Hilde Doppelgänger. ( DA dont take ä as title for pictures.)
Hi guys,
this is my latest costume.I work during 5 long and hard months on Hilde.
Why Hilde? She is from far my favourite character from Soulcalibur! First, I was in love with her IV outfit, but when the soulcalibur V was released, I found this one particulary interesting.
As I won at Paris cosplay a sewing machine, I wanted to give a try to this version for use the gift and make other thing than full armor.
It was very interesting to sew, to dye fabric and fur, to create patterns myself.
I spend more time on the fabric parts than the armor itself.
I made myself the purple jacket with " matelassé" aspect.
All is hand made, the chain mail, the helmet with the removing part on the top, the eperons, the belts...I dye the wig too in order to have the good " red/auburn".
The flag was the hardest part with the little red skit and the helmet.
5 months ago, I meet Laura, who worked on Hilde too, we shared lot of things thank to Hilde ^^ I was really happy to find someone who made Hilde in the same time.
I finally meet Laura during Japan expo, and she was really kind and funny!
Have a look on her gallery please :
During the con the weather was very very hot, it was hard to wear Hilde's outfit, but I was at ease on stage ^^
I was however very very tired and my face show how I was close to faint è_è
This is the link of my skit, sadly because of the light, no one saw my fighting pose at the beginning.
[link]I have really lot of good memories of Hilde, it was hard as hell, but I was happy of my work for this time.
Hilde is special for me ^^

I understand you for asthma, my mother has this illness ^^' it is very hard for her.So, take care of yourself!
For the moment, I spend 2-3 months suffering but I see the end.
I am not often sick, but when I caught a illness...it is very long ^^'
I know many people in the same case.I am very careful with health.
Your mother also suffers from asthma? I am very sorry for your mother it´s a bad illness. Thanks dear I was sick for two weeks, I got a severe bronchitis which was triggered by having my asthma and now wants to go not my cough.
Oh my I´m really sorry to hear dear I hope your feeling better now.
I feel better now but it was so hard to walk again... now, I can walk 7 km without too much difficulties, 45 days ago I was about 500 meters walk... I feel really happy now of my succes.It was frightening...
Now I realise health is really fragile.I am really carefull now.
I hope you are in better condition now.
Take care dear
