Auron Costume from FF X

I have wanted to make this costume for a while now and finally had time to make it. I will go over as much detail as I can I documented as well as I could while I was building it. I copied the outfit mainly from one good image I was able to find on the internet.

Step 1 The Materials

For this build you will need the following materials and supplies (I will not be covering the sword in this build):

• Leather
• Corset boning rods
• Eye and hooks
• Belt buckles (2 heavy duty & 3 light duty)
• Leather brads
• Elastic
