Description THE SPANISH INQUISITION



This is what I spent my few free days over the summer making, and what finally debuted at Anime USA 2010 alongside a delicious Bloody Mary-era England worn by ~HeavenSealed .

The construction of this garment will be elaborated on in later photographs, since this is only a teaser, but I can say that I made the entire thing myself (save the hose and shoes), and it is entirely historically accurate for the time period, roughly the mid-1500's under King Philip II of Spain.

That's fantastic. I'm glad you posted a picture; I did see you at the con, but as it was mostly a rushed impression of wig and cloak as you swept on to wherever you were going, it's good to see the whole thing.

OUR MAIN WEAPONS BEING FEAR, SURPRISE, AND A FANATICAL DEVOTION TO THE POPE

I love that sketch, and the cosplay is great, too. Making a cosplay that is historically accurate can't be easy, and I commend you for it.

POKE THEM WITH THE SOFT CUSHION
PUT THEM IN THE COMFY CHAIR

Thanks! It involved some research, I will say that much. xD I was kind of a stickler about it since I'm majoring in history, so I was pretty serious about accuracy, haha.

Haha, I understand. my best friend's a history major, and I'm just a history nerd. XD;;;

Research is fun! My best friend and I are writing a Hetalia fanfic (actually, it feels like the fanfic's writing itself at this point), so research is almost half of it.

very neat! and you did a great job. i admire anyone who can sew and make cool costumes.
basic mending is about as far as i can go. i fail at the fashion arts.

Pirateswoop In reply to luckyraeve [2010-11-22 18:22:01 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much! It was an adventure to make, that's for sure. xD I used to think I would suck at sewing until I took a costume construction course as a fun-class at school, and now I'm hooked.
