. They got tried out on the actresses today and they worked together pretty well.

That's lovely. Who is doing She Kills Momsters? I saw a production a year and a half ago and it was a great show.

Thanks! It's at Dana Hall, a private girls' high school in Wellesley. It's of course high-school level acting, but it's free and going up the 7th and 8th of November. :-)
