MercerHitsuji Commission

Here's a piece commissioned by ~MercerHitsuji for her Harlequin (Assassins Creed Brotherhood [link] ) cosplay. Originally I was considering using leather and tooling the intricate layer underneath, but decided to use a brocade fabric. Construction went pretty smoothly, but what took most of the time was dying and getting the colors to match up right.

Harlequin's belt in the game has the narrow leather belt over a wider intricate belt, but the wider belt doesn't have any opening. So to make it functional, I just have the wider belt overlap itself and the opening can be worn in the front or back depending on preference.

Having made this makes me want to make more of these fabric underbelts and wear them under my utility belt or whatever. I think it looks great!
