One of our plans for the summer of 2017 was to do an Edward Kenway photoshoot on the beach. We had purchased the Cosplay Magic Edward Kenway costume, but I knew I wanted to improve the gauntlets – in leather. The design is pretty simple, but I loosely based the pattern off of the McFarlane toy version… just making them bigger to fit my arms. I used three types of leather on this project. When the gauntlets were finished, I then used the McFarlane hidden blades for the photoshoot – but would like to improve these as well.
If you have not seen the vlog about the photoshoot these were used on, definitely check it out here. Also be sure to check out some of the amazing shots we got at the Indiana Dunes!
