Dragon Age 2- Hawke's Beltby *fevereon

Artisan Crafts / Costumery / Costumes / Cosplay & Role-Playing

So this was commissioned by

to make Hawke's belt for Katsucon... all good & dandy..

put it on the schedule and stuff..

..then find out on Thursday that Katsucon is THIS week, not NEXT week

so 3 all nighters, my fiance volunteering to help with the tons of sewing needed (and an allnighter from him too) here's the end result. Lesson learned- double check convention dates!

Anywhoo, Its made from various weights of veg tanned tooling leather, the latches on the leg strap & the big ol' buckle are custom made (send me a note if you need a belt buckle thing for your hawke mage cosplay)

After shooting these images, I decided to raise the bag of holding, as it was hanging a bit lower than I'd prefer. Its removable, so if Dan wants use it on other costumes, he can

Same with the leg strap

Big fat thanks to all who came to hang on webstream while I was working into the wee hours of the morning

you can check out the blog of the building process here! [link]

If you don't mind the question, where did you get the leather for this? I am wanting to make a Hawke outfit myself, but have had no luck with finding the right colored or textured leather!

Vegetable tanned tooling leather from Tandy Leather Factory!

you'll need to get dyes for it though, its natural colors is a light beige

Thanks so much, I have had no luck with the places I have searched.

With the dyes, do you have a specific and preferred type that you use that you feel works best?
Thanks again!

This is ridiculously amazing. Suuuuper accurate. I've gotta ask, how much does it cost to commission one?

The best thing about making belts with leg straps is finding out that, after-the-fact that, in order to keep the belt up on my thigh I had to sacrifice femoral vein blood flow.

The experience of having my leg pinched all day long at that convention was absolutely wonderful...

~ChibiNoi May 7, 2012

...damn you, Chrome. Making me double post the same thing. Now I feel foolish :shakefish:

My favorite thing about making belts with leg straps is finding out after-the-fact that in order to have the leg strap stay up on my thigh, I have to sacrifice blood flow from my femoral vein.

T'was not a pleasant experience having my leg pinched to death at that convention...

OMG!! I loved everything that you have created before and tought "wow, amazing! and she has a good taste" but that you even like Dragon Age.. damn girl! You are my hero!! o__O

ps: amazing work, again!!

Holy damn that's a big belt! Although I never did play DA2...I played Origins, and it's one of my favorite games of all time, but I heard DA2 isn't as good.
