Ezio Costume

Halloween 2010 costume. Ezio from Assassins Creed with working hidden blades :)

As typical for my halloween adventures, I only capture pictures in the morning. By nighttime there is way to much fun (like jumping and popping balloons with your blades) to be concerned with taking enough pictures. sorry :( I took a few random pictures and was able to collect several from pictures taken of me.

I made 3 working and wrist mounted hidden blades and chose the best 2 to actually use for halloween. the 'ible for making the blade part (not the mounting, sorry) can be found below:

Everything in this costume except pants and shoes was hand sewn by me. The hood was probably the hardest and worst part made. The cape and skirt-thingy were my favorite (I definitely plan to make Fridays as Cape Days!). Total expenses are estimated to be $70~$80 for the costume and $10 per blade. Also, some fun accessories were added such as 2 throwing knives and a powerful smoke bomb (used on public safety to avoid being chased, this worked to opposite effect).

I would have liked to but it would be hard to provide the sewing patterns since I was constantly altering the shape of them. So my original drawings were nothing like what I ended up with, such that sharing them would only confuse anyone trying to remake the costume. I wish I had clearer instructions for this as well, since I found it difficult myself to come up with everything. If there is a piece in particular that you find yourself stuck on ever, ask for help, I will see what I can do.
